      I’m hoping for a replica of the Arcade Power Stick that I can use with the Mega Sg. Preferably with a nice micro-switched stick like the original Japanese one.

        That would be nice but will never happen.

          I'm hoping 8bitdo do are wireless MD Mini version of their M30. They catered for the SNES Classic.

            Yeah, I mean I'm not too fussed about missing out on Street Fighter and Comix Zone and yeah, I can easily pick up a six button one here but I just think it's wierd they split the skus. The classic 3 button I guess is more nostalgic for most people, and matches that console but comfort wise I will be picking up some additional controllers. Now, where is that multitap....

              I think I've mentioned this before but I might be one of the few people who is actually looking forward to some 3-button SF

              I mean if I wanted to play the full-fat version I have it on other platforms, but back-in-the-day, I had to play the 3-button version because that's all we had. It's nostalgic to me.

                    These - https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B07QB9TR...ZXBCPZ5HD8ATYZ

                    Have they also been announced for the West too then?

                    Apparently, Sega have confirmed the Retrobit controllers will work though.

                        Totally liking how right they seem to be getting this it’s like they looked at the shatgames version and did the exact opposite in every way.

                          The Japanese site gives a little insight to the menu, menu music and saving...

                          Re: menu
                          A menu screen with 40 packages lined up at the time with nostalgic packages. It is also possible to switch the order in the order of sale, in the order of the Japanese syllabary, or in the same genre.
                          You can also fit 40 titles on one screen by switching the screen.
                          In addition, the music and sound effects that flow here are handled by Hito Anzo, a hit maker who works on a number of masterpieces of music from the era of mega drive to the present age, such as the Bear Knuckle series and the Labyrinth of World Tree series You are

                          Re: Saving
                          For all games, you can save up to 4 locations per game anywhere in the game. You can save at any time if you want to use a short time to advance the trick game, or during a long event. In addition, because it is possible to save immediately before the stage or boss with high difficulty, load many times and play repeatedly, you might be able to see the ending of that game that you could not finally clear at the time.

                            (it's Yuzo Koshiro)

                              Funny, the site actually says Yuzo Koshiro in the credits at bottom of page and refers to this Hito Anzo on the page

                              EDIT: Ah google translate has done this

                                I loved Hito Anzo's work on Bear Knuckles.
