Hit Squad are desirable because of their packaging.

If you're not in much of a hurry you're surely better off not selling it all together. Dividing into bundles would give you more flexibility.

Aha! That’s what I assumed but was intrigued by the terminology in case it was something else.

Forgive my ignorance but what does ‘wings’ refer to?

3 a month in our dreams!

Did the Mega Drive mini sell poorly or did they just make absolutely loads? I keep seeing it with big discounts, something that never happened with the Nintendo editions.

Had totally forgotten about that. Thankfully a lot of differences when you compare it to Evercade.

Say it ain't so!

Not quite as crazy as the micro GG but still a surprise. https://www.theverge.com/2020/7/7/21315726/sega-astro-city-mini-arcade-cabinet-retro-price-japan

What difference will it make? How often will one of these ever be switched on?

I think we should all be celebrating that there are retro gaming options for everyone nowadays. The Evercade is ideal for those want to have fun with the games and get to collect the releases without being gouged. MiSTer is for the purists, Pi boxes for those who want a massive library and do t mind compromises, mini consoles for those who want a curated mix of authenticity and nostalgia, Analog for those who want the real games but the convenience of connecting to modern TV etc. Everyone is covered now. Not everything works for everyone.

I've said before I think this is more for collectors than anyone else. Sturdy boxes, numbered packaging, nice uniformity, steady release schedule etc… it's a collector's dream. It was pointed out earlier I think that this may be the last ever console to have 100% physical releases.

Grifted seems a bit harsh. It’s not for purists, sure – but it’s great for collectors and those who just want to play the games legally.

That was fascinating. is it known which UK mag leaked Sonic 2?
