RIP Hideki Sato. Former Sega President (2001-2003) and father of Sega's consoles, including my favourite one, the Mega Drive, has passed at the age of 75. The legacy he leaves behind is immense and cherished. 💜

Beep21 has reported that Hideki Sato, the father of Sega hardware, passed away yesterday at age 71. We planned to publish this article later, but it seems more fitting now to honor Sato's commitment to Sega's quality and legacy. www.sega-16.com/2026/02/clas...

Only on the JP version, if you hold C+Start on the 2nd controller when the Sega logo appears, you'll see Mania stomp on a Super Famicom before the intro starts

David Rosen, who helped create Sega and changed the coin-op industry forever, has passed away. www.replaymag.com/segas-dave-r... An absolute titan in video game history. May he rest in peace.

One Of The Best Modern Sega Mega Drive / Genesis Shmups Is Getting Another Cartridge Release This Month.

We now have a trailer! The Bagman is a 16-bit #pixelart retro #horror game. A stealth point and click. Imagine if Day of the Tentacle met Alien Isolation, but with an 80s/90s slasher vibe and gratuitous gore. youtu.be/aIFD5wO0kDA Retweets are hugely appreciated.

A former Sega employee confirms that the idea of adapting Virtua Racing for the Mega Drive was born when the company heard about Starfox, with the aim of countering the latter - although the two titles were released 13 months apart. xcancel.com/motekin/stat...

So, this is interesting. I got some info from a team called "Supersega" claiming they're working on an FPGA machine that can play SC-3000, SG-1000, SMS, Gen & MD carts, as well as Saturn and DC discs. Supposed to open up fundraising this year. More details in thread.
