The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Lode Runner is one of the most widely-ported games of all time, and the SG-1000 version is among the best. Sega did an excellent job of making the game fit on its console and even included a neat level editing feature. If you’re looking for a cool rendition of Doug Smith’s classic title to play on console, then this might be one you try.
After much anticipation, Yuzo Koshiro’s shooter masterpiece is here! The Steam version arrived first, but it is the same version we’ll be getting in 2026. We couldn’t wait to get our hands on it, so we’ve been playing relentlessly, and we can confirm that it was well worth the wait. This is shooter heaven, so gear up and get ready to save the world once more!
The debut title from Neofid Studios checks a lot of boxes of what you’d expect from a quality aftermarket title, and though not perfect, it’s pretty darn close. Classic side-scrolling action with some light RPG seasoning makes for a game that every Genesis owner needs to have, and it shows just how far homebrew development has come.
Taito’s legendary Darius series already appeared on Genesis with the sequel, known as Sagaia outside Japan. The original game finally appeared in 2019 for the Mega Drive Mini, and it was based on a proof-of-concept by a homebrew developer. It’s now possible to play the first Darius on your Genesis, and it’s an incredible game well worth spending time with.
Mega Cat Studios has unleashed an amazing new shooter for the Genesis that offers as much replay value as it does white-knuckled action. ZPF is a game that fans of the genre are sure to love, and a few minor issues aren’t enough to keep it from blowing up your console with wonderful twitchy action and a rockin’ soundtrack.
