Um have you tried eBay? --Elven6 04:10, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Look you. Wikipedia is a ENCYCLOPEDIA not an ONLINE STORE! Besides who wants Sega Pico games anyway, there for babies.--Souvalou (talk) 00:49, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

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?

From what I know, the Pico uses a 16 bit CPU, making it unlikely that it's based on SMS hardware. Considering this, and the 1994 release date, the Pico is probably based on Mega Drive hardware. I sure would love to get one... --Saoshyant 12:57, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
Check out Hidden-Palace.org's Pico rom prototype releases, they are MD based. (Run in Gens emulator) 66.82.9.57 (talk) 22:35, 25 February 2008 (UTC)Anon

does anyone know where to get an adapter for the Sega Pico system.  Also, does the system still need batteries to operate?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.66.185.94 (talk) 21:25, 28 March 2008 (UTC) 

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.

You can't "Play" the ROMs per se, but they do boot up, and some of them have attract demos. There's also an emulator called PicoDrive, IIRC, which has more handling of Pico inputs. There's only a scant few ROM dumps from actual releases, though, the rest are leaked prototypes--173.49.97.79 (talk) 04:08, 16 April 2010 (UTC).

It requires only two RCA connector cables to connect a monitor with audio. VCR won't be needed if you don't record to a tape.
