Yep. And if the 6 button will be available in August, then there's no reason at ALL to complain. Its an incredible lineup of games, on a replica system designed by Sega, with their backing of it. What more can you ask for..
Sega confirmed that the currently released 6-button controller will work with the Genesis/Mega Drive Mini. I fire up my original Genesis periodically and I don’t think the controller is clunky. The controller is just fine and HAS aged well.
Although I appreciate and respect Mat Smith bringing us a Hands-On impression, I have to say, clearly there is no enthusiasm and soul in this content. The composition of this overview is more of an indiscreet criticism than encouraging gamers to acknowledge the passionate endeavor M2 and Sega put into a masterpiece product such as the Genesis/MegaDrive Mini.

The Sega Genesis came out in the US in 1989 with the 3-button controller packin. The Genesis six-button controller did not came out until 1993 Sega may wanted to make the Genesis faithful to the US launch or they just wanted us to buy the 6 button controller separately.
What the so called ‘reviewer’ failed to mention is that all 42 games have been custom coded by the amazing people at M2. Each game is emulated fantastically and M2 have gone to the hassle of adding an optional non-stretched filled mode by reworking the UI. Now that’s care and attention for you!
He thinks he needs to compare Xbox One Elite Controller with a 3 button gamepad from 90's(but I agree the decision to bundle the 3 button controller is bad, 6 buttons controller is way better, here in Brazil TECTOY also had the brilliant idea of putting the 3 button controller) .
The cartridge slot isn't pointless, there are mini (fake) cartridges you can insert to make it feel/look more like the real thing. Oh and there is also a fake 32x you can insert as well.
I wonder if they''ll change the menu design of the UK/EU version to better match the style of the logo and stuff, as does the Genesis model's menu design match that versions logo and stuff. I kinda hope they do because I think the UK/EU's logo is far slicker and if the UK/EU menu matches that aesthetic then it too might be even slicker.
Damn, M2 didn't fix that weird bug in Sonic 2 where the bottom line of pixels does not align with the main image. I can't be sure, but this must be an emulation issue that was not present in the original cartridge release.... ?
I'm guessing the clear boxes are not because the design isn't final, but so people don't try and steal the small devices. Edit: Also, you didn't talk about how the games ran aside from one throwaway line.
Yes, the Megadrive dominated in the U.K. FACT! I'm sick of hearing hipsters banging on about the SNES and trying to rewrite history. The fact is that 2 of the 3 global territories that mattered in gaming ( The U.S.A and Europe/ including the U.K.) the Megadrive won in hearts, minds and sales with only Japan letting the Sega side down. The SNES is a good games machine but it was and is 2nd best. That's why hipsters love it because the SNES was the underdog because the Megadrive was waaayyy more successful. Just stating hard, well know facts regardless of what Nintendo's sales figures say or there fan boys.

One Two They wont make any $$$$. Because there is no hype. I preordered mine when the console was first announced. As of Today, it is still available for preorder on every site. Whereas, SNES and NES classics sold out within minutes of announcement and within seconds after each subsequent preorder.
@@dianevrules I kinda agree. I mean Sega seems to always be 2nd place to Nintendo, so they threw In the towel and now we have sonic and Mario coming together at the Olympic games. 😂 Sega needs to get off their rear and put some effort into their products and believe again and not ruin what they have left of a reputation to 3rd parties like AtGames. I just recently picked up a genesis and never dawned on me until now how many of my favorite arcade games were actually on the genesis.
Yes, you should pre-order the machine post haste. You will not get a more authentic Sega Genesis feel in 2019 than this beautiful machine (unless you own a real one...I have my original Genesis from 1989). Further you need to consider the pedigree behind this classic console as it was made by M2. These are the same people behind the amazing Castlevania Collection, Sega Ages Switch releases, and Contra Collection just released during E3. The only problematic thing that I see coming from this release is being forced to play these games on a 3-button controller. Now, I am going to pick up two 6-button controllers one week before the Genesis Mini hits and that does not bother me too much. My fiance and I are building a home arcade currently. We have 5 stand up arcade cabs right now and more on the way as well as a room dedicated to old school gaming. Finally, we also have two of every console including the enhanced consoles connected to two 4K UHD screens in our master bedroom; However, if we were not into gaming and I was a casual player, I would be throughly pissed that the cost of the Genesis Mini isn't $80.00 it's probably in the ballpark of $140.00 if you factor in two 6-button controllers at $30.00 each....which I guarntee is what they will cost 8f you can find them. I say that as the mini Neo Geo AES controllers are not obtainable. Sure they advertised them but I have never seen one before ever and why I will not by another SNK mini anything again.
Saturn is Niche and as much as hardcore gamers love the titles, there aren’t any mainstream classics. The Arcade conversion games are massively dumbed down and aged poorly (no one is screaming for the Saturn version of Daytona). No proper Sonic game. Bug, Clockwork Knight, Panzer Dragoon are cool games, but no one realistically will rush to stores for them. The fighting games were great, but that’s what the Capcom and SNK plug and plays are for. I would say the same for the Dreamcast. All the good games have been ported countlessly.
@@sloppynyuszi Don't forget that even if it had done well in the US, it's still next to impossible to emulate properly, so it's probably not happening for that reason too
@EightBit Man if "everyone" wanted it the console wouldnt have failed... i remember being the only one having it in my area back in the day and now everyone wants one? LMAO... makes absolutely no sense.... looking back it really only had a handfull of gems like Dragon Force, Zwei, Burning Rangers and maybe sega rally.....
The last system was from AtGames, who SEGA cut ties with. M2 is handling the emulation for the Genesis Mini, who are known for their expertise in that field.
And here I am, waiting on a Sega CD mini. Probably be waiting a good bit. Seriously though, a Sega CD 32x would be a day one purchase. You gotta stand out, Sega.
Wii need to get another spokesperson this chap is not really a hard core or die-hard SEGA fan! You need someone who’s really enthusiastic and excited like I am or some SEGA kid! This guy is tired and find it boring!?!? 😳
Bad bad journalism, may also be a nintendo fanboy. Why you would criticize an awesome move by these classic companies giving you an opportunity to revisit the past and buying a legit new hardware and in a legal way to play their old games. It's only Ok if Nintendo does? Journalism today is just bad.
I have a hard time understanding the value of any of this mini systems. It's so easy to just build one that has more games and is better with the crazy amount of SBC's and cases available. I guess it's cool for someone that doesn't know tech and just wants to buy something the can plug in, but still your limited to what they want you to play. This little Genesis one does look pretty cool though. A Sega CD and Dreamcast would be sweet to see.
You're bitching about the catalogue of games?!? Did you REALLY play the Genesis back in the days?!? This is by FAR the most solid collection of games compared to the other classic systems. 2/10 for this video.
Why the heck would you want anything different to the O,G controller for a mini console, it would be like if we got the dog one as the only NES controller
Grew up with the MEGADRIVE/Genesis. Still have my Japanese MEGADRIVE am looking forward to this miniature version to relive nostalgia with games like Sonic 2, Streets of Rage 2, Alisia Dragoon, Shinobi, Street Fighter 2 and Mickey Mouse.
I remember seeing my nephew playing on a shitty AtGames Genesis, where the audio sounds like it had a stroke. I guess it's a good thing that companies are releasing decent quality retro consoles so kiddies don't get the wrong impression about them
I won't get because I already possess two Genesis consoles, the Genesis 2 I got when I was like 10 years old, and Genesis HDG I picked up on ebay a decade ago before retro became a thing again that drove prices to the roof. I bought a SNES mini mainly because it was to fill a void I had since 1991 when we ended up with a NES and not a SNES because it was sold out. After I beat Super Mario World on it, and side loaded other SNES games, mainly Mortal Kombat to compare it to Genesis, I hardly play the SNES mini. I'm back to playing PC games. The nostalgia ran it's course. IMO SEGA should have been more tight on their IP. Not letting AtGames produce anything and certainly not selling their classics on Nintendo or any fmr competitor console. I feel like now they realize their error of their past mistakes which is that they should have been producing their own products. Some of us old fans have been screaming this for decades after they stupidly decided to leave the console market.
Im shocked that there are no sports games on the mini. They shouldve put at least 4 sports games on here. Football, soccer, baseball, basketball, tennis, boxing game, etc. Pick 4. SMMFH

Love them all amazing gadgets
