A new games console that will emulate the Wii as well as allowing you to play classic Sega games is being launched in the summer.

The console, called the Sega Zone, will come with 20 classic Sega titles, like Alex Kid, Golden Axe, Sonic and Knuckles and Ecco the dolphin as well as a further 30 games, 16 of which are motion controlled.

Users will be able to control the action via two included wireless remote controls and when not playing Sega titles be able to play the usual array of sports classics like table tennis, darts, fencing, beach volleyball, and golf by waving the controller in front of the screen as they do with the Nintendo console.

However, gamers hoping to be able to load in more games will be disappointed, although the makers say that they hope to offer more Sega titles in the future, you won't be able to add them to this system.

Priced at around £50, the Sega Zone is expected to be out in the summer.

better value than the wii or not? you decide bore!

So this is essentially one of those "FIFTY CLASSIC ARCADE GAMES IN ONE JOYSTICK CONTROLLER!" things you can buy at a mall, but with waggle?

I'm pretty sure they have this at CVS, sans the whole Sega thing.

Makes sense - after making so many Genesis compilations, it's only natural to make a new device for the sole purpose of putting more Genesis games in a gaming device.
