Check out our review if you're not quite convinced - we really like it! Before the announcement of M2 and Yuzo Koshiro’s involvement, we’d have answered with an emphatic ‘no’. However, given the talent Sega enlisted and the quality of the unit, the company has taken note of Nintendo’s success with its two Mini Classic consoles and has delivered an experience worthy of the Mega Drive’s legacy. Just look at the attention to detail on those cartridge slot flaps in this trailer!
A word of warning though: make sure you're getting the brand new version. Warehouses and stockrooms all over the world are still clogged with the awful AtGames plug-and-play mini Mega Drives and we'd imagine unscrupulous retailers will try to offload inventory on unsuspecting customers and well-meaning relatives. Double check that the description and packaging matches what you see above before snapping up a 'bargain'.
