The Brazilian company GamesCare has introduced the GF1 Neptune, a console inspired by SEGA's 90s project that never came to fruition. In case you didn't know, back then the Japanese company thought of a console that combined the Genesis | Mega Drive and the 32X due to the development and sales issues of the latter system, considering it a good idea to merge it with their successful 16-bit console. However, the SEGA Saturn was already on the horizon, and the project was canceled.

tl;dr an FPGA based console using the design and concept behind 1995's cancelled Sega Neptune - a combination Genesis/32X in a single unit. It will also support the original Sega CD hardware add-ons

I'm totally down for this if it's available outside of Brazil
