The "Mega Castlevania IV" #homebrew project by "Retro Reloaded" recently got an update. And the ambitious feat of porting the beloved #SNES classic to the #Sega Genesis is now one step closer to reality. You can grab the ROM here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PPO... #indie #gaming #retro #gamedev

Does this mean that Mega Cat Studios might be publishing Razing Core, NightVein, and Sword of the Apocalypse? I hope so!

Ninja Princess is an underrated title on the SG-1000. A port of the 1985 Sega coin-op hit, it does a faithful job of recreating that game on the hardware. If you like action, ninjas, and want a new title for your console, Ninja Princess is a great choice. www.sega-16.com/2025/11/ninj...

At the '94 AMOA Show, Data East's Joe Kamenkow stands with the infamous Tattoo Assassins, begun before DE sold its pinball division to Sega. Kaminkow stayed on the team to finish the game before switching over. Although it had a story penned by Back to the Future's Bob Gale, it was never released.

Can't say I'm surprised. Every con I go to is 70% these damn things. They're everywhere, but I don't see people buying them up. They just seem to sit there.

Currently 103 pages into the proofs, and creating indexes has to be the most tedious, boring thing ever. It'll will immensely helpful once the book is out, but damn do I hate doing them manually.

Why were there gender-balanced teams at Sega in the late 80s, and why was this never the case again afterwards? I also provide a chronology of the industry's pioneers in Japan, while addressing the issue of gender discrimination, before discussing working conditions more broadly in a later chapter.

That scene in RoboCop where Dick Jones comes out of the bathroom stall and grabs Bob Morton's hair without washing his hands.

IT'S OUT! The game is now available at CGS2025! If you have downloaded the game already before this post, please download v2.0.2 as it fixes some MAJOR issues we didn't notice before, sorry! #SonictheHedgehog #fangame #SaveTails hedgehogtechnicalinstitute.com/forum/viewto...

It's still quite relevant to me. Often, I'd rather read a FAQ than see a video because the level of commitment some of these folks had was insane. There's so much detail and nuance in many of them that a lot of video walkthroughs lack. Amazing that it's 30 years-old.

Badcomputer is back with another rock-solid Master System release that harkens back to the simple yet addictive Sega Card games of old. It's also as affordable as it is engaging, so there's no reason to not get it and platform like it's 1986. www.sega-16.com/2025/11/astr...

#History of #SEGA is out this month, folks! I really hope you can all check it out! @timeextension.com @sega-16.bsky.social @segadriven.bsky.social @thedreamcastjunkyard.co.uk @theretrohour.com @sonichedgeblog.bsky.social @ianflynnbkc.bsky.social #videogames #megadrive #mastersystrm #dreamcast

🆕️ @SEGAGuys video 🎞 The Best of Sega is back again, this time looking back on Donald Duck's Quackshot. Part Indiana Jones, Part Metroid, Part Disney Platformer, could it stand out on the Sega Mega Drive in a packed 1991? youtu.be/AsiidjQ659Y

A piece of #AlteredBeast artwork that I have no idea where it was used (probably on a magazine) or if it was used, nor the artist. Still, a really nice one! Usual upscale/clean/retouch process applied.

Carrier doesn’t stray far from its RE-based roots, but it does show signs of the genre finally stepping into the next generation with 3D environments and refining manual aiming and movement. A fun game with some next-gen touches that's often overlooked. www.sega-16.com/2025/10/carr...

You know what, Nigel? Writer’s block isn’t really a thing. The real “block” is trying to survive in a capitalist system, in which creativity has been devalued & publishing taken over by managerial types who only understand productivity & see writers as “brands.” www.theguardian.com/business/202...

MD Guru Pyron shows a test to implement 3 active layers on the MD using DKC! "We created the structure and assets in a way that allows two players on the screen at the same time, along with the enemies and the HUD. This enables the porting of the original game." www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGqG...

100% this. To all my friends in the Genesis dev. community, keep up your terrific work. I want to play ALL your games, even if they go no farther than the demo stage. Your effort, time, and love are not unappreciated! You are amazing, and we thank you for all you do!

I loved this game a lot, and it definitely deserves a remaster. The campaign was top notch.

Sometimes as a writer it is important to really test yourself - to take risks, to break out of your comfort zone and do something radically new. With this in mind, I have written a nostalgic article about a Sega game www.theguardian.com/games/2025/o...

Happy 40th birthday to the Sega Mark III! The console that would be redesigned as the Master System and then brought back into Japan and re-released with that design. Here in 1985, though, we have this cream slab promising real arcade action in the home and going toe-to-toe with the Famicom.
