I stretched games and I'm more normal than most people. 2D animation stretches well so most games look fine and I would rather have that than black borders on the sides. What's the point of a big TV if you only use barely half the space? Moral of the story, either way is fine. If you prefer perfect aspect ratio then I won't hate but pretending that's the only sensible option is the sign of a complete fucking idiot.

Though the Retropie "pop" was more muted than the Mini but was still there. Tests were conducted using the same speakers used to play the video, Mister & Retropie.

Yes sir, this IS exactly how a mini console should be built & priced! SEGA not only thinking of profits but reasonable & equally entertaining quality product both the ol' faithful ones AND the new generation fans! THANKS SEGA. The GENESIS Lives!

August 13th 2020 here, I bought one for the equivalent of 35 USD aprox. I think that was a fair price. One thing that I should add to this review is that if you change your console to German or Italian you will get the European Version of the games, for example: Castlevania: The New Generation and instead Contra Hard Corp it is Probotector... small details but I think it is nice...

Awesome video and so in-depth in such a short amount of time: respect! Audio sounds pretty snotty TBH.. the kickdrum sounds totally distorted in the sample. Also, so shitty to play eternal champions and SF2 with 3 button pad. I will definitely check out the Asian version.

The sega mini looks awesome! I think that the flaws are noticeable but minor, the only thing that worries me are the controls, I loved Virtua Fighter 2 since my childhood and the other games are solid so I'll buy it

If you are considering one of these just get it, it was very well done. Best "mini" yet, as well as SEGA did on this one can only hope one day we will get a Dreamcast!! I also think an original gameboy reboot with included games would be awesome by Nintendo.

Suggestions for future episodes, games like Alien Rampage, an amazing DOS platformer, Realms of Chaos, another interesting one for DOS as well, Magical Cat Adventure for Arcade, another platformer, Sonic Before the Sequel and Sonic After the Sequel, interesting fan made Sonic games, worth looking at.
