The Arcade Ultimate, possibly known as the "Gopher" is a handheld Sega Mega Drive console on a chip created by AtGames. It is an enhanced version of the Arcade Portable, with the addition of a 6-button control pad (instead of 3) and a built-in lithium battery with USB charger.

Like its predecessor, the console relies on SD cards, though does not support saving, making RPGs difficult to finish as they must be played through in one sitting. Also like its predecessors, the actual name of this console is disputed - AtGames call it the Arcade Ultimate on their website, but it has been labeled as the Sega Mega Drive Arcade Ultimate Portable, Sega Genesis Firecore Portable Player and Sega Mega Drive Firecore Portable Player.

The Firecore uses the same "console-on-a-chip" technology as its predecessor, and has an identical selection of games. However, the SD card input should allow most Mega Drive games to be played, emulation permitting. It also has a TV output connection, so that games can be played on a large screen, though it will only produce a NTSC signal.
