X68000

It looks like an AI generated remake.

Awful.

@Axelay71 was hoping for the Saturn sequel.

FYO, there are hundreds of great fan creations available for download to play through on actual hardware with just a RAM cart.

16:9 screen ratio is absolutely baffling considering there are many 4:3 displays available.

@JackGYarwood There are 4 mainline SFC Ganbare Goemon games and 1 spin-off puzzle title, not 3 and 2 as stated in the article.

Just love the decapattack!

There's more exciting games coming out for the Mega Drive than there is for the Switch 2!

@Futureshark I echo your sentiments completely. CC on the Amiga was such an amazing and deep game for it's time.

@phillai One of my favourites, but PS2 emulation works so well it may not be so beneficial to games like Gradius V.

How about a Saturn Decompiler so we can finally have Panzer Dragoon Saga looking tip top!

He’s basically created something Hitachi already made in the Navi Saturn, a portable system which could run off a 12v cigarette lighter socket which included an optional screen and Sat Nav GPS antennae.

I’ve owned two of these over the years and they are beautifully made, slim and more robust versions of the regular Saturn. They also have Karaoke functionality built in.

@Yaycandy a Nomad with a screen mod will cost considerably more than this device.

Have you checked Nomad prices in the last few years?

SEGA wouldn't have entered our radar if David Rosen never changed their business focus.

I was in his company albeit briefly at the Olympia Amusement Trades Exhibition around 35 years ago and he spoke passionately regarding SEGA's future direction, discussing synergy between the arcade and home divisions. He was a gent who spoke to small exhibitors such as myself with real enthusiasm for the industry.

He will remain the pioneer of the modern amusement forever.

@mjparker77 There was an Ages release of Power Drift for the SS back in 98. It’s almost perfect. Although not the modern platform you may be looking for 😢

Ps. These My Arcade devices are an abomination. Sega have a terrible track record of licensing their IP to some awful companies.

The main reason this well never work is the visible crease in the display. I have the latest Samsung Fold 7 and the crease is very noticeable.

These don't hold up too well once you've played Gaiden.

It deserves to be played by a larger audience.

I cannot wait for some followthrough action on the Jag next year.

@Hexapus unsure why you're directing this in my direction. Im more than aware of what each console offered. I stated a piece of factual info in reponse to the fanboy comment I picked up on.

@city952 unsure how you come to that conclusion. Sega always were first to market with new consoles and system add ons.

This is a seriously expensive game to purchase on Neo Geo platforms these days, so it is great to see this released elsewhere.

Another game to try if you like this is World Rally by the Italian dev Gaelco.

@SlangWon and only a couple of grand for the privilige!

It's an amazing one level slice of what could and should have been.

@1040STF those saturn tributes are more of an insult.

@urbanman2004 you can go over a decade further back with the Toshiba libtetto twin screen.

Nothing is original.........except for the original!

@Futureshark it comes from the desert and antheads. Amazing times.........if you had the 1 Meg upgrade!

Ps. Great call on carrier command, but don't forget about Mercenary and Damocles.

This lightgun shooter is awful, but that's not the point. Preservation is more important than the game itself.

The effort these guys put in is unbelievable.

@damo Definitely more Super Famicom than SNES to me 😀

@Bod2019 it'll comfortably run most ps3, Xbox 360, teknoparrot and saturn games. Unsure how that translates to pc gaming, but show be good enough........for now.

Excellent work, he really is a talented coder.

I wish the, 'sega guru' would find someone else to do his voiceovers. His voice is super annoying.

There aren’t many working Q’s left now, so this is a super super niche product.

@Mario1966 if you have a brand new unopened/Sealed Q, I’d give you 3k for it. DM me if you’re looking to sell.

Anybody remember when a new arcade game meant you’d be playing a game with graphics far beyond what was achievable at home?

Another facepalm moment from onexplayer.

When the SFC version was released in Japan I only managed to secure 24 copies and they sold back then at £100 each. I was making less profit on those than I would have on a game half the price due to the super high purchase cost.

I never understood what the Game Gear offered in the handheld marketplace.

If you wanted a budget system with good battery life and a great library of games it had to be the Game Boy.

The Atari lynx was your the best option for a modern handheld built from the ground up with arcade like sprite scaling.

The Pc Engine GT/Turbo Grafx was the full fat home console experience in the palm of your hand. It even had an amazing Street Fighter II port which looked fantastic on the small screen.

That leaves the Game Gear with it's old previous gen console tech, awful sound, rubbish battery life and limited game library.

Surely, this will be even better as a Tate arcade device. There's nothing else like this.

Can you skip the werehog levels? If so, now we have a game worth playing.

Agree with kingmike, if you're going to make games beyond what a stock system can play, its no longer a MD gamre. You may as well develop for a current low power system such as the raspberry pi.

Can we have a port of Bully next?

@Wu1f how were they discovered in the first place? What lead up to the pic above?

I’d love to take a couple, but would need to arrange a shipping contractor to collect.

It’s down. Plagiarising not one, but two current projects. I’m pleased decisive action was taken and it’s already forgotten.

What can you do nowadays with your custom FW PSP whilst online?

Emulation Vs FPGA argument aside, the 3D printed case is always a worry from a quality perspective.

This is the greatest gaming achievement I have ever accomplished," says Summoning Salt

This will be inscribed on his headstone.

Check cvg and edge around late 98 for the dc launch.

The good ol days!

@Damo I originally imported games and systems in 1987 from Japan as a distributor before opening an office in Kowloon HK called West Lake. I then opened a store and mail order business called Akihabara Games Central. I used to supply games to EMAP and Future Publishing in exchange for cheaper advertising slots. Something I stopped supplying when they were returned without their box or a very scratched CD!

I remember PC Engine supplies. They used to buy directly from Japan and later became Console Concepts. The guy was called Colin Dimond. I think he hailed from stoke.

I forgot that he received a suspended sentence. I thought he must have updated it whilst inside.

Who doesn’t play Nintendo?

@Damo I’ve just preordered a copy, thanks for the review.

I met Jaz and Eugene Lacey a couple of times whilst dropping off and collecting games I supplied EMAP for review for the PC Engine and the MD.

As an import games retailer and a fan of their publications, It was a real treat to see them in their work environment. It was just as I expected it to be. Chaotic, messy, empty pizza boxes strewn around the office but above all else a great atmosphere with many like minded individuals who obviously worked well together.

Pleased I didn’t have to sell my gran in order to get a copy of the book.

The forerunner was called Geograph Seal on the X68000. A far superior game. However, Jumping Flash 2 on the PSX offers a great time all round.

If you ever get the chance, play Xanac X Xanac Neo on the PSX. It's an absolute blast 🙌

Unless it has a steering wheel, what is the point?

Outrunners will be incredibly twitchy without analogue control.

@-wc- I was thinking 16:10 but flipped a coin and went for 9. I reckon you're right though.

My favourite modern display for retro games has to br the iPad pro 12.9" 4:3 display.
