This pair of interviews with Simon Phipps and Guy Miller about Shadowman appeared in the Spanish Revista Oficial Dreamcast and DC Magazine in 2000. They discuss how the DC port compared to the others and provide some background about the game’s conception.
Koei’s excellent war simulation releases extended beyond ancient Japan and into the 20th century, spawning a franchise that lasted several console generations. P.T.O.’s robust and fun military management gave players the chance to play as either Axis or Allies and determine the fate of the world.
For decades, Eduardo Morales Hermo was synonymous with coin-ops in Spain, especially with Sega. As the head of Sega S.A., or “Segasa,” he helped bring arcade video games to all corners of Europe. Recently, he shared his experiences with us in an exclusive interview.
Irem’s brawling hit came home to the Master System without much of a downgrade, and it even supported the console’s neat FM sound feature. An addition well worth tracking down and adding to any library, Vigilante remains a great example of how Sega’s 8-bit machine could deliver arcade hits.

Video game tournaments are nothing new, and Sega has been holding them since the 1970s. One of its first big competitions included the hit game Head-On, where Japanese players competed for prizes. The event helped show the popularity of video games worldwide.
