I ordered the 64 one when it was announced. These delays are very disappointing. For Blaze to have met the Oct shipping, the units would have been manufactured at least 3 months ago. And only now they've spotted issues with the build quality?! I'm calling BS. Both units were always intended to be released in 2027.
@X68000 Totally incorrect! I have an AES with a Neo SD flashcart and I still buy games on cart and CD. I've also pre-ordered the AES+ with several games. I still buy physical even though I have flashcarts for all my consoles.
Can you confirm if the version shown in the trailer is the actual Mega Drive version or for the recent consoles? It looks a little too slick to be the Mega Drive version.
@jesse_dylan Because it's justified. They have terrible wait times and atrocious customer service. Three times I've waited over 12 months to receive orders, and I finally said that's enough.
Very popular here in Australia and we received it not long after the Japan release. Was one of my favourites back in the day and still enjoy giving it a blast now and then.
I have every single mini console listed here except for the Game Gear Mini. A couple of things that I need to pull you up on - The gamepad included with the A500 Mini is excellent and of high quality, it's not poor at all. Astro City Mini V has zero lag when it's connected to a proper USB power adapter.

Re: More Arcade Classics Are About To Be Revealed For The Taito Egret II Mini
I have 1 and 3 but missed out on 2, and the price of that on the second-hand market is horrendous.

Re: My Arcade's OutRun Mini-Arcade Will Include The Legendary OutRunners
@X68000 It's going to use the same cab as their Pole Position one so it will have analogue control.
Re: My Arcade's OutRun Mini-Arcade Will Include The Legendary OutRunners
@Moroboshi876 I have their Pole Position mini cab with the analogue wheel and it's very playable.
