According to the article, not only is TecToy making a new Genesis, but if it does well enough, we might even get a new Master System. They are even trying to get licenses to bring old carts from our glory days back into print.

I'm personally, very happy about this. How about y'all?

This IS exciting!

I wouldn't mind a few of these myself but if it's anything like their new Mega Drive console it's going to be quite an import job.

This is actually a really good idea if TecToy can match the quality of the original Mega Drive cartridges.

I know that it can be done because I have one of the reprint cartridges of Pier Solar, which is a brand new RPG that works perfectly with my 20 year old Mega Drive. So, if a small Indy developer can successfully manufacture authentic Mega Drive cartridges I'm sure that a major company like TecToy can do the same.

Honestly, it's quite a feeling being able to open a new Mega Drive game and play it for the first time in the 21st century. TecToy could make a lot of money here if they get this right.
