Sega CD
from Game Players Nintendo Guide
August 1992

 Sega of America came on strong at CES, with it's announcement of a $99 Genesis
system that matches the new Super NES price, and a sneak peak at an early version
of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 as well. Sega's $99 portable Game Gear also attracted a
lot of attention with lots of new software, including Batman 2 and
Streets of Rage, due this fall.
 The biggest splash from Sega was the intro of the Sega CD, a $299 compact disc
unit that connects to the Genesis to play a new generation of video games. It also
plays CD audio discs and the CD+G (graphics) format. Look for 20 CD titles when
the Sega CD launches in November, and another 20 next spring. The Super NES
CD-player from Nintendo of America is expected early in 1993.
