Classic Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis Game Now Ported to the 3DS

Sega revealed that the classic Sega Genesis (Sega Megadrive in Japan) game, Sonic the Hedgehog will be available for the first time in stereoscopic 3D for the Nintendo 3DS!

The new version has additional features, which includes a spin dash move, mid-game saves, the option to skip to any stage or act freely, and the choice to play the Japanese or overseas version (with slightly different layouts and bonuses).

The new version takes advantage of the stereoscopic display to allow players to recreate the rounded, bulged screen of a old CRT television. In short, it is still the same classic Genesis game... in 3D. As of this writing, there are no plans for an overseas release.
