Sold.

Castlevania and gunstar heroes

Yuzo koshiro menu music is a nice touch.

Japan version gets 6 buttons pad, everywhere else the classic 3 button one. Still, I think I will preorder it. The game selection looks solid, and there's still 30 more titles tba

Not atgames is a big plus

Never owed a Mega drive, so think I will have to get this!

Nice that M2 are involved, but for the same money you can pick up an original console and a Mega Everdrive X3...

Only for dickheads like us with a scaler or a crt handy. Also you need to sort out your cables. And do the (admittedly little, but still some) leg work of sorting out roms. And then settings/jailbars/exact soundchip/whatever jumble of boxes you've gotten yourself into. Hopefully no dodgy power pack/broken pads. And no reward for the companies that can now at least curate these games (in some cases, the actual individuals who created them).

...This thing might end up a let down, but price isn't going to be the reason.

Cant wait,
hopefully At Games version will drop in price too.

It's a positive surprise!

This is a pretty cool list - Mega Man®: The Wily Wars - who saw that happening?

Have to assume this is M2's doing? Either that or Sega's gotten some good people involved in that merchandising dept...

... Stay on target... Stay on target!

Yeah, M2 are confirmed to be doing it.

It's really nice to see that Sega are putting an effort in to this. The game selection is looking great.

All three game lineups can be seen here:

There's still games to be announced.

Why is Thunderforce missing. Doesn't Sega own the rights to these games?

Final 10 games being revealed tomorrow 8PM Japan time.

Thunderforce III is in. IV probably isn't because they just released a port of it on Switch as part of the Sega AGES lineup and don't want to cannibalise its sales.
