An interesting marketing ploy Sega
Most habrovchan remembers not only the Soviet " Electronics ", but also gorgeous (for the nineties) game consoles Sega Mega Drive and Sega Genesis . I remember sitting for days trying to break the Imperial forces and the rest of my opponents again and again in Dune: The battle for Arracis. Then a computer appeared, then a communicator, a laptop and everything else. It is clear that Sega is now gathering dust in the closet, not needed and forgotten. In fact, “nothing is forgotten,” and Sega was just waiting for the right moment to revive its power. She can do it, and with the help of the most modern smartphone iPhone from Apple.
So, next month a unique application should appear in the App Store , which can greatly please the old generation of gamers - Sega Ultimate Genesis Collection. This application is the Sega Mega Drive emulator on the iPhone, which comes with a single game, Space Harrier II (to be honest, I don’t remember this).

For those who are now going to write in the comments “yes well, emulators of game consoles on the iPhone have been around for a long time, I discovered America, I also answer” - it's not about the emulator itself, but about the way the games are distributed for it.
In general, the first piece of cheese, as already mentioned above, is free, and then you have to pay for the “Segov” games. Here is a list of prices for the most popular games that will also appear in the App Store in the near future:
Sonic - $ 6
Golden Ax is - $ 5
Ecco the Dolphin - $ 3
Shining Force - $ 3
How do you price range? Not weak!
And now about why I wrote all this - in order to share with you, dear habrovchane, admiration for the ingenious idea of ​​Sega - because the calculation is correct, there is a high probability that the games will start buying by the hundreds and thousands, and the money will flow in Treasury of the company of the river. And Sega has earned on these games more than once or twice, and now, it seems, a new “golden age” is starting for the company.
Truly said one, the deceased now, a scientist - "from one chicken you can cook three soups." After all, the truth is, what is the stock broth for Sega? Well done, guys, marketing at a height =)
