Launch Editions Of Sega 3D Classics Collection Will Include Stickers
Sega 3D Classics Collection, which gathers nine classic Sega games which have been updated with stereoscopic 3D on 3DS into one package, is getting a bonus for those who grab the game early.
Alongside the game, first-run copies will come with a set of classic Sega decals. For surprisingly in-depth details on each of the stickers, you can check out the included text of the press release announcing the stickers.
- Master System logo - Originally released in 1985 as the Sega Mark-III in Japan, the Master System was redesigned and renamed when it launched in North America in 1986 with an added FM Sound Unit.
- Master System console - An authentic line-art likeness of the North American/European version of the console!
- Mega Drive logo - Originally released in Japan in 1988, the Mega Drive was the 16-bit successor to the Master System. Widely considered one of the greatest video game consoles of all time, the system was home to many classic games such as Altered Beast, Sonic the Hedgehog, and many more.
- Genesis logo - Please choose a "Blast Processing" joke to your liking. Are we good here?
- Genesis console - An authentic line-art likeness of the Model 1 SEGA Genesis console!
16-Bit - Emblazoned on the front of the Genesis, the 16-Bit logo let everyone know you were working with POWER. Affix this decal to give a blast processing boost to whatever needs it most.* - Professor Asobin - Before Sonic, Alex Kidd, and Opa Opa, this dapper white rabbit appeared in most SG-1000 game manuals and gave helpful advice to players. Although he was briefly replaced by Dr. Games, he soon returned and appeared in game manuals up until the Mega Drive/Genesis era.
- SEGA logo - A SEGA decal collection wouldn't be complete without the company logo!
- GigaDrive logo - This last logo represents something different than the other ones we've covered because it's a "virtual console." In order for the SEGA 3D Classics Collection to run perfectly on the Nintendo 3DS, developer M2 created the GigaDrive which is how these games take full advantage of the 3DS's capabilities (such as stereoscopic 3D).
The Sega 3D Classics Collection arrives on 3DS April 26 for $29.99. For more on the collection, head here. You can also get more info about the games by visiting Sega's website.
