Told Ya! MegaDrive/Genesis Back Cat for Revolution Confirmed

nice one ninty.im soooo pissed.wooooo,we love u spong.

KniGhts?

Or even Clockwork NiGHTS? (guffaw).

NiGHTS is a Saturn game, although it would have been nice...

Well, now Sega are a software company primarily, I can't see what they've got to lose for making their entire back catalogue available online. It doesn't just have to be for the Revolution either.

So is Clockwork Knight, my poor attempt at a joke, I apologise. :)

I wouldn't rule out the Saturn stuff coming later probably... at least, as a SEGA head (and currently wanting less of my consoles to actually plug in) I certainly hope so. With the Virtual Console it already allows me to finally unplug my N64, SNES, Gamecube, Mega Drive... hopefully my Mega CD and 32X too (because the last thing we want is YET ANOTHER Sonic collection with Knuckles Chaotix as its headlining title).

Streets of Rage Get.

Damn Sega! Shame on you. My favorite game company has succumbed to their old rival. From now on, I will refer to Sega/Sammy as a once great company.

if sega use straight business theiry then they will make a full back catalogue available.

i think its the concept of "special order" ie they have obviously already covered there past fixed costs,so disregarding the online infrastruture ,100% profit for sega.

however this does not take into consideration legal and tecnical issues,ones that which may hold up,hinder or harm the chances of a full backcatalogue.

hmmm, always did want to finish Corpse Killers...seemed, scratch that, WAS impossible without a light gun, and the one from Lethal Enforcers didn't work...hate not being able to finish a game...makes me tetchy for years...

Now all we need is for nintendo to conferm a SNK back catalog and the deals done. Please Nintedo you know it would make all the old-school 16bit players happy =D. Viewpoint and toejam and earl on the same console. Woot!!!!!!!

Damn good news that will hopefully encourage more people to buy a Rev. I know I'll be there anyways.

I agree 32x and Saturn stuff could easily come much later on in Revs cycle. Only problem is the supposed 512mb that is supposed to be onoard the Rev. It would be better for Nintendo to giv us a hard drive seeing as there will be all these game formats on one machine.

I'm sure if they dont sort this out, some third party out there might produce a hard drive add on. One things for sure, I'm going to want to store a lot of rom games, much more than 512mb (and that's not even including Rev or GC games saves on it). Lets hope this changes to something larger.
