As I recall, when you flip the top you see a slot instead of a CD drive
spindle. Which makes the flip top more decorative than functional. The
idea is that these are budget machines intended for a market segment that
might not be able to afford a system with disc-based media. Not that it
would fool anybody, but a casual glance at the console and its controllers
might not reveal how fake and unlicensed these things are.

Believe me, there are plenty of HKO Mega Drives. I used to own a Scorpion
XVI, which I bought in the high street here in the UK back when the console
was top of the range

It has switched near the MegaCD plug in slot that allows you to select PAL
or NTSC and 50hz or 60Hz refresh.
