The Japanese publisher announced today that all first-run copies of the game will include decals celebrating SEGA’s rich history. That means you’ll want to either pre-order a copy of the game, or purchase it early if you want to add these stickers to your collection.

There are 9 silver stickers in total, and you can see them all in the promotional shot below:

The limited edition labels include logos for various SEGA home consoles including the Master System, Mega Drive, and Genesis. The latter two systems are even getting decals of the consoles themselves. Rounding out the retro stickers is the company’s logo, former mascot Professor Asobin (who appeared in SG-1000 game manuals), and a GigaDrive logo.

If you’re wondering what the GigaDrive is, it’s the architecture that allows for these Mega Drive games to run on the Nintendo 3DS. It was created specifically by developer M2, who used it to redevelop all seven of the games in the SEGA 3D Classics Collection. These titles, which all support stereoscopic 3D, include Power DriftPuyo Puyo 2Fantasy Zone II WSonic The HedgehogThunder Blade, Galaxy Force II, and Altered Beast.

The $29.99 collection was already a great value when you consider that individual SEGA 3D Classics retail for $5.99 on the Nintendo eShop, and these exclusive stickers just add one more reason for SEGA fans to do so.

Making this deal even sweeter is that this will be the first time gamers can check out Puyo Puyo 2 and Power Drift on Nintendo’s handheld. On top of that, the Mega System versions of Fantasy Zone II: The Tears of Opa-Opa and Maze Walker are included as a bonus.

The SEGA 3D Classics Collection will launch exclusively for Nintendo 3DS on April 26, 2016. The package will retail for $29.99.
