The power adapter is the same as the type 2/type 3 genesis, you can also use the adapter from the 32x attachment. There were other appliances that used this same adapter, it wasn't exclusive to sega. The Pico system has no provision for batteries.

On another note, how is it that people are running Pico roms in Gens? The game books/control scheme (dual graphics tablets) would be much different than a genesis, even if it does have the same basic hardware.

Pico and Master System

[edit]

I don't know it for sure enough to add to the article, but based on the Pico demos I've seen in stores, I'm almost certain that it runs on the same hardware as the Sega Master System. The graphics look and move like Master System graphics, especially games that weren't that complex like crappy generic platformers. Since the Game Gear can play Master System games with nothing more than an adaptor to change the placement of the pins, Sega must have used these specifications for a few things, though obviously found smaller ways to make them. Does anyone know if a Pico is just a Master System in disguise?
