The only old system I want is a Sega Nomad

I'd want a Nintendo all-in-one.

Reselling the same old systems would be a rather stupid marketing plan. The old systems can already be purchased (though it may be difficult). As well, the systems are outdated in technology... and if adjustments were made to the rereleases, then it just wouldn't be the same.

What they could do, however, is have massive remakes of games for the newer systems. I'm not talking about stupi 6 packs, I'm thinking more like 20 packs... with GOOD games (no pong, or crap like that...).

There was a Genesis 2, and a Genesis 3... I believe. I think the second was made not long after... aah, Super Nintendo (I guess) and the third after PSX. The second was to make it smaller, and the third was because SEGA needed money, so they did what Playstation did with their "PSone" (though before them).

As for "3x"... maybe you're thinking "32x", or something like that. That's a SEGA add-on. Pretty lousy, and probably another reason why SEGA went down... yeah, too many new consoles.

Master System
Game Gear
Genesis
Genesis II
Genesis III
Sega CD
Sega 32x
Sega Saturn
Dreamcast

And probably a few more...

Ya know, they should make those packs with like 100 games...I have a game for my Famicom that has 76 games in 1, if they could do that for Famicom, they could sure do something more miraculous with the newer consoles.

They could just make the new gen systems have an attachment you could buy to play the old games.
