Two New Sega Consoles and a Handheld Packed With Retro Games Coming Soon
AtGames is hitting the retro console remake frenzy hard this summer. Nintendo may have enjoyed [...]
Sega Genesis Flashback
"The all-new Sega Genesis Flashback has a stunning new design, reminiscent of the original Sega Genesis console, and features 85 built-in games as well as an integrated cartridge port that plays almost all of your favorite Sega Genesis and Mega Drive original cartridges.
"Built-in all-time favorites include the Sonic series, Mortal Kombat series, Phantasy Star series, and Shining Force series games. Two new high performance 2.4ghz wireless controllers, styled after the Sega Genesis originals, are included, as well as two legacy controller ports for optional wired gamepads. Other new features for the Sega Genesis Flashback include 720p HDMI output, scanline filtering, and a save/pause/rewind feature for every game."
Did you catch that? You're going to have a ton of pre-loaded games in this console, and you'll be able to play your classic cartridges as well -- you can even use your original controllers!
Now let's take a look at the value version before moving on to the handheld.
prevnextClassic Game Console
"The Classic Game Console returns in a new value-priced edition, complete with 81 all-time favorites. Amazing new additions to the game line-up include role-playing and strategy legends, Shining Force, and Shining Force II. Two wired controllers, styled after the Sega Genesis originals, are included, as well as two legacy controller ports to add your own optional original controllers."
This will be the stocking stuffer, eventually. This model has been around before, but now it's been revised with new games, legacy Genesis controller ports, and of course, the ability to play your original Sega Genesis cartridges.
Now let's take a look at this new handheld.
prevnextUltimate Portable Game Player
"The Ultimate Portable Game Player returns with an enhanced selection of 85 built-in Sega Genesis and Mega Drive classic games. The selection of blockbuster games includes new additions PAC-PANIC and Splatterhouse 2, as well as many more surprises. You can even add your own games with an optional SD card!
"Returning for 2017 is save game support for the included Phantasy Star series and Sword of Vermillion role-playing games. A built-in, rechargeable battery, means the on-the-go fun never has to end. Games can be played on the portable's built-in, high-resolution 2.8" display, or on a TV via optional cable."
Well it's no Nintendo Switch, but you can play it on the go in as a handheld or plug it up to the TV for some big-screen retro goodness. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to us!
