Sega has revealed its upcoming mini console, the Sega Mega Drive Mini 2, is getting a £120 (¥19,800) controller.
The USB controller is based upon the Cyber Stick and offers analogue controls for compatible games on Sega’s diminutive system. As demonstrated in yesterday’s announcement livestream, like its 90s predecessor, it’ll feature a throttle, stick, and the ability to suit both right- and left-handed players.
The Sega Mega Drive Mini 2 itself will retail for around half the price of this newly-announced peripheral (thanks, Famitsu).

Sega unveiled the Mega Drive Mini 2, its latest mini retro console, earlier this month after hinting that it had a big “new project” to share with us and teasing that the broadcast would reportedly include appearances from Hiroyuki Miyazaki and Yosuke Okunari. Given the guests, it wasn’t a stretch to presume the secret new project may have something to do with a new Sega retro console – and it turns out that’s exactly what Sega was teasing.
