    I never owned a sega system when I was younger, well I wanted them all but my parents were not well off so neither was I. So for 60$ you can have a lot of great games packed into this system! I know there are many other titles out the but finding them is expensive and a gamble. This was an essential must have to regain my childhood (my wife disagrees) and it did not break the bank. Enjoy!

    SEGA has done an amazing job partnering with M2 to create a proper 30th anniversary collection for their hit SEGA Genesis console. Just as much loving care has been put into it as Nintendo did with their mini consoles! Only downside is if you were a big Genesis sports gamer this is missing a lot of those iconic titles. Still, there's a lot of fantastic gems on here so it's well worth the price!

    After countless at games sega products finally there’s something good with sega. I grew up with the genesis so it’s nice to see something of quality for once with them. Only bad thing is I would’ve chosen better games. Mortal kombat? Fatal fury? Sonic and knuckles?

    In light of Sony's disastrous PlayStation Classic, this thing hit the ball out of the park. Good selection of games, decent feature set, and fun little aspects, such as the cover art changing depending on the region that you set. This mini console has a soul and I love it. They even put a cartridge flap and volume rocker to be true to the original, even though they serve no purpose.

    I’m impressed with how many games for the price this comes with. I bought it on sale for $50 and that just made it an incredible value. Well worth the money.

    Although I was an snes kid growing up I still had the chance to play many a great game on the genesis. Sonic 2, streets of rage 2, earthworm jim and some rare and expensive games like castlevania and contra added along with mega man the wily wars which never got a physical addition in North America make the genesis mini in my the best retro mini console yet.

    I’d put this right up there with SNES and NES Mini In terms of quality. My only complaint is you almost have to buy the additional Retro-Bit 6 button controller because the ones it comes with aren’t compatible with some of the games that require more buttons. And not including Sonic 3 and Knuckles (the best SEGA game ever) is disappointing. But other than that, it’s great. 9.5

    This is the best mini console the Genesis has ever seen. I can say this because I literally own all of the mini classic edition consoles on the market. Yeah I’m obsessed, but that’s not the point. The point is this is freaking worth every penny and if you’re a Sega fan you’ll love it. They really did it right this time with every little detail that a retro fan would love.

    From back in the day when the game play was as much if not more important than the graphics. These little games are fun and addicting. Had a SEGA Genesis back in the '80s. Still have it, but it's too big to leave set up. This is great to have so many of the top games from back then in a small package and the price was what one game cost in the '80s.

    Love it! Me and my little nephew play Sonic all the time now. Easy to hook up and navigate the menu. The user interface isn’t as clear and easy to use as the SNES mini but still serves its purpose. Love that Castlvania Rondo of Blood and Comic Zone is on here. So many great games. It was also on sale for $49.99 When I picked it up, so I got a great deal!

    Needed to find something to occupy time while stay-at-ordinances were in place due to COVID-19... with 40+ games I decided to look into the SEGA Genesis Mini Console. The console was on sale so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to purchase when I did. It's been fun and nostalgic playing games I grew up with, and some games I hadn't played before.

    The console is well put together. Being able to change the region of the game selection is bonus. You can change the video settings to fit modern TVs as well if you'd want. With as many games that are on there, it's worth the buy. Sony should have released the playstation mini like this, with more options and larger selection of games. This is worth buying.

    It has been over 20 years since I have owned one of my favorite consoles of all time, and this delivers pure nostalgia. Very well made, lots of games with some of my favorites I remember, and it still looks fantastic! Picked it up when it was $30 off and it is worth every penny. Sega does what Nintendid! And it sits along side the NES/SNES minis nicely.

    This is perfect for anyone who wants an easy way to play their favorite Sega Genesis games from the 90s. There are tons of great games here and this is a much better product than the previous Genesis clone consoles. If you want a quick and easy plug and play experience with great emulation of your favorite games, then definitely get this!
