The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Sequels are supposed to improve on their predecessors, but sometimes developers decide to experiment. This can lead to changes that weren’t needed, and what could have been a great game becomes another example of lost potential. The TNN series fell victim to this, and instead of wrangling a prize catch, it goes home with an empty bucket.
Brave Battle Saga: Legend of the Magic Warrior may borrow assets from other games, but it puts them to spectacular use. Part hack and part homebrew, it combines new and old elements to create a fun and engaging RPG that has finally been translated into English. Fans of the genre owe it to themselves to give this one a try.
The popular kids show chugs its way onto the Genesis, and it’s definitely a title made specifically for its demographic. Adults might not find a lot to spend time with here, and honestly, their kids won’t find much to do after spending some time with it. Short and simple, Thomas just runs out of steam too quickly.
Fishing is a relaxing activity, and doing it from the comfort of your couch is about as relaxing as it can get! Vic Tokai actually produced a fun home version of the sport, and its worth checking out, even if you haven’t traditionally been a fan.
The Shining games are some of Sega’s most beloved franchises, and there have been many great releases. The Game Gear was a big part of this, with an excellent entry in the classic Shining Force series. Everything that made fans fall in love with these engrossing strategy/RPGs on the Genesis has made the transition intact. This is definitely one to play.
