The SEGA Genesis Mini 2 will be released in the west this October
If the SEGA Genesis Mini was so great, why isn't there a sequel? Well, now there is: SEGA will be releasing a second Genesis/Mega Drive Mini console, modeled after the original model 2 Genesis console, and it'll be released in North America as well. The miniature system will offer over 50 games, many of which were not on the first Genesis Mini, and will also include SEGA CD games. Two of the games are brand new backports to the Genesis as well--Fantasy Zone and Star Mobile, which were previously PC Engine and Master System releases. Right now, only North America and Japan are confirmed to get the Genesis Mini 2, where it'll be released in the west on October 27th. Some of the confirmed games can be seen below:
