Another topic of discussion is whether the company is planning on bringing back ‘Blast Processing‘. A notorious piece of technology that was used as promotion for the original Sega Genesis against Nintendo‘s SNES in North America.
Nintendo discarded the technology at the time as a cheap marketing gimmick. But after 34 years, Sega may prove Nintendo wrong—and this time for good. If it does, the gaming industry may see a retro revolution.

There is no official estimate of how many of these consoles will be transported to the United States, which is unfortunate given that they are actually made in Japan.
Reminder that apparently the only way to order the Genesis Mini 2 is to buy it as an import item from Amazon and pay shipping from Japan. If you want it, get it, as I have no idea how many of these they'll actually make amazon.com/dp/B0B4D19JJ4
