The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Pscd Games has launched a Kickstarter campaign for a new shooter in the tradition of Forgotten Worlds and Trouble Shooter, and it looks great! This should be another excellent addition to the Genesis library, and PscD has included a demo to win you over. Check it out and decide if you need yet another shmup for your console (hint: yes, you do!).
A cute new action puzzle game is coming to Genesis! Rocket Panda promises 60 levels of fun in a diverse set of environments, and it even has boss battles. Space Pants completed its successful Kickstarter and expects a release later this year. Check out our preview for more details and a link to the game’s demo.
While Saturn fans awaited Sonic’s debut, they were introduced to a new character that blended both 2D and 3D gameplay for a new type of platforming experience. It doesn’t always work, but Bug! has enough charm and depth to offer a fun time for those looking for another platformer for their Saturn.
The Sega Channel was short lived, but there were plans to bring it to other countries. The May 1994 issue of the French game magazine, Mega Force interviewed SOA’s VP of Programming and Sega Channel Program Director Michael Shorrock and Production Manager Ray MacFadden. They discussed the new Sega Channel and their expectations for its potential.
Sega complemented Columns on the Game Gear with 1991’s Slider, a cute little action puzzle title highly reminiscent of Adventures of Lolo or Zoom!. Tight gameplay and colorful visuals make this one a fun experience in short bursts, despite the lack of boss battles and sometimes frustrating level design.
