SEGA 3D Classics Announced for 3DS through Nintendo eShop

Nostalgic gamers rejoice! Nintendo will be resurrecting a number of classic SEGA Mega Drive and Master System games, including Altered Beast, through the Nintendo eShop adapted especially for the portable 3DS platform.

Thanks to Nintendo’s strengthening ties with one time rival SEGA action titles such as Streets of Rage and Shinobi will be joined by eco-aware adventure Ecco the Dolphin and of course spiky blue mascot Sonic the Hedgehog will be up for a re-spin when games arrive as part of the SEGA 3D Classics range available in the UK and Europe only through 3DS and 3DS XL consoles with WiFi.

Not only are the games coming back (at a non-specified point in the near future) but they’ve also got an added dimension thanks to the handheld’s innovative glasses-free 3D factor and our pocket pal will bring games from our childhood back like never before!

The announced list of SEGA 3D Classics includes:

Altered Beast
Ecco the Dolphin
Galaxy force
Shinobi
Sonic the Hedgehog
Space Harrier
Streets of Rage
Super Hang On

With more games expected the Gadget Helpline is excited to see which of our favourite SEGA titles from yesteryear will be next to make a comeback!
