The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
People enjoy their Genesis all over the world, but right here in America there are some places where you can find some great games at decent prices. In a new feature series about Genesis gaming across the world, Sega-16 starts off right at home in the American Midwest. In our first installment of Genesis Around the World, we look at Slacker’s CDs & Games, which is a great place for the discerning retro gamer to find some great games.
Tsk, I’m so disappointed. This could have been a fusion of genres on a level not seen since The Guardian Legend, and it instead is only a step away from being a total train wreck. Revengers of Vengeance shows potential and promise in several areas, only to ruin it all through horrible execution. On the bright side, we now have a blueprint of how not to make a hybrid.
Late last month, Super Fighter Team began to ship Beggar Prince, to the delight of fans everywhere. The first commercially-released Genesis game released in almost a decade, it’s an exciting moment for the console’s otherwise quiet homebrew scene. As Sega-16 discussed last week, there hasn’t been much of a buzz when it comes to independent work on the console, but Beggar Prince might actually the catalyst to change all that. It’s success may be just the push needed to show that there truly is genuine interest in new titles and translations, and though it’s too early to tell, we may just yet be able to partake in the indy lovin’ that other retro consoles currently enjoy. Possibility or pipe dream? Our latest editorial, Beggar Prince: Start of Something Good? examines this scenario and the chances of it actually happening, so read on Sega fans…
Reader Roundtable has become one of our most popular features. Each month, Sega-16 fans get together and talk about their favorite Genesis/Sega CD/32X games, and it’s interesting to see the sheer diversity of what’s in people’s consoles at the moment. This month is no different, as we have a nice mix of different genres for all three systems. Read volume seven for more info!
Taito has given many consoles a taste of its Darius franchise, and the Genesis was no exception. Though the name of the second game was changed to Sagaia, everything else is pure Darius fun. Our full report tells all, and you know you just can’t get enough of those massive space fish!
