The SEGA Mega Drive Mini was released three years ago and has been a huge sales success as it accurately recreated the most successful games of the legendary SEGA Mega Drive console released in the 90s.
A few weeks ago, a Japanese company announced sega mega drive mini 2, but only for USA and Japan. Finally, he did not leave European fans stranded and announces launch of its new mini-console in Europe on the same day as in the US and Japan: 27th October.
The new mini-console will include 61 Mega Drive and Mega CD games. There will be about a dozen games that have never been released on the original consoles. In the intro video of the news, you can see all the headlines, except for one, which they keep secret.
The announcement is a bit of a disappointment for Europeans because what will come here is the SEGA Genesis Mini 2, that is, the North American version of the console, which had a slightly different design than the European Mega Drive 2, especially on controls, with 6 buttons.
SEGA has confirmed that It will be playable with the 3-button European controllers that come with the SEGA Mega Drive Mini. launched in 2019. We assume that now he will sell free controls again.
At the end of the day, it’s all about games, and here SEGA has outdone itself by including 61 titles, compared to 42 games on the previous console. What a great new in addition to Mega Drive games, there are Mega CD games, a CD player connected to the console, with some extra features to allow more complex games to be offered.
