Will a Sega Genesis cartridge work on the 32X - Car Being Washed in a Car Wash

Can you plug in a regular genesis 16-bit cartridge into a 32X for better performance or graphics? I'm seeing people on YouTube play Genesis games on the 32X but I'm not sure if their ports. In other words if I buy a 32X and install it, will I have to unplug it to play genesis games?



Best Answer

Yes.

Additional information : The 32x displays the video a bit better. The model 1 Sega Genesis consoles can be prone to "rainbow banding" and the video encoder in the 32X provides better image quality.
