I live in the US. What do I need to play Pal sega genesis games?
If I got a Pal Genesis (mega drive) would it work on a US TV?
Or is there a NTSC to PAL genesis adaptor??

I think all you need is the 50/60 Hz switch.
There's some information on some mods here:

That seems really complicated. Anyone know another way?
A lot of Pal games can work in a North American Genesis without issues, I have a Kid Chamelion Mega Drive game that works fine for me.
I think there are converters available but very rare/expensive. Can anyone confirm this? Magic Key or something?
I believe these are pics of the converters;

EDIT:
Okay, I found a pic of a converter that works for US/Europe games, a Super Mega Key.

A PAL Genesis should work with most newer televisions through composite video, since most LCDs and PDPs are multi system.
no mods are required just use a us Genesis power pack and a rgb lead and will work fine if you plan to get a pal console
i am in the uk and i have a few us consoles with sega Genesis i just use a uk power pack and no stepdown convter needed hopes this help you
