*32X was an accessory for the Mega Drive, and was launched here in Brazil by TecToy, which basically transformed it into a much more powerful console, with incredible games, but it was too expensive and too big, your console looked like a giant lump . It's very rare to find, I have one here in my collection, I like playing Kolibri and Chaotix, very good! Mortal Kombat 2 also looks amazing on it.
