There can only be one, like in that foreign movie where there could only be one, and in the end there is only one dude left, because that was the point.
Aren't Mega Drive and Genesis the exact same console?
What are you talking about? They're clearly completely different systems. Just look at the name. Genesis vs. Mega Drive. See, completely different.

I can't think of many Mega Drive games that were released in the US but not Europe right off the top of my head. Of course you being the mega Sega fan, I'm a bit surprised you don't have one. Thanks to you I picked up a WonderMega and the Japanese Sonic CD release.
IIRC, the MegaDrive (Japanese and European nomenclature) was renamed as "Genesis" in America because of some legal disputes, at least judging from what I looked up. I could be wrong, though.
One is NTSC and the other is (presumably for the purpose of this discussion) PAL.
Why would you rename a system in two different regions? That's just silly. Then everyone would get confused and talk past each other and crap.
Nope it's definitely two different systems.

@feenie: actually, according to wikipedia, Sega was unable to get the rights to 'mega drive' in the US back then. it happens all the time with regards to games and TV shows, why not systems? :3

Yes you should get a Genesis Model 1, the first one that says HIGH DEFINITION GRAPHICS on the top. I prefer the Model 1, I like the classic styling much more.

Mega Drive is clearly a superior console to the Genesis in every way. Genesis is American, and therefore spells words like 'colour' incorrectly. Mega Drive has a monocle and a cane and an air of sophistication.

@Raylax I always compared the Mega Drive to a fast car, not just because of its name. BLAST PROCESSING! SLICK METALLIC LOGO! 16-BIT HIGH DEFINITION GRAPHICS!
...Adding a monocle to that makes for quite a clashing image.
Also I have a working generation 1 Mega Drive, probably modded because I can run both NTSC-U/C, NTSC-J and PAL games on it.
