I just got into the Wii Shop Channel and saw this promotion. I hope this is not old, but I haven't seen it anywhere.
Starting December 24, Sega will be lowering the price of select Sega Genesis titles to 500 Wii Points. This includes games like Sonic the Hedgehogh 1,2 and 3, Gunstar Heroes, Shinning Force, and others. (I'm too lazy to go check on the full list)
This offer ends January 6.

Oh, and by the way, this offer is for the US (at least).

EDIT:
here's the complete list:

Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Sonic the Hedgehog 3
Gunstar Heroes
ToeJam & Earl
Puyo Puyo 2
Shining Force
Golden Axe
Altered Beast
Streets of Rage 2

I am way too lazy to think of something clever.

It's like, I just love a cowboy
You know
I'm just like, I just, I know, it's bad
But I'm just like
Can I just like, hang off the back of your horse
And can you go a little faster?!

I got on there just now and the other titles were Toe Jam and Earl 1 and Streets of Rage 2. I think thats the only others it said.

No, actually, there were around 12-15 of them. I remember Puyo Puyo 2 as well.

drop them an e-mail using the contact feature seems to be the best way to get their attention

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!

Sounds cool. I think I need Gunstar Heroes, Golden Axe, and then I'll need to give a quick look over Toe Jam and Earl and Streets of Rage 2.

Edit: Actually I'll go Gunstar Heroes and Streets of Rage 2 instead.

Hopefully, it will. If you don't have Shining Force, I recommend looking into it! (If only the second made it onto the sale)
Also hopefully enough people become aware of this so that more sales will be had.

I ended on the Wii Shop because I didn't notice the mention of the 24th here.

This is great! I need to buy some Wii Points now.

First demos and now a sale? It's like Nintendo is trying to be competitive or something

I'll need to go check my PS2 Sega Genesis Collection with 28 games on it that I bought for $12 new at Toys R Us (<50c a game) to see what I'm missing, and then read the reviews here see if anything is worth $5, but I think I'll buy at least 1 just to help the sales number (and my kids will have 500 points left after buying Pokemon rumble).

Demos and sales. Will wonders never cease.

Sweet! I can finally pick up Shining Force later on during the holidays. Nintendo and Hudson need to do the same thing for N64 and Turbo-Graphx 16 games, respectively.

I loved the second Shining Force game, so I might buy the first one. The other games I'm not too interested in, except maybe Gunstar Heroes.

I feel my mind dissolving around...

Has anyone been able to confirm the existence of this promotion outside America?
