===FM Sound UnitFrom SG-1000===
;Sega Graphic Board
Also known as ''Terebi Oekaki''. Includes a graphic board attached to a cartridge. Can be used on SG-1000, SC-3000, Sega Mark III, and Japanese / Korean models of Master System. Another version made for the International Master System models was planned to be released and even advertised but was canceled (both ROMs are dumped).
 
MEKA supports both variants of the Graphic Boards.
 
;Keyboard
Named ''Sega Keyboard SK-1100''. It essentially adds some of the missing features of the SC-3000 to an SG-1000 or Sega Mark III. It is not compatible with the Japanese / Korean models of Master System due to pinout differences in their respective expansion ports.
 
Kega Fusion, Meka, and MAME support this keyboard. It can also be used with the Japanese version of ''F-16 Fighting Falcon'' as well.
 
;Data Recorder SR-1000
Datacorder that allows common cassette tapes to be read and written with the BASIC software from SG-1000 or SC-3000. On SG-1000 (or Sega Mark III), the presence of a SK-1100 is required.
 
MAME supports reading and writing cassette tape images. blueMSX also had planned tape support for their SC-3000 driver as well.
 
===Master System only===
 
;FM Sound Unit
Optional soundboard released for Sega Mark III. Was included by default in Japanese models of the Sega Master System. Features a Yamaha YM2413, which was been used in many MSX games. Some games with FM Sound Unit support were not released in Japan, while others had FM Sound Unit support unused or incomplete, which, for the former, must be activated with manipulation in the system's RAM (e.g.: Pro Action Replay).
Most known emulators such as Kega Fusion, MEKA, MAME, and Genesis Plus GX do support this add-on. Unfortunately, this soundboard was not carried to the Sega Genesis by any means and must be modded by the owner or through flash carts such as ''Mega Everdrive X7''.
===;Light Phaser=== 
A light gun that was released pretty much everywhere outside Japan. Some games such as ''Safari Hunt'' require this accessory to be played.
Kega Fusion, MEKA, MAME, and Genesis Plus GX support Light Phaser controls through Mouse input.
===;Paddle Control=== 
A dial controller that was released only in Japan. It functions similarly to Taito's Arkanoid / Vaus controller for NES and MSX. Most games that support this controller actually require it.
Kega Fusion, MEKA, MAME, and Genesis Plus GX support Light Phaser controls through Mouse input. Some games are patched to be playable with a Control Pad or even with Sega Genesis Control Pads.
===;Sega Sports Pad=== 
A trackball controller that was released only in North America and Japan. The American version is more complete, as it is bigger and has switches that allow it to be used as a Control Pad, while the Japanese version lacks this switch and is smaller. It is only used in ''Sports Pad Football'' (also known as ''Great Football'', without Sports Pad support), ''Sports Pad Soccer'' (also known as ''Great Soccer'' [Cart version], ''World Soccer'' and ''Super Futebol'', all of them without Sports Pad support) and ''Great Ice Hockey''.
MEKA, MAME, and Genesis Plus GX support Light Phaser controls through Mouse input.
===Sega Graphic Board===;3-D GlassesKnown as ''SegaScope 3-D Glasses'', it is a 3D glasses set to be used within the Card port (or with a headphone jack in Japanese models of SMS). It works similar, but way better, than Famicom 3D System games.

;Game Genie
Cheating device that was released by Galoob in North America and (also developed) by Codemasters in Europe. It was released as an official device licensed by Sega, alongside the Sega Genesis version.
Many emulators such as Kega Fusion, Genesis Plus GX, MAME, and MEKA support Game Genie codes as an in-emulator feature, but none of them supports Game Genie as a Lock-On method due to the Game Gear version's ROM being undumped for years.
===;Pro Action Replay=== 
Cheating device that was released by Datel in Europe. Unlike Game Genie, it manipulates with both systems' RAM and is not licensed by Sega.
Many emulators such as Kega Fusion, Genesis Plus GX, MAME, and MEKA support Pro Action Replay codes as an in-emulator feature, but none of them supports Game Genie as a Lock-On method due to both Master System and Game Gear versions' respective ROMs being undumped for years.
===Gear-to-Gear Cable=== Released for the Game Gear, is a cable that allows two players to compete with each other in several games. The 3DS Virtual Console emulator, m2engage, allows Gear-to-Gear Cable emulation through Local Play. Alternatively, the Game Gear emulator used in ''Sonic Origins Plus'' also allows several Sonic games to be used in their respective Versus modes. ===;X-Terminator=== 
A series of cheating cartridges/discs, which was released across multiple video game systems in Japan. There is one for Game Gear, which has also been sold in the US and certain Mandarin-speaking countries (e.g.: Hong Kong). The code format is similar (if not identical) to the Pro Action Replay ones, affecting the system's RAM values.
