SEGA does what NINTENDON'T. And by that, we mean they arrange their classic games in grid formation instead of in one long horizontal row.

We were originally going to put this up tomorrow so the entire set is November—December, but screw it, Halloween special!

The Sega Genesis Mini, known as the Mega Drive Mini in regions outside of North America, is a dedicated console modeled on Sega's Genesis. The Mini emulates the original console's 16-bit hardware, and includes 42 games ported by M2. It was released in most regions on September 19, 2019.

The Mini is half the size of the original Sega Genesis video game console. It includes either one or two (dependent on region's bundle options) full-size replica controllers that connect through USB—thus original controllers are incompatible—a USB-to-Micro-B power cable or adapter, and an HDMI video cable. There are separate releases for North America, Europe, Asia and Japan, as the Mini reproduces the original console's decal and color variations in those regions. The North American and European Minis include three-button controllers, while the Japanese controllers have six buttons. Officially licensed six-button controllers made specifically for the Mini are also sold separately in North America and Europe. Officially licensed, non-functioning (purely aesthetic), add-on shells of a miniature Sega CD, a miniature Sega 32X, a miniature Sonic & Knuckles lock-on Genesis cartridge and a miniature Sonic the Hedgehog standard Mega Drive cartridge are also sold as a separate purchase in Japan.
