i’ve seen a few pictures like this before but it only just dawned on me- why is the card 3dge connector for mega drive and 32X games the same? you’d think even if it was all the same signals they’d add a few duds to the 32X card slot so that you don’t try to plug a 32X into a 32X or a 32X game into a mega drive. even a piece of plastic like the ones used to keep 3DS carts from being inserted into a DS would get the job done. i guess they wanted you to always leave the 32X in even when playing standard games?
They did indeed want you to leave the 32x in for regular games. It came with brackets that kept the cart slot open and grounded the 32x to the genesis’ rf shield. They are a pain to put in and they fall out when you take the 32x out.
