​To all you skeptics out there, I sympathize with you. Emulators on the iPhone have a history of getting the cane as soon as they take center stage in the App store. However you can allow yourself some excitement because this time around it's an official, full virtual console, slated for an early February release.

Dubbed the "Ultimate Genesis", it will come with Space Harrier II, with other games available for purchase through the App. Here's the line-up and pricing thus far:

  • Sonic the Hedgehog: $5.99
  • Golden Axe: $4.99
  • Ecco the Dolphin: $2.99
  • Shining Force: $2.99

According to Gizmodo the emulator is a little slow on non-3GS iPhones, but that won't stop me and my 3G from kicking the shit out of Death Adder come this February.

Oh, and if anyone from Sega is reading this, Road Rash please!
