Yesterday, we briefly discussed that SEGA had an eminent announcement for us today. Did they disappoint?

By way of Twitter and also at a Japanese Expo, they announced the Sega Mega Drive Mini.

「メガドライブ」誕生30周年記念！
『メガドライブ ミニ』（仮称）2018年発売決定！

思い出の名作ゲームの数々が、これ1台で楽しめます！#セガフェス #メガドライブ #メガドライブ30周年https://t.co/HWj6NFL96y pic.twitter.com/0C9QH1l5Mr

If it can latch onto the success the NES Classic and SNES Classic has achieved, then Sega may just be printing money. No full release date, price or regions has been given, besides the generous 2018. Rats!

The system is said to be developed in-house by SEGA this time and not outsourced like previews systems contracted out.  Now go relive the classic era of the console wars.
