it's clear sega is spending more money on this than their compilations.
Isn't MUSHA a really expensive game? For a Genesis title at least
it is very expensive.

The licensing situation with Aladdin isn't entirely clear, mind you.It's not about being able or not, it's about the cost of the license. The Genesis Mini only makes money by selling the console, not by selling games. So paying a huge license (to two companies) might not be cost effective for something like this.
I've been beating that drum for a while. Tee has more than proven himself with the Mania soundtrack.Good thing about Sonic is that at least we'll be able to get M2 versions of 1 and 2 in a single machine once it gets hacked. 3&K complete would be really nice, but it seems very unlikely. If it's really just the music holding it back, they should really just rip the bandaid, call Tee Lopes and future proof it. Between Lopes' standing in the community due to the ludicrously good Mania soundtrack and the, uh, documentary situation, there's never been a better time for this to happen.

It could very well be that Disney owns it outright.
Yeah, the GBA release nixed both movie songs.Again, the license or getting the license is not a problem, it's the cost. Hopefully Sega is able to do it, but with the movie coming out I don't think the license will be cheap enough to be able to be included in this system. Re-releasing any Aladdin game right now, in Disney's eyes, is a game to tie-in the movie.
There's also a problem with the "Whole new world" song (is that included in the Genesis version?). That's a different license, so they would have to pay for it or remove that song from the game. The GBA version of Capcom's Aladdin had to remove that song when the game was re-released, and I think the Genie's song too?

MUSHA is not included in the Genesis list. I would gladly trade it for any of the Mickey or Earthworm Jim games.

You have to report the OP to get the thead title changed, right? I think it warrants updating, though I don't want to mislead anyone on the MUSHA thing.

Well hopefully you can in the future. Fire up those compatibility lists
Don't think it will happen. Unlike the NES/SNES Classic that have their own emus, I really doubt the Genesis Mini will have an emu that will work with other games if the console is hacked. I mean, I hope it does to avoid using Retroarch, but I doubt it.
