Starting next month iPhone users who have fond memories of Genesis titles from their past will have an easier way to find and buy some of those games. Some old school titles are already available in the App Store but they are standalone games. According to Gizmodo here’s where the new storefront comes in.
Starting in February you will be able to download Sega’s Ultimate Genesis. The free app acts like a virtual console for already existing and eventually newly released emulated Genesis titles on your iPhone. The app is free and is packaged with Space Harrier II. Other Genesis titles already available are:
- Ecco the Dolphin: $2.99
- Shining Force: $2.99
- Golden Axe: $4.99
- Sonic the Hedgehog: $5.99
The service doesn’t really bring anything new to the table other than making it easier for users to play and buy Genesis titles, but that added convenience in itself makes the free download more than worth it.
