This new Classics Collection brings you a selection of the best first party games that came out on that console. By releasing quality arcade ports, as well as original games that are played even today, like Sonic The Hedgehog, the Mega Drive was part of the 90's pop culture worldwide, and was the only threat to Nintendo's market-share in the US.
Preceding the Super Nintendo's launch by 2 years, the Mega Drive released because of a desire by Sega to compete with the powerhouse that was Nintendo. It was Sega's most successful home console, selling a total of 30.75 million units. The Mega Drive (Genesis in the US) was a Sega 16-bit console released in 1988 in Japan.
