If this thing doesn't suck, I'll probably pick it up. The problem with all of the other Sega Genesis mini consoles, at least that I've tried, is that they are terrible. There's so much lag that the games become basically unplayable.

I started gaming in the early 80s, but Genesis hit right around the time I was old enough to really understand and enjoy gaming. I have a lot of fond memories. This thing is aimed right at me. But, I'll have to wait for reviews, to make sure it will be a pleasant experience.

Sounds pretty good to me until now. I hope they don't screw it up.

The only thing that can get me excited about this is ports to attach a mini Sega CD and mini 32X. I also want the mini Saturn shortly after the mini 32X launches.

EW Jim, ahh yeah. I've already got so many ways to play these games, but I appreciate the little nostalgia machines.

I swear this is like the 4-5 Sega mini console. And the other ones had like 70-80 games built in. I really dont understand the point of this new one. Can someone explain to me?

I'm pretty sure the 4 to 5 ones that you are talking about that have 70-80 games build in aren't made or officially licensed by Sega like this one is.

Sorry i dont know if putting 3 links in a single reply would've worked since you cant make paragraphs in these comments. But ya if those arent licenced by Sega then they mustve gotten the rights to do it. Those just seem so legit by Sega but i never researched them up. I think one of them even has an actual slot to play your physical sega cartridge games too which I think that's very cool.

Oh i see on the top of the box of those version of the links i sent you were by AtGames. So I guess those were just third party with Sega's approval, but then i guess this one here that's being released is Sega's officlal one. Seems like the third party might have done it better seeing as this new one might be lacking in terms of the amount of games, and no actual cartridge slot.
