Product Information

As a result of the congressional hearings, Night Trap started to generate more sales and released ports to the PC, Sega 32X, and 3DO. According to Digital Pictures founder Tom Zito, "You know, I sold 50,000 units of Night Trap a week after those hearings." [101] Although experiencing increased sales, Sega decided to recall Night Trap and re-release it with revisions in 1994 due to the congressional hearings. [105] After the close of these hearings, video game manufacturers came together to establish the rating system that Lieberman had called for. Initially, Sega proposed the universal adoption of its system, but after objections by Nintendo and others, Sega took a role in forming a new one. This became the Entertainment Software Rating Board, an independent organization that received praise from Lieberman. [101] With this new rating system in place for the 1994 holiday season, Nintendo decided its censorship policies were no longer needed, and the SNES port of Mortal Kombat II was released uncensored.

All these flaws do bring me to the real crux surrounding my review of this console and others I have looked at and will be in the future (including the Sinclair ZX Spectrum Vega I reviewed recently) – just who is this console aimed at and are the hardcore Sega fans right to be angry over the machine’s failings? Then there's Tetris - a conversion of Sega Tetris from the arcade made for the Japanese Mega Drive. Only a small handful of copies exist, making this the most expensive Mega Drive game in existence. It's neat to see it preserved on the Mega Drive Mini and the fact that it's there at all points to a supreme level of fan service from Sega and M2. Lastly, there's Darius - there has been a lot of speculation and conjecture over who developed this conversion - but either way, this is a full conversion of the original Darius, which we've never seen before on the Mega Drive. The sequel received an original release on the system - but not Darius 1 - though the game was ported over to the PC Engine. Either way, it's pretty neat having a brand new port available for the Mini's release.

But if you forget about these flaws, like i later did, the console isn't really that bad. It's a great deal cheaper than the new consoles and a great way to carry around a bunch of great SEGA games.

The appearance of the Mega Drive was designed by a team led by Mitsushige Shiraiwa that drew inspiration from audiophile equipment and automobiles. Shiraiwa said this more mature look helped to target the Mega Drive to all ages, unlike the Famicom, which was aimed primarily at children. [24] According to Sato, the Japanese design for the Mega Drive was based on the appearance of an audio player, with "16-bit" embossed in a golden metallic veneer to create an impression of power.

It has been suggested that this was the result of a trademark dispute, but Rosen is adamant he simply didn't like the term 'Mega Drive'. 'I came up with the name "Genesis" because I felt this would be a new beginning for Sega,' he explains. 'At first, the Japanese management didn't care for the word, but I insisted on it.'
