Just like with PART 1 + PART 2 + PART 3, this 4th collection of 10 (more) games to add to your hacked Sega Mini does not attempt to claim that these are the best games you can get on the NES/SEGA/SNES systems. Instead, these are the games that, to me, still feel the most appealing to actually spend time playing in 2020, especially given all the other ways one can distract themselves in the modern world (ps - if you’re wondering what a Sega Mini is and how you can hack it to add any NES/SEGA/SNES game you want, I wrote a blog post about how I hacked mine over here).

So, with that in mind, here’s my fourth list of 10 games that I think are definitely worth adding to your hacked Sega Mini… if you happen to also be spending some of this quarantine in a similar retro video game rabbit hole & have similar elder millennial tastes as me:

Ok, that’s it for another list of 10 games that I would recommend making sure you add to your hacked Sega Mini… if you’re an old millennial with similar gaming tastes as me (ie. these are the lists that I wish I stumbled upon when I was searching the internet for tips on which games to add to my Mini).

If you want more than 10 recommendations, you can check out PART 1 and PART 2 and PART 3, and then I will be back with the fifth and final part later this week (so by the end of all my list making I’ll have 50 recommended retro video games in total — 20 Sega, 20 Super Nintendo, and 10 Nintendo).

But, until then, feel free to holler at me with whichever NES/SEGA/SNES games you think I should definitely have added to my hacked Sega Mini collection—I mean, I’ve kinda got my Top 50 figured out, but one of my favourite parts is the first few minutes of testing out a new title to decide whether its a game that’s worth spending any more time with / making room for in my hacked Mini library + you can get way more than 50 games on a hacked Mini, so I’ve got plenty of room for a nice ‘overflow’ section outside my Top 50 + the original 42 games that come pre-installed on the Sega Mini.

* For legal reasons, I suppose I should add that this post is entirely a work of fiction and I would never actually hack my Sega Mini with games I did not acquire in whatever the proper legal manner is for acquiring old 90s games in 2020 — in fact I would never even hack my Sega Mini, period, because hacking is bad, kids. "Follow the rules and always do things the way you were told to do them" — that's my motto. SEGA! (also NES! and SNES!)
