It plays North American Genesis games and has a switch enabling Japanese Mega Drive titles to be played. It's aesthetics resemble the Genesis 3. It ships with two six-button controllers and A/V cables for a recommended price of $59.99.
The compatibility of the Gen-X Dual Station is fairly good (more than the GN Twin), and is compatible with the Master System Converter II. There also appears to be another revision called the "Gen-X Hybrid Twin Console" produced by Retro-bit. This revision lacks the "Gen-X" label on the front, but otherwise looks identical; no shots of the actual console from this revision are known to exist.
