Tbh both classic systems were prery well done by Nintendo
The shitty ones are SNK's and Sony's
Wasn't expecting much, but M2, 40 games, and it looks like it'll have some popular games that aren't usually in compilations. Might actually want to get this.
Cheers. It's a day one buy for me with or without Sonic 3.
It's honestly a bigger step up than Nintendo going from "jack shit" to the NES/SNES mini, because AtGames was literally worse than nothing.
On that note, I hope we get a US PR in the next few days with perhaps information on what we'll get in place of Puyo RPG and Rent a Hero. I understand holding back the rest of the lineup for marketing, but it'd be nice to get the first few region exclusives.
Having all the variants for games that have them will be nice though (and is a very M2 thing to do). Will help if we get any Streets of Rage games (especially 3).
Meh, and I find Eliminate Down to be overrated b/c of it's price tag. MUSHA and Thunder Force>>>>>all
OP

yeah nintendo made the snes mini even better than the nes version.
but YUZO and M2... man, this is so good.
Nah Eliminate Down is an excellent exclusive shmup
And Tatsujin is fantastic too! V-Five should also be there (an another console exclusive)
Wait, now THAT sounds nice. Sure, this fairly common for computer emulation, but the idea of one of these systems giving access to other versions sounds AWESOME. Loved it in their SOR collectins last gen.
I was joking in my mind that'd it'd be great to get at least 1 or 2 of the JP only games with a new US translation for a fun exclusive. Did happen with Monster World IV, right? Unreleased Starfox 2 made the SNES mini, so this would be an excellent exclusive.
Not going to happen
For quite a while. Unless you want piss poor emulation.
This is great. My old MK1 'HD' needs to be recapped badly, and I have a few dozen Genny games that I'd love to play in a more convenient way (assuming we can use our roms on it eventually).
Specifically Herzog Zwei, Thunder/Lightening Force series, Target Earth, King's Bounty, etc.

God damn, I hoped against hope that they'd get M2 and they actually did it. I totally understand why the Sega Ages Switch stuff slowed down a bit now, considering M2 isn't a particularly large company.
And to think I was bracing for an AtGames shitshow precisely a year ago. FES already delivered for me.

I'd take Grind Stormer over both. I did legit forget two of my favorite games though: Mega Turrican and Ranger X, so I'll swap Steel Empire and Road Rash out for those.

Damn.
I actually truly appreciate that, after so many years of bad mini consoles, Sega's finally dropping the hammer and doing it right.

Love that's the first model Genesis too.
Since I've been looking up games on eBay since getting the Mega Sg: man Bloodlines is crazy expensive, loose and complete.

first company in the business to embrace emulation shows everyone else how it's done in the end. It's poetic.
Sega, hands down, is the best company when it comes to emulation. From things like this to the steam workshop integration in the PC version of the megadrive collection, they go so far beyond when they actually give a damn.
Okay, yeah, there'll be a Famitsu stream at like 8 a.m. Eastern where there'll be more info.
Guessing they'll reveal more of the games then.
M2 is doing the emulation?!
CASTLEVANIA BLOODLINES IS IN?!?
...
I don't think I can handle how awesome this is already. Shut up and take my money, SEGA.
