The '''Master System 3''' is a [[Master System]] "console on a chip" which was manufactured by [[Tectoy]] and released in Brazil in 2008. It comes with 131 built-in games. It has no cartridge slot, but does come with two [[Mega Drive]] style control pads which plug into two [[DE-9]] ports. Most of the buttons on the pads are redundant as the console has no Mega Drive games.

The '''Master System 3''' is a console released by [[Tectoy]] exclusively in Brazil in 2008. It is a continuation of the long-running [[Sega Master System]] line seen in the country, succeeding the line of "Master System 3 Collection" consoles (which in turn followed the "Master System III Compact"). Like the last two models of its predecessor, this Master System 3 lacks a cartridge slot, relying solely on built-in games. It has a shorter name and also opts for a radically changed design over previous consoles, presumed to be unique to Tectoy products.

Internally, it is likely the same as the Master System 3 Collection with 131 games, since they have the same menu saying "Master System 3 Collection 131 Super Jogos" and share the same list of games.

The Master System 3 comes with 131 built-in games (or so it claims), the same number as the last Master System 3 Collection console to be released. It also comes with two [[Sega Mega Drive]]-style six button control pads which plug into two [[DE-9]] ports, although most of the buttons on the pads are redundant as the console has no built-in Mega Drive games.
 +
 
 +
Out of the 131 games included, the majority are Master System games and at least one game, ''[[Sonic Drift 2]]'' is a [[Sega Game Gear]] release, but others are mobile games produced by Tectoy. This is a "console on a chip", so the Master System/Game Gear support is emulated. Little is known about Tectoy's consoles from this period - Tectoy made no effort to differentiate platforms when compiling software lists. Some games were included in the [[Tectoy Mega Drive 3]].

The Master System 3 was replaced by the [[Master System Evolution]] in 2011. In 2016 Tectoy produced a limited batch of the {{PAGENAME}}, this time with the blue controllers also bundled with the Master System Evolution.{{ref|https://archive.is/Sv7cm|https://m.facebook.com/tectoyoficial/photos/a.519567654729773.120316.180189788667563/1177578228928709/}}

The Master System 3 is a console released by Tectoy exclusively in Brazil in 2008. It is a continuation of the long-running Sega Master System line seen in the country, succeeding the line of "Master System 3 Collection" consoles (which in turn followed the "Master System III Compact"). Like the last two models of its predecessor, this Master System 3 lacks a cartridge slot, relying solely on built-in games. It has a shorter name and also opts for a radically changed design over previous consoles, presumed to be unique to Tectoy products.

Internally, it is likely the same as the Master System 3 Collection with 131 games, since they have the same menu saying "Master System 3 Collection 131 Super Jogos" and share the same list of games.

The Master System 3 comes with 131 built-in games (or so it claims), the same number as the last Master System 3 Collection console to be released. It also comes with two Sega Mega Drive-style six button control pads which plug into two DE-9 ports, although most of the buttons on the pads are redundant as the console has no built-in Mega Drive games.

Out of the 131 games included, the majority are Master System games and at least one game, Sonic Drift 2 is a Sega Game Gear release, but others are mobile games produced by Tectoy. This is a "console on a chip", so the Master System/Game Gear support is emulated. Little is known about Tectoy's consoles from this period - Tectoy made no effort to differentiate platforms when compiling software lists. Some games were included in the Tectoy Mega Drive 3.

The Master System 3 was replaced by the Master System Evolution in 2011. In 2016 Tectoy produced a limited batch of the Master System 3, this time with the blue controllers also bundled with the Master System Evolution.[3]
