I've read that the Sega HMD won't connect directly to the Genesis, but to a
Sega CD-ROM unit under the Genesis.  This makes sense since Sega would probably
want the extra processing power and 3-D graphics processor (as well as disk
storage) found in the CD-ROM for any VR-style games.  Although I've never
actually seen a CD-ROM unit up close, there appears to be some kind of a
slot/port on the front left side of the unit - my initial guess would be that
the HMD will connect there.  Anyone know for sure what kind of port this is?
