Answer

The Sega CD, also known as the Mega-CD outside North America, was an add-on released for the Sega Genesis in 1992. It allowed the console to play CD-based games, which offered improved graphics, sound, and storage capacity compared to cartridge-based games. The Sega 32X was another add-on released later, but it was a separate device that plugged into the Genesis.
