Segata come back. Magoose isn't even here anymore. :'(

On topic: Some folks think it might be a Virtua Fighter announcement.

Only thing I can parse on that page is a 5.

Master System
Megadrive
Saturn
Dreamcast
???

Sega back in the console race confirmed.

If it's a Sega Saturn collection or a Sega Saturn Mini, I'll throw money at them so fast despite being in the middle of a global pandemic.

But the Saturn gets so little love, even from Sega, that I really doubt that's it.

Game Gear had a seriously underappreciated library (check out the fan translation of Sylvan Tale sometime!)... unfortunately there's no way my carpal tunnel + declining olddddd man eyesight would be able to play on that. I'm waiting for the Analog Portable, especially the GG output. I've looked into having an acquaintance of mine (who does retro hardware repair/mods) modding my OG Game Gear into having TV output but that's quite expensive.

I'll wait for the matching screen magnifier attachment  :smug

It'd be pretty fun to see a pseudo-TV attachment mod at that scale

there's four of them with four different games so if you have 200 dollars to spend you can get sixteen games.

...yeah

Or you can get the set with all four, plus the BIG WINDOW MICRO for ONLY $300.

Sega was a fucking mess back then. Saturn never had a chance and as good as the Dreamcast is it was never going to right the ship.

It's well documented at this point just how much of a failure Sega's top brass was then. Shit is bewildering to look back on.

A lot of this was due to Sega USA and Japan being very separate entities at the time and doing their own things.  That was some really stupid shit.

Nomad was fucking awesome, though- Pretty much the Switch of its generation, right down to the TV hookups.  I played the shit out of it....with an AC adapter.  LOL batteries on that thing.
