@Hastor If this is the branding now they forgot to tell all the other companies releasing new MD games which are also off brand. Apart from Kai Magazine of course. π
Volition should never had to be put in such a position in the first place. At least their material is preserved but it still beggars belief this happened. π
@mhxx Yeah sure the hacking would be the hard part as the game is already in English so the hacking while still difficult it not as difficult as doing a complete translation is what I meant to say.

@JackGYarwood Here's hoping he or the companies clarify what they meant.
Re: After More Than 20 Years, Sonic Will No Longer Overlook One Of The UK's Busiest Roads
I remember going there for a haphazard games testing interview.
Here's hoping where they're moving is more central on a tube map.
Re: Metal Cancer Is A Promising New NES Shmup Where You Grab And Throw Enemies
@DCinFL I mean it could be interpreted as astrology. π€
Re: "Licensing Constraints" Mean Toaplan Shooters Collection Volume 2 Loses Twin Cobra
@Hastor That's right, the lack of Sega branding is what puts me off not helped by the lack of uniform branding on the unlicenced homebrew releases.

Re: New Inspector Gadget SNES ROM Hack Tweaks Hudson Soft's Cartoon Platformer
A shame they can't fix the sound quality. π€
Re: Someone Is Working On A 16-Color Port Of Doom For The Atari ST & STE
We just need a Master System and Mega Drive port. I think there's an Amiga fan port although I could be wrong.
Re: 'Aliens: The Video Games' Charts The Interactive History Of Everyone's Favourite Xenomorphs
I think there's a whole book to be written on Colonial Marines if we're honest. π
Re: The Making Of: Samba De Amigo, Sega's Rhythm Action Classic That Nintendo Fell In Love With
Samba de Amigo = Wii. Makes sense. π²
Re: "Licensing Constraints" Mean Toaplan Shooters Collection Volume 2 Loses Twin Cobra
The off branding isn't appealing me to buy it.
Re: Panic's Crank-Based Playdate Finally Has An Achievement System
Plenty of wrists are going to be in trouble now. π
Re: Sega's Altered Beast Gets A Free Fan-Made Remake
@smoreon Wow, this fan remake looks smoother than the Mega Drive version. That's cool. π
Re: Dark Seed's Japan-Exclusive Sega Saturn Port Is Finally Available In English, Thanks To Fans
@GhaleonUnlimited That much? Yikes.
Re: Wii Homebrew Community "Built On Lies And Copyright Infringement"
As long as the Homebrew Channel can still be installed and used I couldn't care less about their virtue signalling. π
Re: Sega's Altered Beast Gets A Free Fan-Made Remake
I wouldn't mind seeing a comparison the frame rate of this to the arcade to see if there's much difference. π€
Re: Dreamcast Ports Of GTA Classics Surpass The PS2 Originals Thanks To Mods

Re: Strong Museum Announces Huge Preservation Haul From Saint's Row Dev Volition
Volition should never had to be put in such a position in the first place. At least their material is preserved but it still beggars belief this happened. π
Re: Capcom's Legendary RPG 'Breath of Fire IV' Has Just Got A Surprise Release On GOG
@frogproject Yes it is. GOG is doing what it normally does with Windows games and putting a wrapper around it. It will be the same game from 2003.
Really would make sense to port the other titles but I think that's outside what GOG could do.
Re: This Explosive New Racer Hopes To Be The Next Great Successor To Micro Machines
Could be alright, would have to be really impressive to stand out from the crowd.
Re: Frontier Force Is A New Fixed Shoot 'Em Up For Your Sega Master System
Overall the graphics look lovely although the hero sprite could maybe be a bit bigger? π€
Re: Square, Capcom, Taito, & Sega Are All Making Promising Steps To Preserve Their Past
Sega still need to find out what IPs they actually own.
Re: Random: Keiji Inafune Believed "Arrogance" & Overconfidence Led To Mega Man Legends' Poor Sales

Re: 34 Years Ago, Nintendo Begged Fans Not To "Risk" Importing SNES Consoles From Japan
@GhaleonUnlimited Why am I copied into this?
Re: Dark Seed's Japan-Exclusive Sega Saturn Port Is Finally Available In English, Thanks To Fans
@GhaleonUnlimited @Chapu You realise this game exists in English right? π€
Re: Dark Seed's Japan-Exclusive Sega Saturn Port Is Finally Available In English, Thanks To Fans
I would have thought this would be a simple thing of porting the text from the English computer version to this Saturn release. π€
Re: The Sega Classic OutRun Is Coming To The Big Screen, With Michael Bay Attached To Direct

Re: 34 Years Ago, Nintendo Begged Fans Not To "Risk" Importing SNES Consoles From Japan
@Sketcz NTSC had a lot of positives but PAL picture quality was better than NTSC.
