MLX:
So I recently came across the site scanlines16. A french website qhich has quite some stuff about pirates.
This article was the most interesting:
http://scanlines16.com/retro-gaming/sega-megadrive/jeux-megadrive-chinois-taiwanais-russes/#more-2031
I'm not familiar with megadrive pirates but I guess some good box pictures is still good to show :)

Awesome Panda:
I hate to ask, but can someone translate the article or at least give a general summary? I can interpret the captions and that's about it. :unsure:

Did Winsen publish all of the originals or something like that?

MLX:
1st picture of the boxes:
The 3 on the left are from Winsen (广州市骊城工贸有限公司 or 星星科技 or 广州市天河永盛有限公司 according to the article). They got the right to produce some games for Chinese market. The quality of the box/manual seems to be good.

Then there's a list of Winsen games, this ends after the picture with Mickey. Then just a simple review of the megadrive in Russia, pretty much all the infos can be found on the videos.

Then the links pirategamemuseum and pirate game central (blog).

Awesome Panda:
When you say that they got the rights, do mean from Sega? To me, it sounds a bit odd for those Chinese pirates to be officially licensed. :huh:

BTW, if I remember correctly Volumerates are actually selling that "new" Mega Drive. I'd buy one myself, but I'm willing to bet that it's a Japanese console that doesn't accept US/European carts.

MLX:
The author said the Megadrive he got was freezing a lot but was regionfree.

EDIT: I don't know. Just translating the most important...
