With The Announcement of the SEGA Genesis/Megadrive Mini, Nintendo clashes with SEGA again for Console superiority this time for Retro Consoles.

Nintendo has already released two classic edition consoles the NES and SNES Classic Edition, With speculation for the N64 Classic edtion coming soon

Will SEGA skip the CD and release the much wanted DREAMCAST mini for the up coming holiday season?

Not quite a "war," considering that each mini console is just a one-off product and not a platform like full consoles are. Still, smart of SEGA to cash in on their nostalgia after seeing Nintendo have success with the Nintendo and Super Nintendo minis. I'm all for more mini throwback systems. Just, please make enough for everyone who wants one! Thx.

The company sega chose (AtGames) already made a mini genesis and it was very poorly executed.

So I am tentatively predicting that sega will lose.

I didn't buy into any of the other minis - but if ninty actually releases an n64 mini I am preordering it immediately (and not to flip).

People act as if the Sega Genesis minis are some big new thing planning to compete with Nintendo, and that there'll be Saturn/Dreamcast versions.
Nah, it's the same AtGames licensed crap we've been getting for years.
