They're not magnetic. They're just little metal plates that sit in the cart slot (of the Genesis) and act as RF shields. And no, you don't need them.

genesis and megadrive 2

Sweet ... Thanks Guys ... I guess the only problem I am having is an incompatible Ver 1 Genesis with the 32x unit ... I have 2 version 2 .. although they are all scratched to h3ll they still work ... I'll redo the setup with one of those units ... as I get no video what so ever ... I do get sound ... and alittle text ( in black and white ) ... I'll let you know how I make out !!! :banana
