+
+Very similar to the [SG-1000](/museum/sega-sg-1000/), the SG-1000 Mark II was just a minor update consisting mainly of cosmetic changes.
+
+The case was redesigned and the joysticks of the Mark I were replaced by joypads which could be stored in built-in holders located on either side of the console. There was also built-in port where a keyboard could be attached, effectively turning the console into a computer. However, the Mark II was still outsold by it's computer counterpart, the [SC-3000](/museum/sega-sc-3000-sc-3000h/).
+
+In 1985 the Mark II was replaced by the [Mark III](/museum/sega-mark-iii/), the first version of the [Master System](/museum/sega-master-system/).
