ff7cce8f-37c1-4480-b113-11d39a5f09e2Whether you remember firing up your old Sega Master System and Genesis/MD consoles and being super excited about the latest Sonic the Hedgehog or awesome arcade romp, or if you missed that period altogether but are a big fan of retro stuff, Sega has you covered with Sega 3D Classics Collection, coming to your hands via the 3DS on April 26!

The collection will feature the following 9 games, all with 3D visuals added in!:

  • Power Drift – A high octane sprite-based circuit racer.
  • Puyo Puyo 2 – A head-to-head competitive puzzle game.
  • Maze Walker – A 3D mystery adventure.
  • Fantasy Zone II: The Tears of Opa-Opa – A classic psychedelic scrolling shooter.
  • Fantasy Zone II W – Fantasy Zone II W is basically an updated version of the game above.
  • Sonic The Hedgehog – Control the iconic character in the classic fast-paced platformer.
  • Thunder Blade – Helicopters, guns, missiles and explosions. What more do you need?
  • Galaxy Force II – Save the galaxy in this space themed3D shoot ’em up.
  • Altered Beast – A beat ’em up set in ancient Greece.

Yes, technically some of these are already available on the eShop, but here you can enjoy them in a physical (or digital) package, plus four games that have never been available on the shop!

Retailing at $29.99 US, this should be a fun way to relieve some great classics from the late-80s and 1990s right in the palms of your hands!
