Classic NES now Sega Genesis returning?

Just read Sega Genesis is being re- released. Don't have much details.

They have these on Amazon. I've seen them at Toysrus and even Rite-Aid pharmacy. There's an Atari one too.

I'm all for nostalgia but if you are going to re-release a console have wireless controllers. I would pay more if they did. From the looks of the pic the Genesis one is so good for Sega.

I would buy the handheld instead. Same price.

From the reviews, the genesis one currently available is trash.

from a site: 'this is actually just a rebranded release of the same emulator At Games has been releasing for years, not a response to the NES Classic. Sega is not directly involved in this emulation box.'

If it's not official it'll be garbage. No interest in it

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Man, NES, Sega, and SNES were great. Actually provided a challenge. Only used the game genie for Contra and Ninja Gaiden. Beating Tyson was epic as a kid.

Apparently there are third party wireless controllers which work on the classic NES. I'll be looking.

Still have my original Genesis/SegaCD and SNES. Too bad these are crap and have limited libraries or else I would have considered finally parting with them.
