AtGames, the current keeper of the Sega Brand and games is releasing a new console next month that aims squarely at the success of the NES & SNES Classic called the Sega Genesis Flashback HD. Sporting an 85 game lineup, 720p HD, wireless controllers and the ability to play Sega Genesis games and use your old controllers it's a pretty interesting prospect. It's just that... well... it's not reviewing very well.
Kotaku gave the system and resounding "meh" while Kotaku basically think's it's terrible. How is it actually? I'm not sure, but it's a compelling system with actual Sega Genesis playback and the 85 included games is a compelling prospect. I think i'm going to wait for some Amazon reviews of the system before I decide to pick it up but if it even has average reviews I think the value might be right.

Wow that's seriously dumbfounding in some cases. The menu most of all.
Sad.
