So are these individual steam tiles to launch the game? Or is this basically a poor mans emulator that launches in steam that then can play abunch of games?

That's a lotta games. I've played lots of those before but I might have to jump on that. I wonder what emulator does it use.
 
Amazing deal. For the cost of a... wait for less than a coffee you have a game collection that would have made you the bad ass of the playground in grade school.
 
If you want a bonus game, read the comments.

The game is to find people complaining about "www.steampowered.com" and laugh at them.

I have most if not all of these on Steam already. My question is if these are really just Roms can we just take them out of the SteamApps folder and use them in a different Genesis emulator other than the official Sega version on Steam?

yeah, it's pretty much always the case with downloadable games on Amazon. my favorite was a guy complaining that, a week after deleting Steam (which he believed he had somehow been tricked into downloading), his "system scans" were still picking up evidence of the program. LOL

The way they're packed, it'd be more trouble than it's worth. Better off just linking an emulator and setting up shortcuts to run roms directly.

There's a program that helps set it up specifically for Steam

Yes I have heard about this and I am tempted to try it out as I have quite a few games from my Wii collecton running on Dolphin now.

But I have gone to a lot of trouble before setting up things on my computer. So if there is still a way to do it I might be willing to try it.

Yes, was finally able to snatch it this time. (I missed the previous offer)
Thanks op, you are a gentleman and a scholar.
 
I already own the 4th pack but own none of the others, here is my key for the 4th pack first come first serve

If you want the package that also includes the Sonic games, Mean Bean Machine and Toe Jam & Earl in addition to 4 classic packs; this is the pack you want

http://www.amazon.com/SEGA-48-Game-M...ywords=sega+48

$4.88
Not bad, but this excludes the Pack #5, which has some of the best titles (Phantasy Star II-IV, Beyond Oasis, Wonder Boy in Monster World, Vectorman 2 etc.). I prefer the bundle in the OP, but yeah, if you want the Sonic games that's a good deal too.
