Sega Genesis Mini

The Sega Genesis Mini, known as the Mega Drive Mini in regions outside of North America, is a dedicated console modeled on the Sega Genesis. The Mini emulates the original console's 16-bit hardware, and includes 42 games made available through emulation software by M2. It was released in North America and Japan in September 2019 and in Europe and the Middle East in October 2019. A follow-up, Sega Genesis Mini 2, was released in October 2022 and includes 60 games from the Genesis and Sega CD.

Hardware and accessories Edit

The Mini is half the size of the original Sega Genesis. Inside the unit is an ARM-based SOC ZUIKI Z7213[4] and 512 MB of flash memory.[1] It includes either one or two (dependent on region's bundle options) full-size replica controllers that connect through USB (thus original controllers are incompatible),[5] a USB-to-Micro-B power cable (USB AC adapter in North America), and an HDMI video cable.[1] There are separate releases for North America, Europe, Asia and Japan, as the Mini reproduces the original console's decal and color variations in those regions.[1][6] Korea is a slight exception, as the Mega Drive was released there by Samsung as the Super Gam*Boy and Super Aladdin Boy; none of these names appear on the Korean Mini.[7]

All of the games have a save state feature to pause and resume progress and can be played in either the original 4:3 aspect ratio with optional wallpapers or stretched to 16:9 widescreen with HUD elements modified to fit onto the screen.[8] Certain games have regional variants that can be accessed by changing the system's language settings (e.g. switching the system language from English to Japanese will change Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine into Puyo Puyo.)[2][9]

The North American and European models of the Genesis Mini come bundled with two three-button controllers, while the Japanese model comes with two six-button controllers.[5] Officially licensed six-button controllers made specifically for the Mini are also sold separately in North America and Europe.[10] Official model accessories of a miniature Mega-CD, a miniature Super 32X, a miniature Sonic & Knuckles lock-on Genesis cartridge, and a miniature Sonic the Hedgehog standard Mega Drive cartridge were also sold separately in Japan.[11] Miniature replicas of the Sega CD and Sega 32X in both the North American and European versions were also manufactured but only distributed to select members of the media.[12]

The Mini 2 system is modeled after the Mega Drive 2 variant of the original console and comes bundled with over 50 games and a single six-button controller in all regions. It uses the same SOC chip as the first Mini, albeit with more memory and storage. In addition to the first Mini's emulation features, the Mini 2 includes the option to emulate the sound outputs of the original Genesis or Genesis 2. Like with the original Mega Drive Mini, a set of model accessories consisting of a miniature Mega-CD 2, a miniature Virtua Racing cartridge, and a miniature Sonic CD disc was released in Japan alongside the system, including compatibility parts with the first Mega Drive Mini and its accessories.[1] Additionally, a USB-powered Cyber Stick controller based on the original flight stick controller produced by Sharp was released alongside the system in Japan and provides analog input for After Burner II, Night Striker, and Starblade.[13][14]

Games Edit

Sega Genesis Mini Edit

The Sega Genesis Mini features 40 Sega Genesis games, with the selection varying depending on the region. In addition to these titles, the game includes two bonus games, Darius and Tetris, which are new conversions made for the Mini system that were previously never released for the original console.[15]

Production and release Edit

The Sega Genesis Mini was first announced at the Sega Fes show in April 2018.[1] The announcement was part of a trend of releasing smaller versions of retro video game consoles.[5] It was delayed in September, missing the console's 30th-anniversary window,[24] when Sega dropped its partnership with AtGames,[1] whose 2017 Sega Genesis Flashback was critically panned for its production quality.[2][5] Instead of using AtGames's Flashback software on a Japan-exclusive Mini, Sega handled the entire production of the system.[2] The system was released worldwide on September 19, 2019,[1] except in Europe and the Middle East, where it was delayed until October 4, 2019, due to distribution issues.[25]

M2, who previously collaborated with Sega on the Sega Ages and Sega 3D Classics Collection series, produced the Mini's ports.[1] Sega emphasized first-party production quality in its marketing for the Mini,[5] as the company returns to the hardware business after last producing the Sega Dreamcast in 2001.[26] The menu music was written by Yuzo Koshiro, who was also the composer of the compilation's Beyond Oasis, Streets of Rage 2, and The Revenge of Shinobi.[2]

Since its release, the first Sega Genesis Mini console had sold over 300,000 units by the end of March 2020.[27]

A followup, the Sega Genesis Mini 2, was announced on June 3, 2022 and was released worldwide on October 27, 2022.[28][29] Koshiro returned to write the menu music.[30]

Notes Edit

  1. ^ a b c d A newly developed Genesis port of the arcade version created specifically for the Mini.
  2. ^ If the system language is set to Japanese, Traditional Chinese, or Korean, the game is replaced with Puyo Puyo.[9]
  3. ^ A new port based on Sega's 1988 arcade version, not to be confused with the extremely rare 1989 Mega Drive version.
  4. ^ A title that was originally developed in 1992 but never released for the original console.
  5. ^ Subtitled Katayama Masayuki's Mahjong Dojo
  6. ^ a b Updated titles based on the original Party Quiz Mega Q. Mega Q 2022 features trivia up to the year 2022 whereas Sega Q features trivia based on Sega titles.
  7. ^ Players can choose between the North American and European versions of Sonic CD (Japanese and North American versions in the Japanese language setting), which each have different soundtracks, upon selecting the game in the menu.
  8. ^ An enhanced port of Space Harrier II featuring enhanced sprite scaling and smoother framerates. A new Genesis conversion of the original Space Harrier is also included, accessed by selecting Space Harrier II from the game selection menu.
  9. ^ A Mega Drive port of Star Mobile originally released for the Sharp X68000 computer in 1991, which finished development in 1992 but was never released.
  10. ^ Viewpoint is considered a bonus game in the Japanese version of the Mega Drive Mini 2 because the Genesis port was not released in Japan before its inclusion.
  11. ^ A Genesis port of the versus mode from Puyo Puyo Sun, originally released for the arcades and the Sega Saturn.
