The 20th anniversary of the Sega Genesis’ U.S. debut will soon be upon us, so it shouldn’t be too surprising that all manner of Genny product will be introduced in time to satisfy nostalgia-drunk gamers. And I welcome it.

Hyperkin is one those companies. In late August, it will release two Sega-licensed game systems: The Gen Core Console and the Gen Mobile Handheld. Both systems boast 20 built-in classic Sega titles (including Golden Axe and Sonic the Hedgehog), region-free support for Mega Drive and Genesis cartridges, and Hypercolor 512 Technology that’s designed to keep the visuals looking sharp.  The Gen Mobile takes portable features a TFT-based LCD Screen and rechargeable battery that allows “greater playing time than its predecessors.” Nomad, we’re look directly at you.

The Game Core and Game Mobile will be available later this month for $46 and $60, respectively. Anyone thinking of picking ‘em up?
