Glen-i Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Sonic Spinball there, ruining a perfectly good line-up. 2

Second one right, the one that happens right before Dragon's Trap? Either way, that game has pushed me over from "Maybe" to "Do want" I'll have to ask @Dcubed to order one for me. 1
Ike Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 So they did include Street Fighter yet we only have the 3-button pad... Retrobit confirmed their controllers they released in April will work on the Mega Drive Mini which is good news.

Either way, that game has pushed me over from "Maybe" to "Do want" I'll have to ask @Dcubed to order one for me. I get seriously confused about this series, but the 2nd one is Monster Land and it's an arcade/Master System game. Not played it myself, but I'm still looking forward to seeing how an RPG-like game can work on two different systems like that. Monster World is the fifth Wonder Boy game overall and the third Monster World game. It's a very confusing series to classify, but an excellent game!

Have to admit that I'm disappointed in the US/EU replacements for the JPN games. Sonic Spinball is hot garbage and Vectorman is really quite mediocre. SF2 and GN'G are also wasted slots, as the arcade versions are so much better and are readily available elsewhere (well, GN'G is actually not easy to come by anymore; but the arcade versions have been re-released at least a few times!) Wonderboy in Monster World is really the saving grace of the western replacements, but that's not enough to make up for the games that have been lost so far... Wily Wars is a great addition though; being the first time that the US version has ever been released outside of the SEGA Channel! I have to admit, I'm eying up the Asian version as the best version right now. It's just the right combo of the US and JPN lineups, plus they get Alien Solider as an exclusive!! I NEED Alien Soldier! And unless that is one of the remaining titles to be announced elsewhere, that makes it pretty much untouchable! Asian MD Mini list below...

Looks like the best overall lineup (and all versions of the MD Mini include all regional variants of every game anyway). Edited May 20, 2019 by Dcubed 1
S.C.G Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 What... I didn't realise that Alien Soldier is currently exclusive to the JP version? That needs to change with the last lot of games released. I do have ways in which I can play the game already (MD cart which is sadly just a repro and the Wii VC version) but it needs to be played by as many people as possible. Thinking about it, it's also on a lot of the recent Sega compliations, so it's even more baffling as to why it wouldn't be on all versions of the MD mini.

Alien Soldier is currently exclusive to the Asian region version. In fact, for my money, they seem to have the best lineup of the lot! The Asian version is actually available for pre-order on Play-Asia... So I'm waiting until the last set of games get unveiled; but at the moment, I'm leaning towards the Asian version.

Looking at the list i'm pretty disappointed with a lot of the games on offer. Sure, we are getting a few rare gems like Mega Man and Bloodlines but there are far too many games on the list that have simply been released far too many times before in other collections. Why not give other games a chance to shine? I'm still hoping for Soleil or Aladdin to show up on the final list.

You were always going to get some of the usual suspects, like Sonic and Streets of Rage 2, but the last batch of US/EU titles are indeed quite disappointing in that regard. We really didn't need Vectorman and Sonic Spinball... Hopefully the last batch will be more focused on the rare and more niche titles. I reckon Cotton and Panorama Cotton have a decent chance, given that they just announced the remake of the first game for Switch. That would be a great addition! (it's also super rare!). Crusaders of Centy would also be a fab inclusion! Overall though, the lineup is pretty great on all systems, but yeah... The Asian list is just plain better than the US/EU one so far.

The ending was really messed up if I remember right. Took me years to beat that game as well when I was younger, a really good Zelda clone.

I didn't even know about it until a few years back where a topic about it popped up on NeoGaf. It looked fantastic and since then i've wanted to give it a try. The original Mega Drive cart commands quite a high price on eBay.

Reading the thread shows me how much of the story I either didn't pick up on or forgot. Spoiler I remember climbing teh tower to fight God though.

Hero-of-Time Posted May 23, 2019 Author Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Games I want in the final 10: Rocket Knight Adventure Quackshot Desert Strike Aladdin The Adventures of Batman and Robin Sonic 3 Soleil X-Men 2: Clone Wars Power Rangers: The Movie Micro Machines Yeah....i'm not getting any of these. Saying that, I don't think Rocket Knight Adventures is completely out of the question. Edited May 31, 2019 by Hero-of-Time 1
martinist Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 Where's my Aladdin! thats all I want! Would be nice to get sonic 3 too, even if they have to change the music.
