The Songa II is an unlicensed Sega Mega Drive console released in Brazil and Argentina. It was the successor to the Songa I, though is mostly identical aside from the new case design. It was also released as the MG-16R and MGW-16 (a presumed successor to the MG-16) by Electrolab, Pro 16 Bit (succeeding a previous "Pro 16 Bit") by Steepler and Super Bitman by Bitman which also had a version modeled on KW-501. The Songa II shipped with wireless six-button gamepads, and is fully compatible with the Sega Mega-CD.

After Bitman became a Sega distributor, the console was called the official clone in Russia.[1]
