The Sega Genesis Mini 2 launches this October

Retro enthusiasts should keep an eye out for a specific blast processing-powered beast coming this fall — shout-outs to all three of you that understood that reference.

On Wednesday, Sega announced that the Genesis Mini 2 will launch on Oct. 27, 2022. The tiny throwback console features more than 50 games, some of which were Sega CD exclusives. We’ll list some of the offerings below.

Sega Genesis Mini 2 games 

Remember that this list only includes the 23 titles revealed thus far. Don’t worry – there’ll be more. 

  • Sonic CD 
  • Sonic 3D Blast
  • Bonanza Brothers
  • Fantasy Zone 
  • Alien Soldier
  • After Burner 2
  • OutRun
  • Ninja Warriors
  • OutRunners
  • Lightening Force
  • Night Striker 
  • Mansion of Hidden Souls 
  • Vectorman 2
  • Shining in the Darkness
  • Virtua Racing
  • Rainbow Islands Extra
  • Rolling Thunder 2
  • Shining Force CD 
  • Silpheed 
  • The Ooze
  • Splatterhouse 2
  • Star Mobile 
  • Super Hang On

Pretty solid list, some of these are among the best Genesis games ever. Hopefully, Sega will give Shinobi some love once the remaining titles get an announcement. It could use more sports games too.

The Sega Genesis Mini 2 is being sold exclusively through Amazon. It’ll go for $103.80, with an additional shipping fee of $21.99 since it’s coming from Japan.
