Analogue's Nt and Super Nt are the best ways to enjoy your old NES and Super Nintendo games. Now they're doing the same for the Sega Genesis with the Mega Sg. It uses advanced upscaling to deliver 1080p visuals over HDMI with zero lag, and 48KHz 16-bit stereo to do justice to all those classic soundtracks. Compatible with Sega Genesis, Mega Drive, and Master System game cartridges out of the box, it also has an edge connector that lets it work with original Sega CD and Mega CD units, and will also support Mark III, Game Gear, Sega MyCard, SG-1000, and SC-3000 games via adapters. It ships without a controller, so it's up to you if you want to use originals, hooked up via the ports on the front, or go wireless with 8BitDo's M30 gamepads.

Microsoft Project xCloud

Build with the goal of making games as ubiquitous as music and movies, Microsoft Project xCloud promises a future where your games are available to play anywhere, on any device. To achieve this, they're working with developers to make it easy to support the service and using their hardware know-how to build custom blade computers housing the components of multiple Xbox consoles, which are then stored and scaled at the company's Azure data centers. Currently in testing, the service, as of right now, works on mobile phones and tablets paired with an Xbox Wireless Controller or via touch controls. Microsoft says the project will be a "multi-year journey", with public trials beginning next year.

Oculus Quest VR Headset

The Oculus Rift was one of the first, and likely most well-known, modern VR headsets available. It was also expensive and required a powerful PC to run it. The Oculus Quest realizes the company's vision for VR gaming in a self-contained unit. Notably, it uses four wide-angle sensors and software to track your position in real-time without external sensors, while also keeping track of the included touch controllers. The optics are the same as the Oculus Go, with a display resolution of 1600x1440 per eye, improved built-in audio, 64GB of storage, and a launch library of over 50 games, all ready to run on nothing more than the hardware inside. Coming Spring 2019.

It's been nearly 25 years since Sony introduced the original PlayStation.

Two controllers are included, as are 20 pre-loaded titles, including Tekken 3, Ridge Racer Type 4, and Final Fantasy VII. In stores December 3, the 24th anniversary of the console's launch in Japan.

Pac-Man Quarter Size Arcade Cabinet

While playing classic games can bring out nostalgia, holding a controller can't replicate the feel of playing the arcade game. This Pac-Man Quarter Size Arcade Cabinet can, without taking up a ton of space. It stands just under 17" tall, yet is incredibly detailed, replicating the iconic 1980 cabinet down to the graphics around the screen and quarter slots. Amazingly, it's still playable and will be joined in 2019 by cabinets for Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga, and Galaxian, making this the beginning of a full pint-sized arcade. Limited to just 10,000 units.

Xbox Adaptive Controller

Designing a game controller for all ages is tough. Making one that works for the disabled as well is basically impossible, yet Microsoft appears to have done it. Thanks to two large programmable buttons, multiple USB ports, and a dizzying array of 3.5mm jacks, the Xbox Adaptive Controller accommodates a wide variety of use cases. It was built in conjunction with many third-party manufacturers to support the broadest swatch of alternative controls, meaning that no matter what your range of motion or physical ability, you'll be able to create a custom solution that works for you — whether that means foot pedals, large arcade-style joysticks, or something even more elaborate.

Atari VCS Entertainment System

Modeled after the classic 2600 console, the Atari VCS — formerly known as the Ataribox — is far more than just another retro-gaming cash grab. While exact specs are still unknown, it is clear that the VCS will have capabilities beyond playing 2600 and 5200 games, as apps for major video and music streaming services are planned, as is an open Linux-based OS. Another hint to its true intentions lies in the preview image, which shows both a classic single-button joystick and a fully modern, dual analog stick controller. Pricing is yet to be announced, but pre-orders are expected to open soon.

It was a legend in it's day, and now that legend is back. Street Fighter II brought the two-player fighting game to the masses when it released on the SNES in 1992.
