The weird platformer was already on its fifth game by the time Sega released the 16-bit Genesis, and it’s more of a quirky novelty than anything resembling a good game. Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castleįun fact: Before Sonic, the closest thing Sega had to a mascot was Alex Kidd.
We have a lot of confidence on most of this list, as Sega has released previous compilation packs of Genesis games as recently as last December on the Nintendo Switch.
But the initial reveal included only 10 of the 40 games.Īs we’ve done with the SNES and PlayStation mini retro consoles, we’ve compiled a list of games we’d like to see fill out the library. The Sega Genesis Mini is coming this Fall, and includes a digital library of 40 classic Genesis games. Ok have fun everyone Sonic and Mortal Kombat are calling you cant go wrong with this console.Given Sega’s track record of frequently releasing their old 16-bit games as well as licensing retro consoles, it’s no surprise they’ve decided to jump on the mini retro console bandwagon.
#Old school sega games 1080p#
It works with all my flat screens just fine mine are 1080p and it looks great no glitches at all. The buttons on the console are well made and work great.Like i said if you loved the original Sega Genesis you will love it and if you have kids show them what real games were like and i am sure they will like them also. Yes it is light the boards we use now are nothing like the old school mothe r boards like wise the controllers also but it is well made everything fits perfect and the controllers are very responsive. I had hundreds of dollars in my original sega back in the 80's-early 90's and now i have them all for 25$ bucks really no contest. Most people have to remember when the genesis came out we had low resolution analog tv's and now everyone wants these super graphics complex games on a flat screen.To me they are very good games like the originals.Sonic games Altered Beast and Mortal Kombat also Eternal Champions wow just wow. The games play perfect the graphics are the same the sound is good the controllers work very well. And i tell you its awesome and very fun just like the original console. I had a Sega Genesis and pretty much most of these games on the console. I really cant seem to figure out the negative reviews. If you liked the Genesis you have to get this console !!!! Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned Yeah, they feel a little cheap, but from what I remember from playing a friend's back in like '91, the entire system felt cheap, compared to a SNES. a couple of carts, you could be playing a few dozen.īTW - controllers work great. I figure I'll eventually get around and find a beautiful REAL Sega Genesis with box and such, anyways, but for the price of like.
Yeah, I know there's a new version, and whatever. Talking with your girl on the phone, with some Mortal Kombat 3 on in the background, brings back a ton of 90's memories, and for that, this wee Genesis rules. Don't let these pessimistic, 24 year old losers on youtube bring you down. I'm in love with Sonic 2 right now, that music on the chemical plant level is awesome, and sounds good to me! This is a perfect thing for me, I just bought a cart which works great- I have a ton of vintage games and systems, and if you take this thing for what it is, it's just as fun as the real deal. Yeah, there are like 40 stupid games on here, besides Genesis hits, but who cares.
I've since played a ton of games, via emulation, like that handheld, and this, so I have no idea if the sound is "off" or whatever, I just know it's really fun. This wee Genesis is a fun product!įun little system at a terrific deal! I have the handheld, with the SD cart slot, and that's an amazing handheld, this can't compare - I wish it had that slot, and a few extra games, like Chakan, the handheld has, but this is still a fun, inexpensive deal - Mine was like $27, looked like new to me! SO, back in the early 90's, I was an SNES/NES guy, and never really knew anyone with a Sega.
