Company
ZOGA specialized in home electronics like DVD players, and additionally produced clone consoles of other systems like the Nintendo Family Computer. The company manufactured products with their own branding, but were also responsible for manufacturing products for other clients, such as the Simba's Mega Drive V and Mega Drive Extreme, and even offered buyers international shipping.
Sometime in 2021, ZOGA's website went offline.
