Today SEGA announced the next ten classic games that will appear on its SEGA Genesis Mini. The headliner is Mega Man: The Wily Wars, a compilation of the first three Mega Man entries, once exclusive to the SEGA Channel in North America.
The Blue Bomber will have some competition, though, because here comes a new challenger—Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition, one of the most iconic fighting games of all time.
In addition to a host of newly-announced games, SEGA unveiled the Retro-Bit SEGA Genesis and SEGA Mega Drive 6-button controller, which will be released in late August with a price point of $19.99.
The Next 10:
- Mega Man: The Wily Wars
- Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition
- Ghouls 'n Ghosts
- Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle
- Beyond Oasis
- Golden Axe
- Phantasy Star IV: The End of the Millennium
- Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball
- Vectorman
- Wonder Boy in Monster World
The final 10 games will be announced in June. SEGA Genesis Mini will launch with 40 total games on September 19, for $79.99.

This is shaping up to have a much better library than either of the Nintendo classic consoles. I suppose that easier to do with double the games. Still, it makes the thing a much more likely purchase for me..... If reviews indicate that it doesn't have a bunch of lag or some other terrible problem to ruin the experience.
Awwwwesome, Beyond Oasis for those in Europe will know that game as The Story of Thor and it had a very odd prequel on the Saturn called The Legend of Oasis, it's a little bit of a culty classic but really worth checking out for the great huge sprite work in the game.
And wow, basically getting the first 3 megaman NES games into the mix with this. That adds a ton of value to the lil machine in my opinion.
Yeah, beyond oasis is a hidden gem. Thanks for reminding me to find a copy.
Not a bad list of games, i want to check out Phantasy Star 4
If you like Dragon Quest 4, Final Fantasy 4 (called II in the states), or Super Mario RPG then you'll like Phantasy Star IV. It's about as good as those games. IMO it's a solid game, but showing a bit of age.
Sega has understood what kind of games should be in a mini-machine, we want a variety of 1st party and 3rd party games. I only wish there would be like 100 games instead of 40 🙂
Kinda wish they'd stop ignoring the other Alex kidd games. I've already got a Sega oldies collection on PC, that also happens to include the very same Alex kidd game they're stuffing into that box. Sega, just add the other two for the love of god.
Great to see SF2 there but the SNES version was better.....Overall a great looking package I'm interested...
YES! The Wily Wars! What an impressive line up.
