I mean... obviously this is a mistake... surely... but it's a pretty detailed mistake, hmm?

Dollars to donuts something JSR is coming.

Well, they already leaked Earhtworm Jim once, so...

Crazy Taxi already has a Steam version that uses other music. Like, right now. So they would likely just use that.
Yeah, I think I had it on the iPhone with that alternate soundtrack too.

I don't know if they would open the games up to those kinds of changes for a DC mini though.

LMAO at people thinking this would be a Dreamcast version. People please.

It would be something like Virtua Fighter 2, a 2D port.

Except that existed. Jet Grind Radio never did for the Genesis

You failed to understand.

People are acting as if the Genesis Mini will emulate the DREAMCAST version of the game.

If there is a Jet Set Radio added for the Genesis Mini, will be a 2D version just like Virtua Fighter 2 Genesis was a 2D version.

But that would be an all-new demake. VF2 on Genesis was something that already existed.

Well, duh. Assuming it's not a mistake, a demake is more believable than a 3D Dreamcast port on a Genesis Mini. After all, the Mini already includes two original 2D games built from the ground up.

the other post was trying to say there is no Jet Set Radio for Genesis, but there was a virtual fighter 2. They would not make a game specifically for this. The only possibility is that they are porting the GBA version

Please, PLEASE God let this be some mistakenly copy-pasted promotion for a Dreamcast Mini that's also in the works.

Highly, Highly doubt the hardware in the Sega Genesis Mini can emulate Dreamcast games to any decent degree, so this has to be a mistake

I am dying of laughter because technically you totally can play JSR with the 3 button MD pad.

A/B/C = jump/center camera+graffit/boost
dpad = movement/graffiti drawing

Good luck enjoying the game like that though.

A port of the GBA version to Genesis hardware is one of those things that seems unlikely, but it's M2 so if it was confirmed I'd be like "yeah, that sounds like them." Like, some pet project one of them was working on that they'd decide to throw in because they're cool like that.

Otherwise, they're randomly including a Dreamcast game (doubt it), they accidentally teased a Dreamcast mini (would they already be making plans ahead of the Genesis release? Maybe the pre-order numbers have been good? I think they said they were considering it but would base any future mini-consoles on the Genesis' success), or it has nothing to do with anything is a really odd mistake.

I agree the email is too specific for it to just be a whoopsie, so who knows. I could see a Dreamcast mini doing decent business for them, it's built a good reputation for itself as of late as the best console no one played. SA1/2, JSR, Shenmue, Crazy Taxi, Soul Calibur, Rayman 2, Code Veronica, Skies of Arcadia, Power Stone, MvC2, Ikaruga, there's plenty of winners.

R boosts
A tags (no camera control needed)
B jumps

Also you can boost continuously with no cooldown period unlike the original.

This would not be the first time M2 makes a retro game for a compilation.
