Summer vacation is over, and legions of sad children are now on their way back to school. Another mind-numbing semester lies ahead, with teachers robbing eight hours from every weekday that could otherwise be better spent on video games.

Sucks to be a kid, huh? The rest of us get to enjoy cheap iPhone games from Sega until September 1st, including a selection of Genesis classics like Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Shining Force, and Golden Axe.

Square Enix has released an iPad version of its iOS-exclusive role-playing game Chaos Rings, and has dropped the price of every other game in its App Store catalog to mark the occasion.

Chaos Rings for iPad ($15.99) supports the device’s 1024×768 HD resolution, and features richer graphics and more detailed textures than the previous release for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

FingerGaming’s Tucker Dean gave the iPhone version of Chaos Rings 4.5 out of 5 stars in his review, describing it as an experience that “delivers the classic gameplay of your favorite JRPGs in pocket form, and makes very few sacrifices in the process.”

To promote Chaos Rings’ iPad debut, Square Enix is holding a catalog-wide sale, making many of its most popular apps — including Song Summoner and Final Fantasy — a few dollars cheaper. During the two-week sale, the publisher’s accelerometer-controlled action title Sliding Heroes will be available as a free download.

A full list of sale prices follows:
