The Nasa New 16 Bit is a Sega Mega Drive clone console distributed in South America by a company known as "Nasa". It was a reasonably popular alternative to importing an official console.
It was also reported to be sold in a few European countries like Slovenia (from 1993 by Atlas), China (by Lee Star) and Spain.
Very little is known about the console, though it has a very peculiar shell half inspired by a Sega Mega Drive I and half inspired by an X'eye. It is assumed the system is incompatible with the Sega Mega-CD.
There is an 8-bit version which runs NES games called the "Nasa New 8 Bit". This version uses a very similar shell but has a different logo printed on the top of the unit.
