Sega is set to release a mini version of the classic Genesis console later this year, and previously had announced 20 games that will be on the console. However, today they have announced 10 more games that will be included, which contains some fan-favorites.
Some of the heavy hitters include Mega Man: The Wily Wars, Street Fighter 2: Special Champion Edition, and Golden Axe. The Wily Wars contains remakes of the first three Mega Man games, which never saw a physical release in the US. The following is the list of the 10 new games announced:
Mega Man: The Wily Wars
Street Fighter II’: Special Champion Edition
Sonic Spinball
Phantasy Star IV
Beyond Oasis
Ghouls ‘N Ghosts
Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle
Golden Axe
Vectorman
Wonder Boy in Monster World
These join the previously announced 20 games, which are the following:
Sonic the Hedgehog
Ecco the Dolphin
Castlevania: Bloodlines
Space Harrier II
Shining Force
Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine
ToeJam & Earl
Comix Zone
Altered Beast
Gunstar Heroes
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Earthworm Jim
Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse
World of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck
Contra: Hard Corps
Landstalker
Streets of Rage 2
Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master
Super Fantasy Zone
Thunder Force III
While 30 games is nothing to scoff at, there’s actually still more to come. There are still 10 more games that have not yet been announced for the console, bringing the total up to 40 games. It remains to be seen when the final batch of games are announced, though it will likely be a couple of months away. The Sega Genesis Mini is set to launch on September 19th and will cost $79.99. It follows the trend of companies releasing miniature versions of their classic consoles, as Nintendo and Sony have done recently.
