SEGA GAMES 90S 720P
Games are displayed in 720p resolution and your choice of original 4:3 or stretched widescreen. Just make sure you're familiar enough with the system to make it back to the language menu and switch it back to English before you do this. Or you could switch to Chinese or Korea to see the weird mix of Japanese and American games released there (sadly there's no option to change to "US English" and get all the American versions).

Changing to Japanese for example lets you see the different (generally much nicer) artwork on the cases, and experience the games without the censorship or added difficulty that came with a surprising number of the Western versions of these games. While Nintendo took the nuclear option of binning the PAL releases of old games and including US versions on its microconsoles, Sega's strategy shows it really cares about maintaining players' childhood memories.Īnd speaking of regions, perhaps the coolest feature of the Mega Drive Mini is that changing the language in the settings lets you play the games as they appeared in other countries. Thankfully M2 has done a fantastic job optimising the originals here, addressing the most obvious downsides by dropping coloured borders, correcting frame rate and speeding up music where necessary.
