Sega Genesis Classics heading to consoles — but not the Switch

Sega Genesis Classics will bring more than 50 of the best known Sega Genesis games to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on May 29, Sega announced. But Nintendo Switch is distressingly excluded from that lineup, as many Sega fans are pointing out on the company’s Twitter. While demands for a Switch version of, uh, pretty much any game ever run rampant, it hurts that Sega Genesis Classics won’t hit the Nintendo system — especially with the Wii Shop Channel winding down and no Switch Virtual Console in sight.
The full list includes titles like Altered Beast, Phantasy Star 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Streets of Rage and Toejam & Earl: all stone-cold classics, according to Polygon’s most hardcore Genesis nerds. (There are many more in the currently available PC version of Sega Genesis Classics, which will receive an upgrade on May 29 as well; that update will bring Landstalker: The Treasures of King Nole to the set at no added cost to existing owners.)
