Sega Genesis Mini hands-on: 5 things you’ll love

I sure am loving my Sega Genesis Mini, and I think you will too. Sega has sent me an early system, and I’ve been delving deep into the classic console’s built-in library of 42 games. You’ll have a chance to buy one of your own for $80 on September 18.

I was a big Sega fan when I grew up, so many of these games were cornerstones of my childhood. But my enjoyment is extending far beyond playing through Sonic the Hedgehog for the 50th time (although that is quite lovely). I’ve put together five of the biggest reasons people are going to love the Genesis Mini as much I do.
