Yes, but you can't physically fit it into the opening leading into the cartridge slot. You have four options. Either remove the top of the shell on your MegaDrive/Genesis, or the plastic shell of the cartridge, and put the clean PCB in. Not pretty, but it does work.
The Sega Genesis, known as the Mega Drive outside North America, is a 16-bit fourth-generation home video game console developed and sold by Sega. The Genesis was Sega's third console and the successor to the Master System.
Importantly, we're offered key benefits of modern gaming: the Mega Drive mini lets you save games at any point so you don't have to complete the whole of Gunstar Heroes in one sitting.

The Flashback includes an actual cartridge slot, meaning that in addition to playing all the games that come pre-installed in the unit, it also supports any Genesis cartridge you already have.
In the years since, Sega Genesis games have become highly collectible, steadily increasing in value and rarity. Naturally, there are many rare Sega Genesis games on the market, ranging in price from one hundred bucks to tens of thousands of dollars.
The best one is a Model 1 Genesis that has "High Definition Graphics" written around the cartridge port. Those have the best sound. Later Model 1's that don't have that written on it and model 2's have noticably worse/distorted sound.
Yes, just hold down the start button and you can create save states. Yes you can save up to four save states per game. The quality build is very good and the emulation is done by M2 . First time an official hardware is being made by Sega.

But I digress. I asked what you think* your *Genesis is worth, and your Genesis is probably not a busted Mega Drive. If your Genesis is a normal old second-edition American model, it's worth a whopping 17840 yen -- about $185 -- in the same store.
That's right, it's now possible to play Sega Master System AND Game Gear games in HD! Plus, you can also use this adapter in your original Sega Genesis!
Nearly as good as real thing. Graphics are almost as good as the original, but you'd think 20 years down the line; the graphics would be as sharp or even better with new technology. You can play all your old Sega Mega drive cartridges via an inlet in the top.

The genesis does not have a native save feature. Certain games do have the ability to save, but it's a feature of that cartridge, not of the genesis.
The $79.99 Sega Genesis Mini nails all of the basics, with great, adorable hardware and a varied selection of classic games. But it also goes a step further, with an attention to detail that makes it more than just a fun plastic box: it's a celebration of the most important years of Sega's long history.
The Sega Genesis Mini will be about half the size of the original console, but its look is essentially identical to it. As with the majority of plug-and-play systems, it will not support the original Genesis' cartridges.
Sega began work on the Genesis' successor, the Sega Saturn, over two years before the system was showcased at the Tokyo Toy Show in June 1994.
The general consensus seems to be that the Atari Flashback X is the best one currently released.
Just connect your single RCA cable from the console to the box, then connect a coaxial cable from the box into the cable or antenna port on the back of your TV. Switch the box to "game" when you're using it, switch to the TV/Cable input manually, and don't let your TV try to auto-tune its way to a signal.
Even the flaps for the cartridge slot work, though of course you cannot insert any cartridges into it – original ones won't fit, and the games that the Sega Genesis Mini run are all pre-installed in its memory.
