The mini-console was originally announced for Japan only last month as “Sega Mega Drive Mini 2,” but today we learn that it will jump across the Pacific Ocean and land on the American shores day and date with the Japanese release, on October 27, 2022.
The console replicates the design of the second model of the Genesis and it features improvement over the original Sega Genesis Mini launched in 2019.
It boasts a line-up of over 50 games like the Japanese version, including titles originally launched on the Sega CD, featuring full-motion video and more.
The box will include one controller, one AC adapter plus USB power cable, and one high-speed HDMI cable.
The three sizes of the console are 120.8mm (W) x 32.3mm (H) x 116.5mm (D).
