ninjarobot_22 09/21/20 12:11:25 PM #14:	Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles is on Sonic's Ultimate Genesis collection. That's probably the best Genesis collection since it includes, Streets of Rage 1, 2, 3 and Sonic 1, 2, 3 and Knuckles. Here's what I like about the mini collection that the Ultimate collection doesn't have: Castlevania: Bloodlines, Toe Jam & Earl, Gunstar Heroes, Earthworm Jim, Castle of Illusion, Contra: Hard Corps, Ghouls n Ghosts, Street Fighter 2, Virtua Fighter 2, and Eternal Champions. Now what I like about Ultimate collection: Golden Axe 2, Golden Axe 3, Sonic 3, Sonic and Knuckles, Ristar, Streets of Rage, and Streets of Rage 3. I'm a fan of games so I have both even though some games are on both systems. Plus, you get to play with an original Genesis controller with the mini. However, if you're only thinking of getting one, I'd get the Ultimate collection because Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles and the Streets of Rage series are must haves. <cite>ninjarobot_22 posted [p:944896736] in Is the Seg...

It has to do with music licensing I think. And yes it's a solid mini system. Way better than the ps mini Literally every mini system sans the Commadore 64 mini was way better.

That surprises me. Sonic 3 was on wii virtual console, and it was on Sonic Mega collection as well as Sonic's ultimate Genesis collection on the Xbox 360/PS3. They still could have released Sonic & knuckles though (no MJ music in that game). But it would have been stupid having only half of a game on there. --- pojr I summon it.
