Thanks to its strong arcade roots that can be traced all the way back to the 1940s, the company that came to be known in 1965 as Sega was always defined by great games. Otherwise, there’s no better place to start than the Introduction. If you’d like to skip to the part where I provide direct feed video of some of the games in action, check out the Games and Cartridge and Flashcart Compatibility sections of this review. Of course, as usual, thanks to what is effectively this system’s Genesis-on-a-chip, it can play most Sega Genesis cartridges via its cartridge port (more on that later in Cartridge and Flashcart Compatibility).

The main change between this year’s version and last year’s is the software mix, and specifically with Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat II, and Mortal Kombat 3 in the 80 included games (I provided the full list here).

AtGames has released the 2015 version of their Sega Genesis Classic Game Console, which is available in standard (reviewed here) and deluxe (the addition of a cartridge containing five generic sports games) versions, with the former usually selling for a street price of around $40.
