Not so long ago we reported that the next Sega 3D Classics retail collection to arrive in Japan would contain a mystery title which had been voted for by fans.
Sega has now released a trailer which shows that the game in question is Turbo Outrun, the 1989 sequel to original racing smash hit. The trailer also gives us a tease of what the boxart will look like.
In addition to this newly-announced game, the package will include Sonic the Hedgehog 2, After Burner II, Streets of Rage 2, Gunstar Heroes, and Super Hang On. Three other unannounced games are also to be included, and will be revealed at a later date. It hits Japan on December 22nd.
Hopefully we'll see the package in the west, along with this new game.

... with the ability to play the Japanese version when it arrives here!
I'm excited about it! And Turbo Out Run is the arcade version and not the genesis one (you can check it by yourself comparing the images of both versions: the speed gauge is at the bottom of the screen in the arcade version and on the top left in the genesis version)
@RainbowGazelle
Yeah! Streets of Rage 3 with the japanese versione! I'd also like Sonic 3 & Knuckles, just to complete the trilogy (and, btw, I'd also like Shinobi 2 and Shadow Dancer for genesis)
I'm surprised there's no Ristar as a Sega Classic...
Why can't Sega go back to making these type of games is beyond me. They were the kings of the arcade during the 80's and 90's.
Revenge of the Shinoobi ;~~
Virtua Fighter 3D
Still hoping for some sweet Sonic 3 & Knuckles/Sonic CD 3D action, though Bare Knuckle/Streets of Rage III wouldn't be too shabby either!
Now, another game I'd LOVE to see on the 3DS from Sega, is either Virtua Fighter, Virtua Racing or some sweet Genesis RPGs (Shining Force, Phantasy Star II/IV, Crusader of Centy or Landstalker... a man can dream!)
Streets of Rage 3! Although it might be too much for the 3DS to handle. Apparently SoR2 was almost too demanding.
@BensonUii When this one releases in December, they'll all be there on Japan's three collections.
Great to see Turbo Outrun. Been waiting for a good home version since I played it in an Aladdin's Castle back around 1991.
I just hope that they don't waste the last three slots on any Genesis conversions, especially of games that have been rereleased to death like their past Genesis selections have been.
These widescreen arcade conversions that even up the frame rate to 60 for those games like the original Outrun that ran at 30, are far more interesting.
And not just any arcade games. Leave these selections for the rarities, not something like arcade Golden Axe that has made multiple appearances in emulated form in recent years.
Well, if that isn't a nice package! Hope it comes west.
As someone mentioned, I would love to see a classic genesis rpg getting the 3D treatment. Phantasy Star or Shining or Thor. Also Sonic 3 but I think we'll get that one eventually.
I'd be surprised to not see Sonic 3&K in there.
I'd love to see Story of Thor/Beyond Oasis
I'll probably never see Soleil/Crusader of Centy
Woohoo!!! ππ¨ π΄ π΄ π΄
I've played Out Run so much I'm finishing the game (with highest traffic) so can't wait to get my teeth into this one.
Might have to find out if I can get my LL on to the eShop without updating and ruining my home-brew. π€
@ederenzi78 i hope this is the arcade version as the Megadrive version is crap and got canned back in the day and would be the first real turkey of a game for these 3D classics range from Sega.
Just give us vol 1-3 in a set already Sega!
Please come out in the U.S. I would love to play Turbo Outrun again
@BensonUii I also agree .. ooh do I agree
One day Sega will give me that Model 1, Model 2 and Model 3 compilation I've been dreaming about... who am I kidding? They'll probably just release a bunch of MegaDrive roms again...
Call me country bumpkin, but why have I never heard of Turbo Outrun?! (@samuelvictor) OR Outrunners?! Now I wantsies!!!
But what I'd love even more is a new Outrun game for current hardware.
@AlphaJaguar You and me buddy, you and me...
Can Nintendo hire/aquire/conquer M2 and make them in charge of the Virtual Console? I wouldn't mind spending $8 or 25 year old games nearly as much if their treatment were the norm.
I

NEVER

UP
HOPE

RISTAR
Turning blue from holding my breath for an Outrun playable on my Wii U . . . .
@bluedogrulez : Outrun VR on NX, baby!
sigh A man can dream.
I want Landstalker in the worst way on my 3DS... it's practically MADE for the 3DS! I want to find King Nole's treasure in 3D!
@sillygostly: i'll dream right there with you...and throw in Punch-Out!! (Arcade) for good measure!
Sunset Riders
Cannot wait. Slightly disappointed about Turbo Out Run in place of something more unique, but that game looks awesome, anyway.
Still hoping for Golden Axe and Bare Knuckle 3.
...Then they can get onto the 32-bit games!
@sillygostly Too much time at your local bar after harvest season, perhaps?
@XyVoX Just look at the trailer or the still screenshots. It's clearly the arcade original running in 16:9 and not the very watered down Megadrive conversion running in 4:3 like all 3D Classics Genesis releases do, with very sparse track side objects.
Please come to the US, PLEASE! You had me at Turbo Outrun! Retail cart, digital download, don't care, I Would Love Turbo Outrun!
Is it too much for me to ask that they release Turbo Outrun as a separate download? I own ALL the other games already.
@MakeMyBiscuit
Since there are three other new additions here besides Turbo Outrun that remain to even be revealed, that's impossible to own them all except Turbo Outrun.
@Andyv01 Sunset Riders is Konami NOT Sega.
Thunder Force 3 for the Sega Genesis is the next game on the collection.
Two remain to be announced.
@GoneFishin OK.
@MakeMyBiscuit
Thanks for the reply, I guess?
Totally agree With the rich back catalogue Sega have itβs beyond me as well. New versions or the originals such as Daytona, Sega rally, Virtua racing, Scud race, Outrun( really due a new one)π
