America’s Next 10 Genesis Mini Games

Well, that was fast: trailing Japan’s announcement by only a couple hours, the next gen Sega Genesis Mini games have been announced for North America and Europe. And… rejoice! We’re not stuck with only Sonic 1, we’re also getting Sonic 2. Whew.

• Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse
• World of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse & Donald Duck
• Thunder Force III
• Super Fantasy Zone
• Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master
• Streets of Rage 2
• Earthworm Jim
• Sonic the Hedgehog 2
• Contra: Hard Corps
• Landstalker

Earthworm Jim is a surprising acquisition, but really, all that matters to me is seeing Sonic 2 on this list. All in all, this is actually turning out to be a pretty solid collection of Sega Genesis games.

The first 10 games can be seen here. Pre-orders have begun over here. Currently, there is no word on when the next set of games will be revealed.

Stay tuned!
