Sega Astro City Mini

Happy new year guys!
Anyone got the new "mini console" from Sega?
I bought it and love it, the feeling is very nice and the unit is very sturdy.

The emulation though is not perfect, especially in audio department.
What do you think?

too bad they used Japan versions instead of World verions for majority of the roms.
A dual version like Genesis Mini would've been the best solution.

Like I said audio emulation is not perfet, and especially for Virtua Fighter is not very good.
It seems to share the same issues of MAME, probably because they used this as the base.

Maybe the remaining audio issues of Supermdoel should be addressed before Sega decide to make a new Astro City mini console based on Model 3 games lol
