SEGA Genesis Flashback Console Includes 85 Games
The SEGA Genesis Flashback, a new console from AtGames that features 85 built-in titles, has been announced for release this September.
In addition to the slew of built-in games, including the titles from the Sonic, Phantasy Star, Shining Force and Mortal Kombat series, the console includes a cartridge port that supports "almost all" of the original SEGA Genesis and Mega Drive cartridges—a feature that was lacking from Nintendo's micro console, the NES Classic Edition.
Also packed in are two Genesis-style 2.4ghz wireless controllers and two controller ports for those who wish to use classic wired controllers.
The SEGA Genesis Flashback also features 720p HDMI output and scan line filtering. Additionally, every game will support a feature that let's you save, pause and rewind the action.

It took the original Destiny a while to find its footing, but it had turned into something truly special by the time the Taken King expansion came out. During those early months, it’s clear that Bungie learned a lot about what players wanted from a massive online shooter. The promise for Destiny 2 is that Bungie will continue to build on the solid foundation the original has become. Judging from everything we’ve seen about the sequel so far, that seems to be the case. Read our hands-on impressions for details.
Pathfinder: Kingmaker Could Scratch Your D&D RPG Itch
Something's been missing from the recent spate of 1990s role-playing throwbacks: Dungeons & Dragons. While games like Pillars of Eternity certainly have their influences, the actual D&D rules of classics like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale haven't shown up in a major way. That's why it's a pretty big deal that Pathfinder--a popular adaptation of Dungeons & Dragons' 3.5 edition--has joined with video game developer Owlcat Games to make Pathfinder: Kingmaker.
This means we'll get a traditional fantasy world filled with dwarves, trolls, and half-elves; character classes like barbarians and clerics; and attributes like dexterity and constitution. Combined with an isometric game engine of pausable real-time tactics, just like Baldur's Gate and Pillars of Eternity, and a bunch of text and dialogue options, and Pathfinder: Kingmaker should, at the least, feel like comfort food for the RPG fan.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance Delayed Again
Medieval RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance has been delayed to February 13, 2018, developer Warhorse Studios announced today.
According to the studio, the delay will allow the team "to secure the best quality for the future gamers and community of Kingdom Come: Deliverance." Before today's setback, the RPG was expected to be released sometime this year. It was first announced with a release window of 2016.
Alongside the announcement, Warhorse released a new story trailer focusing on the game's tale of revenge.
Last year, Warhorse announced a publishing partnership with Deep Silver. As part of the deal, Warhorse will handle digital distribution of the PC version, while Deep Silver publishes physical copies of the PC version and all PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of Kingdom Come.
