It'll be 80 bucks which isn't terrible, but I doubt it'll do well.  Why?  Well yet again a company cheaped out the US is only getting the 3 button controllers.  Yeah try playing Sf2 with 3 buttons.  Couple that with the fact that there are 8 genesis products licensed out at any given time to confuse consumers and this poor thing might do ok at best.  It's sad because the quality seems decent on this one and it has a good game list.

The oversaturation of Sega products is what will kill it.  I got the genesis collection on switch a few months ago for 14.99 on sale and it has 50 games and a lot of overlap.

They could have distinguished this w the 6 button controller and more unreleased and hard to find games.

It must seriously cost like 50 cents to license this stuff for a commercial product.

Howard_Casto:
I'm amazed that they got the two Disney games.  You'd think the mouse would bend them over a barrel for the rights.  The absence of Mortal Kombat is odd though.  Sega really ever outsold Nintendo for a short period and it was largely due to the censorship of Mortal Kombat.  Mind you the genesis port sucked harder imho due to limitations in graphics and sound, but I've got to think that any former genesis owner buying this is going to want to play MK for nostalgias sake.  I've noticed that Nintendo didn't have MK in any of it's collections either.... maybe WB charges a lot for the rights or something. 

pbj:
MK1 looked and sounded like crap on the Genesis but it actually felt like the arcade game.  SNES game starred midgets and felt nothing like the real thing.

MK2, no doubt the SNES version was better.

MK3 was pretty close but that one sucks anyway.
