Don't all sega consoles use standard philips head screws? I know i've openend up my mega drive,model 1 before.....along with the carts also.And I didn't need a gamebit..

I beleive only fools like nintendo bother with silly hardware protections,although microsoft used torx screws...which can still be hacked apart with standard screwdrivers.

I've opened a Genesis Model 1 and a Model 2 with a Phillips Screwdriver. I think you need a gamebit to open the cartridges though. Usually it's just Nintendo that uses those. Nintendo, they also use tri-wing screws a lot on Gameboy stuff.
