"SEGA continues to develop innovative ways to showcase its new generation leadership," says Naoya Tsurumi, Chief Executive Officer, SEGA of America, Inc. and SEGA Europe, Ltd. "SEGA's support of the Virtual Console system will introduce more gamers to classic Genesis hits and reinvigorate many of our popular brands."
Nintendo's Virtual Console will allow Revolution owners to download and play classic NES, SNES and Genesis games through the Revolution network. With a game library of more than 1,000 titles for the Genesis, SEGA is planning to provide a "best of" selection for gamers, enabling them to relive their favorite titles.
