Why is it that I can’t stop rubbing my hands in gleeful anticipation? I’ll tell you why. Sega’s Mega Drive (also called Sega Genesis) is about to make a reentry in to the gaming scene; in a slim and chic design, if I may add. Vying for a release in April, the Blaze SEGA Mega Drive is set to revive interest in the 16-bit console games of yesteryears, at least temporarily so. This release of the Mega Drive will aim at the two-player home console (stuck-in-the-retro) niche with fifteen games built in to the machine. Anyone retaining the original Mega Drive cartridges would be able to use them on this console. The cartridge support is independent of region, so you may pop in any title from anywhere on this earth. Younger lot at the house can be kept away from serious gaming with two six button controllers included in the package. The built-in games include: Alex Kid, Bonanza Bros., Crack Down, Decap Attack, Fatal Labyrinth, Flicky, Gain Ground, and Sonic And Knuckles, among others. The Blaze SEGA Mega Drive is to be launched on April 24 at a price of £39.99 ($53 approx.). You can order it in advance here.
