  So what do you think? It has some decent third party games in there as well such as Earthworm Jim. Sadly I already have the HD version so it doesn't really entice me but a good get imo. This is looking like a proper effort into the mini console realm for Sega.

  So far the line up of games is looking good. I'm surprised to see Castlevania Bloodlines among the list of games. I haven't played it before, but I thought a game like Castlevania Bloodlines would be one of those overlooked good games, that wouldn't get added. There has been some effort put into the console and it looks promising. I hope more games will be added like Aladdin, Streets of Rage 1 and 3 along with some underrated gems like Out of This World/Another World and Flashback.

  I Hope with SoR2 listed, it means that we will also get SoR1 and SoR3. Same goes for Sonic, though I think it is unlikely we will see Sonic 3 due to whatever dispute is going on between SEGA and the Michael Jackson estate over the in-game music, but I bet we also see S&K make the list at some point.
  
  I am surprised that Golden Axe is not yet on the list. I would think that game would be a shoe-in.
  
  Hopefully the emulation and menu system on this new Genesis console is not as bad as the AtGames/FireCore versions.

  As much as I’d like that, I don’t think they’re adding all the games from the series. I was surprised to see Sonic 2. I think that’s it just like the Genesis collection on PSP which only had 1&2.

  I wonder what the upcoming games will be? Although I don't think any fighting games like Street Fighter II or Mortal Kombat are coming to the console. Since you needed a six button controller for those games. Also another game I hope will be on the console is Strider.

  I'm looking forward to the next 20 games. It seems they are really doing a good job here. I'm slowly slowly leaning towards getting this. I usually find mini consoles to be stupid, but getting an actual Genesis again would be too much hassle at this point in time for me.

  Well we got another additional 10 as seen on the site with a few really big surprises. There are only ten left! I'm thinking they're going to save the big hitters for the last ten or at least bigger than the rest of them so far. What titles do you expect to be announced?
  
  I think if they were going to have Sonic 3 & Knuckles, waiting until announcing the last batch would be the place to do it but even with some really rare surprises in the last ten I don't have much hope in that title making it. Instant buy if it was though. I think one of them will be Vectorman 2. Not sure what else they will do but I think a good number of them will be 3rd party. Perhaps Desert Strike?

  Unfortunately, I reckon that's about as likely as a new Storybook game or Sonic 4 Episode 3 but count me hopeful. My big hopes are Phantasy Star 2 or 3 and Ristar. If we don't get the latter I'm afraid Sega will've forgotten about that gem by now
