This thing will zap you right back to the '90s. Not literally, though.
Tap to play or pause GIFNow maybe you've heard and maybe you haven't, but there's a new mini console on the market: the Sega Genesis Mini. Sega provided BuzzFeed with a console, so we got to try this sucker hands-on.Everything about the console is a major nostalgia bomb. For example, take a look at the original Genesis box, and compared it to the Genesis Mini box above. They're almost identical, and it gives you that"Christmas morning in 1989" feeling right off the bat.
There's even a little volume toggle and a fake headphone port. They don't do anything but you can move the volume slider anyway.You can even open the cartridge slot! Is it pointless? Yeah, but honestly when I got an SNES Mini I was kinda disappointed that you COULDN'T do this, so props to Sega.Obviously it doesn't actually take cartridges, but maybe you could store some Q-tips or a very small Chapstick in there or something.
