Support for SEGA Genesis / Mega Drive Mini 2 #55

Open PW5190 opened 2 years ago

PW5190 commented 2 years ago

SEGA is releasing a more powerful Genesis / Mega Drive Mini (in the form of a miniature Genesis / Mega Drive model 2) with 60 titles, including SEGA CD / MEGA CD games! Hopefully Hakchi can be updated to support it, so we can dump all of that system's games, including the seven bonus titles. Believe it or not, it launches tomorrow worldwide (on October 27)! I got my NA Genesis Mini 2 pre-ordered back in August, and mine won't arrive until November. Keep me posted when ROM extraction from that system is possible, OK? I can't wait to see what kind of games this successor has, and VS Puyo Puyo SUN is one of seven bonus games that got me interested in this system. And I wonder, since many SEGA CD / MEGA CD emulators require a BIOS to run, can the SEGA CD / MEGA CD BIOS be extracted from the Genesis / Mega Drive Mini 2 as well? Who knows?

EDIT: The SEGA Genesis / Mega Drive Mini 2 is out now!

Could also be worth keeping an eye on Project Lunar as it is related to the original Genesis Mini.

Don't expect a new update for Project Lunar anytime soon. That app is outdated because the ModMyClassic team has been inactive for two years.
