Sonic CD Is Coming To XBLA? Nostalgia Bomb.

Sonic CD. The game that led to me crying and pleading with my parents that I totally oh my god oh my god oh my god  needed a Sega CD. It worked on me. It worked! A lot of people don’t like the game, but I recall enjoying it. Enjoying the delicious compact disc nature of its experience. Now it’s coming to XBLA. Fist-pumps? Yeah!

Joystiq:

Major Nelson, majordomo of all things Xbox, took to his blog this afternoon andposted a detailed list  of all the games and events that will be spread out across Microsoft’s five booths at this week’s  Penny Arcade Expo. It’s about what you’d expect;  Gears of War 3  Horde mode,  Forza 4,  Mass Effect 3, etc, until you get to the list of Booth 432’s XBLA titles. Right near the end, snuggled squarely between  Retro City Rampage  and  War of the Worlds, is an unannounced XBLA port of  Sonic CD.

We’ve reached out to Major Nelson and Sega for comment, but as of yet no additional confirmation has been provided by either party. We suspect they’re too enthralled by  Sonic CD’s masterful theme song  to even move, let alone respond to our e mails.

Update: A communique has hit our inbox from Sega PR: “We don’t have any details at this time, but we’ll be sharing some more information soon.”

I’m there.
