Sega has finally confirmed the full list of games coming to the Mega Drive Mini 2 and Genesis Mini 2.
The final batch of announcements includes a number of brand new titles and new ports.
The brand new games announced are Party Quiz Mega Q 2022 (Japan only), Party Quiz Sega Q (Japan only) and Devi & Pii, which was created by Takashi Iizuka just before he joined the Sonic 3 team.
Meanwhile, new Mega Drive ports of Super Locomotive, Puyo Puyo Sun and Space Harrier 2 have been added (the latter being an enhanced port with smoother scrolling).
With these new additions, the final confirmed game lists for the Japanese and western versions of the Mega Drive Mini 2 / Genesis Mini 2 are as follows:
Mega Drive / Genesis
Mega CD / Sega CD

The Sega Mega Drive Mini 2 / Genesis Mini 2 will launch on October 27.
A Sega representative recently told Polygon that the Genesis Mini 2 will have just one-tenth the supply of 2019’s Sega Genesis Mini due to the ongoing global semiconductor shortage.
They said that, originally, the product may only have launched in Japan, but, “by using Amazon’s ‘Japan Store’ system, we found that at least a small number of units could be sold via Amazon.com, so a portion was allocated to make the North American version.”
Sega has also confirmed today that pre-orders for the European version will open in September.
