So, hopefully, no redesigned AtGames crappy product.

Apparently AtGames has claimed responsibility, but the source I was able to find is a Facebook post I can't read because I refuse to get a Facebook account: https://www.facebook.com/ATGFlashback/posts/569040440124610

Hopefully that link isn't something other than I think it is.

Before this announcement Sega somewhere said they were going to bring their AtGames systems east.  I saw this mini announcement and assumed that meant this was the AtGames product going east, but I haven't read the official confirmation yet.

AT made a comment saying it would have better emulation than the previous version.  I didn't play with the one they released a bit ago; could anyone who has explain what the problems were?

...I guess I hope this is good but...Sega will put “Genesis” on total garbage and sell it. They’ve done it many times.

If atgames is handling then it will be a terrible plug'n'play console.There last one for the u.s was buggy and iffy emulation.

I wish they didn't have authority to make a comment in the first place. Another AT Games clone? F­UCK

I don't think the AtGames systems already available are that bad.  I bought one for a gift for my nephew and he loves it.  Emulation isn't perfect, but it is cheap and you get what you pay for.  If I spent $300 on the AtGames Genesis I bought, I would be upset, for the price it was a great way to introduce Genesis to a little kid.

It sure is cute.  I don't expect it to be anything other than a slightly improved version of the flashback thing they brought out last year.

Even if the emulation is good, SOMETHING about every ATgames product is going to suck. I got one of their SMS/GG handhelds with thirty games. I'm happy because it has titles that never made it to the SMS and the screen is better than the GG, but it's pretty janky.

1/3 of the games are unplayable because the d-pad is so sloppy.
1/3 of the games are unplayable without using the TV output because the screen is so small.

AT made an SMS/GG clone?  I've seen all the Genny ones they did, but didn't know about that.  Yeah, ATGames....., here's hoping Sega runs a tight ship over the quality.

Given the model they are showing they are clearly inspired by sales of NES/SNES Classic Mini. I sadly fear the quality won’t even been in the same universe but they may sell just as many units.

Yeah pretty much. I won't be buying this.

Glad I can save some money now and not buy it. 

AT Games should just sell the cases on their own as well with a Raspberry Pi holder, they'd probably do well just for that.

Sega doesn't have the pull anymore from the community like nintendo has. This is going to sell nowhere what nes and snes mini have. I wish it would but it's not going to. I also think the mini fad is wearing down. That or everyone has one at this point that really wants one. You can find snes mini's anywhere here.
