• SEGA Game Gear
• SEGA CD (Model 1 and 2, Add-on for the Genesis)
• SEGA Pico
• SEGA 32X (Technically an Add-on for the Genesis, but truthfully it only piggybacks on the AV connections)

Was referring to the 4 home consoles that got western releases and considering the CD and 32x as addons to the gen

They were only add-ons to cut costs for the end user, the 32X for instance was initially supposed to be stand-alone. Turns out that wasn't a good strategy. Anywho, as pieces of hardware, I'd give these add-ons special treatment since they have exclusive software.

Back in the 90s, out of all Sega's consoles I only got a chance to play the Genesis and the Game Gear. The rest of their consoles went under my radar.

Yeah I know the 32x was going to be a console (think they were calling it Neptune or something?) But I consider it a add-on due to the fact you need another console

Yeah, Neptune was supposed to be a 2-in-1 console, a Genesis with a built-in 32X. Then there was Pluto, a Sega Saturn with a built-in NetLink, but we're talking about never-released hardware here, so ehh.
