The Sega Genesis Mini, known as the Mega Drive Mini in regions outside of North America, is a dedicated console modeled on the Sega Genesis. The Mini emulates the original console's 16-bit hardware, and includes 42 games made available through emulation software by M2. It was released in North America and Japan in September 2019 and in Europe and the Middle East in October 2019. A follow-up, Sega Genesis Mini 2, was released in October 2022 and includes 60 games from the Genesis and Sega CD.

Hardware and accessories

The Mini is half the size of the original Sega Genesis. Inside the unit is an ARM-based SOC ZUIKI Z7213{{Cite web|url=http://www.zuiki.co.jp/products/z7213/|title = ZUIKI Z7213 | 瑞起｜ZUIKI｜ARM SoC ソリューション| date=March 14, 2022 }} and 512 MB of flash memory.{{r|IGN reveal}} It includes either one or two (dependent on region's bundle options) full-size replica controllers that connect through USB (thus original controllers are incompatible),{{r|Polygon reveal}} a USB-to-Micro-B power cable (USB AC adapter in North America), and an HDMI video cable.{{r|IGN reveal}} There are separate releases for North America, Europe, Asia and Japan, as the Mini reproduces the original console's decal and color variations in those regions.{{r|IGN reveal}}{{r|Siliconera article}} Korea is a slight exception, as the Mega Drive was released there by Samsung as the Super Gam*Boy and Super Aladdin Boy; none of these names appear on the Korean Mini.{{r|Original Korean MD}}

All of the games have a save state feature to pause and resume progress and can be played in either the original 4:3 aspect ratio with optional wallpapers or stretched to 16:9 widescreen with HUD elements modified to fit onto the screen.{{cite web |last1=Glagowski |first1=Peter |title=The Genesis Mini will be a real treat for retro enthusiasts |url=https://www.destructoid.com/the-genesis-mini-will-be-a-real-treat-for-retro-enthusiasts-557184.phtml |website=Destructoid.com |date=June 15, 2019 |access-date=27 January 2020}} Certain games have regional variants that can be accessed by changing the system's language settings (e.g. switching the system language from English to Japanese will change Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine into Puyo Puyo.){{r|Kotaku release date}}{{cite web |title='ASIA EDITION' SEGA MEGADRIVE MINI (GENESIS MINI) : Unboxing & Game play |website = YouTube|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toM_gPb0lvY |ref=yt-asian-edition |language=en}}

The North American and European models of the Genesis Mini come bundled with two three-button controllers, while the Japanese model comes with two six-button controllers.{{r|Polygon reveal}} Officially licensed six-button controllers made specifically for the Mini are also sold separately in North America and Europe.{{r|Six Button Sold Separately for US/PAL}} Official model accessories of a miniature Mega-CD, a miniature Super 32X, a miniature Sonic & Knuckles lock-on Genesis cartridge, and a miniature Sonic the Hedgehog standard Mega Drive cartridge were also sold separately in Japan.{{r|Mini Add-ons}} Miniature replicas of the Sega CD and Sega 32X in both the North American and European versions were also manufactured but only distributed to select members of the media.{{r|segacdmini}}

The Mini 2 system is modeled after the Mega Drive 2 variant of the original console and comes bundled with over 50 games and a single six-button controller in all regions. It uses the same SOC chip as the first Mini, albeit with more memory and storage. In addition to the first Mini's emulation features, the Mini 2 includes the option to emulate the sound outputs of the original Genesis or Genesis 2. Like with the original Mega Drive Mini, a set of model accessories consisting of a miniature Mega-CD 2, a miniature Virtua Racing cartridge, and a miniature Sonic CD disc was released in Japan alongside the system, including compatibility parts with the first Mega Drive Mini and its accessories.{{ref|https://sega.jp/mdmini2/mdtowermini2.html}} Additionally, a USB-powered Cyber Stick controller based on the original flight stick controller produced by Sharp was released alongside the system in Japan and provides analog input for After Burner II, Night Striker, and Starblade.{{cite web | url=https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2022/06/sega-announces-a-usb-cyber-stick-controller-for-the-mega-drive-mini-2 | title=Sega Announces a USB Cyber Stick Controller for the Mega Drive Mini 2 |website=Nintendolife.com| date=June 24, 2022 }}{{cite web |title=Mega Drive Mini 2 Interview |url=https://www.famitsu.com/news/202206/24265731.html |website=Famitsu |access-date=1 December 2022}}

Production and release

The Sega Genesis Mini was first announced at the Sega Fes show in April 2018.{{r|IGN reveal}} The announcement was part of a trend of releasing smaller versions of retro video game consoles.{{r|Polygon reveal}} It was delayed in September, missing the console's 30th-anniversary window,{{Cite web |last1=McWhertor |first1=Michael |title=Sega delays its Mega Drive Mini to 2019 for an overhaul |work=Polygon |date=2018-09-19 |url=https://www.polygon.com/2018/9/19/17878298/sega-mega-drive-mini-genesis-release-date-delay |access-date=2019-03-31 |df=mdy-all }} when Sega dropped its partnership with AtGames,{{r|IGN reveal}} whose 2017 Sega Genesis Flashback was critically panned for its production quality.{{r|Kotaku release date|Polygon reveal}} Instead of using AtGames's Flashback software on a Japan-exclusive Mini, Sega handled the entire production of the system.{{r|Kotaku release date}} The system was released worldwide on September 19, 2019,{{r|IGN reveal}} except in Europe and the Middle East, where it was delayed until October 4, 2019, due to distribution issues.{{cite web |last1=Glagowski |first1=Peter |title=The Genesis/Mega Drive Mini has been delayed in Europe |url=https://www.destructoid.com/the-genesis-mega-drive-mini-has-been-delayed-in-europe-562258.phtml |website=Destructoid.com |date=July 29, 2019 |access-date=27 September 2019}}

M2, who previously collaborated with Sega on the Sega Ages and Sega 3D Classics Collection series, produced the Mini's ports.{{r|IGN reveal}} Sega emphasized first-party production quality in its marketing for the Mini,{{r|Polygon reveal}} as the company returns to the hardware business after last producing the Sega Dreamcast in 2001.{{Cite web |last1=Grant |first1=Christopher |title=Sega Genesis Mini (aka Mega Drive Mini) announced |work=Polygon |date=2018-04-13 |url=https://www.polygon.com/2018/4/13/17237000/sega-mega-drive-mini-classic-edition |access-date=2019-03-31 |df=mdy-all }} The menu music was written by Yuzo Koshiro, who was also the composer of the compilation's Beyond Oasis, Streets of Rage 2, and The Revenge of Shinobi.{{r|Kotaku release date}} The Sega Genesis Mini had sold over 300,000 units by the end of March 2020.{{cite web|url=https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/01669057/filing-history/MzI5NzU3MDE2NGFkaXF6a2N4/document?format=pdf&download=0|title=Sega Europe Limited Annual Financial Statements|website=gov.uk|page=4|date=March 2020|accessdate=September 7, 2022}}
