All WORKING DESIGN GAMES! Not just Popful mail but also Lunar Silver Star Story and Lunar The Eternal Blue. As well as any other expensive/rare games that you can think of. Almost forgot to add 1 more game, Crusader of Centy. Perhaps the most expensive Sega Genesis game by far. Costing over $1000 CIB. If you could believe it.

Sega CD games are too large for the storage they use on these minis. It would probably be only able to fit one Sega CD game. I know because I like to add more games to these classic minis. I added some Master System, 32x and more Genesis games to my Genesis mini.

Lunar is also on the ps1, not saying it wouldn’t be cool on the mini though. Also I totally agree that those CD games should be on here

[@newspooiechannel]

It would be a travesty if neither Ranger X or Rocket Knight Adventures made it into a Genesis collection. And if they can add Alien Soldier back for the US, they can do the same for MUSHA. I am also surprised that Ristar was nowhere to be found on the original.

[@darkhierophant4914]

Those are common and relatively cheap. They need to add 200+ dollar games.

[@BAKU2K2]

@@darkhierophant4914 A Japanese copy of Ristar goes for on average over $500, though.

[@newspooiechannel]

While I will say that Rister is readily available in other SEGA compilations, and MUSHA can now be played on the Switch as of late, where on a system released in the last 30 years are Ranger X and Rocket Knight Adventures commonly found? As much as we like to think we are the center of everything, the target audience for the Genesis Mini systems are not people who still collect for their Genesis systems 3 decades later and play the system every other week. It is for people who at one point played games in the past and want to relive the system again either for nostalgia, or with their kids, or maybe their system has been packed away for 20 years and they want something in HD out of the box. MUSHA, I should add, IS a $200+ game for the Genesis when you can even find it. And closer to $1000 when it is complete.

[@auralunaprettycure]

Ranger X is a masterpiece, such a technical achievement and such a unique concept! I’ve never seen ang other Genesis game that combined tank gameplay with on foot gameplay in such a creative way as that one (besides Blaster Master, but that’s an NES one)

[@segaunited3855]

Its Export only until February 2nd.

Considering that Snatcher is already localized for the Sega CD, not adding it would be a big mistake.

[@jazzygeofferz]

That Megadrive version of Virtua Racing is an incredible acgievement. I think it runs at 15 FPS, but it looks so smoth and fast. The high up chase camera is good for learning the basic layout of the track, but the cockpit view is really good for getting right on the racing line and putting in some great times once you do know your way round. It's ashame they're not putting the 32X version on, because that was the best home port.

Sonic 3D Blast and Vectorman 2 weren't about 'experimenting with graphics because of the Nintendo 64 announcement'. They were the result of the success Nintendo had had with Donkey Kong Country and the trend of using pre-rendered CG graphics as assets for these 2D games, which led to games like the original Vectorman, the DK sequels, Sonic 3D Blast, Super Mario RPG, and others following said trend. Vectorman 2, DKC3, Sonic 3D Blast, and Super Mario RPG all came out in 1996. Vectorman was supposed to be Sega's answer to Donkey Kong Country, and Sonic 3D Blast and Super Mario RPG were both the "isometric" products both companies had.

I'll still buy it simply for the fact that they decided to go with the Genesis Model 2. And because I grew up with Model 2, to me, THAT model is the Genesis, not the original one which I have zero memory nor nostalgia for. I'm aware of the differences of sound quality on the actual original Models 1 and 2, of course. But when it comes to _visual_ nostalgia, for me it's all about Model 2. That's also why I skipped the first Mini, because it was Model 1 and just didn't feel anything for it. (On a side note, my own Model 2 is modified with a Triple Bypass mod and has the Model 1 sound quality, it's the best of both worlds and the best version of the Genesis to own for my tastes)

In Super Hang-On, hold down the turbo button along with the acceleration button once you get to 280 kph. Your speed is gonna climb up to 320, and it feels like it. Well, to me at least.

I never grew up with a Sega but loved the mini 1. Hope they have some big 3rd party licensed games on this. I feel like they need a few games that specifically use the 6 button controller. Hopefully some more action/adventure and fighting games are included.

Basically, the entire Working Designs catalogue would be great. Other great choices: Snatcher, Rocket Knight/Sparkster, Quackshot, and Mickey Mania, though licensing may get in the way.

Crusader of Centy, I'll buy it for that alone, but a few more I always loved. Big Rainbow Island fan, can't wait to play the extra version.

I wish they did dungeon master 2. I think that was on CD

[@JohnRiggs]

I think you're right.

My picks for Genesis games that need to be on here are Contra Hard Corps, Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, Comix Zone and Truxton would be really cool! CD games id love to see is Heart of the Alien, Night trap, one of the Lets Make a music Video games and Sewer Shark is a must.
