The box does say it has a cartridge slot, which makes it much more compelling IMO. If it also supported original controllers, I'd really be interested, so I could use my Arcade Power Stick.

Man I wanted MUSHA like Japan is getting, but Super Fantasy Zone is cool.

Thunder Force III, nice! The list is great so far, love the two Mickey Mouse games too, along with the usual Sega inclusions.

Although I already have the Sega Ages version, I'm surprised they chose Thunder Force III and not Thunder Force IV/Lightening Force

Wow, surprised they got the Mickey games on this. This is starting to look more appealing. Earthworm Jim is a good addition too.
I wonder if the recently released Retro-Bit controllers which are 6 button would work with this. They have a USB and standard Genesis port controller and they’re officially licensed by Sega.

This definitely pushes me toward getting this. My wife loves playing World of Illusion with our kids, but she doesn’t like playing it on my hacked Wii.

10 more announced today. Unfortunately I think half of those or more have already been offered on one collection or the other but Mega Man The Wily Wars was a nice surprise.

I can’t remember, does this thing have a cartridge slot?

Pretty sure it’s just for looks and not a working cartridge slot.

I'm still holding out hope for some cool surprise announcement. Something like TMNT, XMen, Maximum Carnage, Aladdin, Punisher, etc. Anything like that would be enough to push me over the edge to buy.

Announcement 2 wowed me, but other than Wiley Wars nothing in this lineup really impressed me. I hope there's a big gun in the final announcement.

The last games were announced today. Some cool surprises in there with Road Rash 2 and Eternal Champions. Looks like 42 games total instead of the original announcement of 40.

Road Rash 2 instantly makes me happy I pre-ordered.

Like with the third list I can’t help but feel a little disappointed. They should have saved those big titles from list two if they didn’t have big reveals for later. Overall it’s still a decent lineup of games and I do have mine pre-ordered though.

They're only including the three button controller, right? Isn't that going to be a problem with something like Eternal Champions?

One thing I find odd about this (as well as other Genesis collections), why is Sonic The Hedgehog 3 always left out? The first two always seem to be included. I’ve heard about rights issues due to the soundtrack as Michael Jackson worked on it at one point, but they didn’t end up using his material in the game. It’s the one Sonic game I’m actually not that familiar with either and would like to play it (I don’t own it at all at this point). Ideally all the Sonic games (also Sonic & Knuckles and Sonic 3D Blast) should be here if you ask me.
