Once we loaded Sega Mega Drive Classics we were totally impressed by the opening title sequence, which we will leave as a surprise (Ed: Unless you have already experienced it on the PS4/XBone), but we can tell you this much, it’s pretty darn awesome – either that or we are too easy to please.

These old favourites aren’t just dumped from their cartridges and thrown in this package, no sirree, they have had a raft of cool modern features injected into them including mirror mode, rewind (for when you slip up), controller customisation, online multiplayer and achievements, optional emulation enhancement filters like pixel scaling and save states to save your game at any time, meaning players – both old and new, should find revisiting these retro games an absolute blast. There are 50+ classic Sega 16-bit games to satisfy almost every genre under the sun, from arcade action, adventure, pinball (sort of), shooters, beat ‘em ups, fighters, puzzlers, hack’n slashers, tactical RPGs to everyone’s favourite, platformers – and there are lots of platformers (which isn’t a bad thing)! Sega Mega Drive Classics on the Nintendo Switch is the largest collection of retro classic games in one pack. S.C.A.T.Woohoo, the iconic retro collection Sega Mega Drive Classics has landed on the Nintendo Switch™ and boy, it is a ripper! We thought the PS4 version was awesome (which it is!), but you can’t take your PS4 on the train with you to play these classic Mega Drive games.It includes some downloadable content at no extra cost too, such as the Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Happy Home Paradise DLC and the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass (with the latest course pack now available). Those who pay extra for the Expansion Pack also gain access to classic N64, Sega Mega Drive / Genesis, and Game Boy Advance games. It effectively turns your Nintendo Switch into an NES Classic Mini or SNES Classic Mini. There are more than 100 games available across the collection.
