Last September, Sega decided to delay<\/a> the release of the Mega Drive Mini \/ Genesis Mini after the response to the announcement here in the west was bigger than it expected. The company also explained how it also wanted to achieve a level of quality fans would expect and brought in proven Japanese developers to help out.<\/p>\n

Sega has now announced the system will launch worldwide on 19th September. It will be priced at 6,980 yen or 8,980 yen if you want two of the USB-based controllers. The device will include all the necessary cables and a total of 40 titles, with the first 10 for Japan now confirmed (thanks Gematsu).<\/p>\n

In North America, the Genesis will be sold for $79.99 and in Europe the Mega Drive equivalent will cost \u20ac69.99 or \u20ac79.99 if you want two controllers. Both of the systems in these regions come packaged with the original 3-button controllers (see below). The library of games for the system in these locations is expected to be slightly different as well. Here are the first 10:<\/p>\n

In addition to the information about the game line-ups, it’s been revealed<\/a> the talented team at M2 worked on the system’s software, while Sega composer Yuzo Koshiro was responsible for the menu music. The miniature console also has HDMI output, four quick-save slot options for each game (allowing for immediate saves) and various language options (with games like Castlevania: Bloodlines changing its title based on the region language).<\/p>\n
