SEGA has announced the SEGA Mega Drive Mini 2, preloaded with SEGA CD and 50 games from the SEGA Genesis era – known as Mega CD and Mega Drive outside of North America.
Games installed on the mini-console (via VGC) include Popful Mail, Shining Force CD, Silpheed, Sonic the Hedgehog CD, Virtua Racing, and more. It will also include a port of the game Fantasy Zone, which was not released on the original console.
The mini-game console will launch in Japan on October 27 for 9,980 yen ($75). Dates for other regions have yet to be announced, and more details may come later.
SEGA launched its first mini console in 2019, when it brought the SEGA Mega Drive Mini to market with 40 games installed. The console’s controllers are based on the US three-button controller, rather than the Japanese six-button version.
It has a slider that pushes the cartridge slot cover down, recreating the buttons of the original console. It also has four quick-save slots, has HDMI output, supports 720p resolution, and is powered by micro USB.
