    You can't use the 32X adaptor on a nomad, and Golden Axe 2 is the only game I can confirm doesn't work with nomad. It turns on, but the controls are all messed up, rendering it unplayable.

    Isn't there a 'mode' button on the Nomad though like the 6-button controllers?

    I guess the nomad wont play the genesis games that play just on models 1.

    Zany golf, budokan and some other of the early EA games...

    Good God.

    Hold the Mode button down through startup, and Decap Attack, GA2, and other 3 button only games will work fine.

    It won't play the early EA titles that don't have the lockout info. It of course won't play SEGACD or 32X games.

    So in short, it will play all genesis carts except for a few early EA games that most genesis consoles won't play either.

    Not really, I tried the Mode button on Decap Attack, it still doesn't work right.

    I got "Budokan" to work on both a Genesis 2 and the Nomad via using the Game Genie as a "pass through".

    So outside of any control issues those early EA games should work.

    Possibility is infinity! You must be satisfied!

    If Decap attack does not work, you are not holding the mode button down long enough. Hold it until you see a Decap attack splash screen, not just the SEGA splash screen.

    Ms. Pac Man does not work on the Nomad.

    IIRC Virtua Racing does not work. I may be getting that mixed up with something else though (like the Genesis 3).

    Both of these games work on my Nomad. Genesis VR works totally issue free, and Ms. Pac Man requires you to hold down (not press, but HOLD DOWN TILL THE GAME ACTUALLY LOADS) the mode button to work.

    I'm beginning to feel like a fire fighter here.

    Yes VR will work on a Nomad!
    VR does NOT work on a 32X + Genesis 2 combo. It probably runs fine without the 32X but I haven't tested it yet.
    And I can confirm Budokan as a non working game also. This game only works on model 1 Genny's.

    I might have been thinking of the 32X then.

    Surprised to hear about the Ms. Pac Man trick! Too bad I got rid of my Nomad long ago.
