Brilliant idea. Every other game developer is busting their ass trying to come up with amazing graphics for the latest consoles and computers, and Sega decides to make some classic LCD games but with Sonic the Hedgehog characters! Brilliant. They could hire monkeys as graphic designers now if they wanted.

My kids got these today. They are 6.5, 3.5, and 2. On the way home they all sat quietly pushing the buttons, the only sound coming from the back seat was little bleeps and bloops. They're awesome. And obviously "gateway" gadgets.

I remember as a kid one day I found a little LCD game on the road, it was some fighter plane thing. I got so good at it, I could play it for hours without dying. Then one day for some reason I smashed it. It was funny, the bleeps and bloops slowly got lower and lower and then died out, like in cartoons.
