I hope GOG is getting involved here. Yeah, I know, they've only released PC games so far. But still. It would be unfortunate if the only major portal that doesn't get these games is the one dedicated fully to retro games in the first place.

+1
It is about time Sega signed on with GOG. If only for the Total War games and the Saturn and Dreamcast ports like Panzer Dragoon and Sonic Adventure DX

If GOG got them then I hope they were sold in a pack or something. $6 each would be a bit uncompetitive.
Needs moar Streets of Rage and Shadowron too.

Comix Zone!? Hell yes! I've been trying to find a working ROM of that since my old Genesis finally died years ago and all I've ever been able to find a broken versions of the game in English or working versions in Japanese, neither of which are right for me.

Clearly. But I don't think that it would be a problem to make some nice $5.99 & $9.99 packs here (Sega were quite fond of sequels after all). Besides, GOG have been talking about a lower price point, so... :-)

I wouldn't mind the RPGs : Phantasy Star IV and Buck Rogers:Countdown to Doomsday and D&D:Warriors of the Eternal Sun as a package deal....for £5-£6.
I still load up my MegaDrive for PS4 :D

I would just like to add Landstalker and Shining Force I & II

SF2 was good! And Shining in the Darkness. Don't think I've got the first one. Yeah, add those.

But first we need Sega here. I don't know how likely that is.

Would definitely buy these on GOG. Hopefully they make an exception of sorts.
SF2 is my favourite game period. It is just inconceivably good. And I think the strategy fanatics on PC would really appreciate it.

At last I can send some money to the publisher for my ROMs. I am a firm believer in only "ROM-ing" something if it is not for sale new anywhere, so when the Wii launched with its retro games my entire ROM collection became a moral quandary.
I hope other publishers do this, and soon.

Sadly, I don't see SEGA Japan wanting to play nice with GOG. They don't like the PC.

SEGA doesn't like the PC? ;)

Every.Single.Word.You've.Said.I.Agree

Back when I was a kid, I had a bunch of Sega games for PC.
There was like this box you would buy, and it had 2 Sonic platforming games, a Sonic racing game, Comix Zone, Shining Force 1, and probably a couple others I don't remember.
It was a legit CD too, wasn't just some burned copy of Genesis roms.
Edit: I found it. It was Sega Smash Pack 2.
