While re-releasing classic Sega games and putting them in a console isn’t new. Putting them in a handheld with screen is! The makers of PSPonTV (PSP to TV adapter) sent DCemu some rather interesting news. At the time we don’t know when it’s going to be released in your area, but here’s the press release to tide you over:

“First, the most exciting thing to happen this year for us may be the SEGA licensed TV game systems. We hope you are equally excited. Sega licensed direct “Plug & Play” TV-game. Since the HK Toy Fair finished, we have finalized the official license from Sega to manufacture many Sega licenced TV game systems and a hand-held console (like Gameboy).

Until now, we have nearly 50 licensed Sega games that you can choose from! Many of them are Sonic the Hedgehog and other big name titles! Our product design is done by a famous Japanese product designer, and resembles the Sega & Sonic style outlook. You will be quite impressed by our current in-house designs.

You can choose from either 10 in 1 or 20 in 1 versions of the “Plug & Play” Sega TV Game systems.

This means you can get the list and choose 10 or 20 games to put inside each game console. You can do less than 10 but the cost would be the same as 10 games. But for example, you can create a Sega Sports game system just for sports games, or a Sega Sonic game system just for Sonic games… however remember the price stays the same for 1 up to 10 games.

The retail price should likely be up to US$29.95 for the 10-in-1 game systems, and up to US$39.95 for the 20-in-1 game systems.

We are developing a Sega hand held system also (like Gameboy), which will contain 20 games and have a high quality 2.5 inch LCD screen. We can create a cartridge based version as well, so you can have 20 games inside plus multi-game cartridges also. Exclusivity is being discussed for some countries. Our in house design for the Hand-Held system is similar to the Sonic design of the plug-and-play TV game system, so you can expect it to be very attractive design.”
