Sega announces Mega Drive Mini

[QualityChimp]

How is this any better than the Switch MD collection?

[Dogg Thang]

Their track record with this kind of thing is very poor. M2 is a great sign but I remain a little sceptical about how the hardware will be. But yeah, I really hope it’s good because this could be a great little trip down memory lane.

Im hoping it's at least up to the quality of the snes & nes mini, thats the standard i expect of sega.

[Dogg Thang]

40 games is pretty decent too. I just hope the full list is good. I also hope the system is to scale with the SNES Mini.

The list is in the link.

Oh, sorry lol. Gematsu made it into two separate articles which led me to think that the EU/NA list was announced much later

[J0e Musashi]

The ten EU/US games have been announced:

Altered Beast
Castlevania: Bloodlines
Comix Zone
Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine
Ecco the Dolphin
Gunstar Heroes
Shining Force
Sonic the Hedgehog
Space Harrier II
ToeJam & Earl

Gonna pre-order this for sure. Really hope Rocket Knight Adventures will be on it

JPN one obviously has SFII, where the western ones do not. 6B controllers etc.

but I’m hoping it will be hackable as I want all the wonderboy games on there and magical flying hat as that’s my most loved md game out of everything.

I hope it's hackable.



I remember buying it cheap at a computer fair in 1991 and not knowing anything about it.
The box art really grabbed me.

Turned out to be a great game that I've always enjoyed going back to. A hidden gem sort of game.

M2 involved with the software on this is excellent, but has it actually been confirmed that ATGames aren’t doing the hardware?

If they are, it’s still a hell no for me.

And just watch SEGA scew it all up with the games M2 already ported to the 3DS or it various collections. Hope we get some gamed that haven't been part of any collection so far.

Well so far that first portion of the Japanese selection isn’t too bad but I’m hoping it will be hackable as I want all the wonderboy games on there and magical flying hat as that’s my most loved md game out of everything.

Looks like Sega are taking this seriously. Maybe something to do with the huge sales of the Nintendo minis? I wonder if the guts of the SG will fit inside the Mega Drive mini shell?

[Leon Retro]

The design of the console looks really good, so if it turns out to be a decent piece of kit, I'll try to grab a Japanese version. Fingers crossed.

M2 ... I'm in. Great news

[Team Andromeda]

I mentioned Sega would get M2 months ago when they announced they were fu#king off Atgames and going with a Japanese partner. It was the obvious choice considering all the work M2 has done with Sega over the years.
