The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
The Genesis mech classic Target Earth is being resurrected by Dracue Software, a team well versed in the art of mech shooters. Slated for release on the Playstation 4 at the end of 2014, the game marks yet another attempt at continuing a Genesis series via crowd funding. Hopefully, this one will be more successful than the others. Read the Teaser for more info!
Super Fighter Team is returning to the Genesis in 2015 with two more localizations! Gamtec’s Taiwan-only vertical shooter Magic Girl and the unreleased Epyx puzzle game Cascade. With bug fixes, English translations and the full physical release treatment, these are two more potential additions to your Genesis library.
Sega-16 takes a comprehensive look behind the making of a true Genesis classic. We’ve spoken to a dozen people involved at Disney, Sega, and Virgin Games, including programmer David Perry and former Disney Software Producer Patrick Gilmore. We even spoke to people who worked on the film! This is the definitive story of how three major companies united to create a fan-favorite.
Sometimes, the most unlikely of games get a second lease on life. That truth applies more to Shaq-Fu than just about any other game of the 16-bit era, but sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

Namco’s early 16-bit efforts are a lot of fun, and Genesis owners everywhere should check them out. Among the batch is an underrated sports title that mixes American football with soccer (and a bit of wrestling). With its simple gameplay and frantic pace, fans of brutal sports games might want to give Powerball a spin.
