The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Compile defied hardware limitations to bless the SG-1000 with a great shooter. Gulkave has variety, presentation, and a robust power-up system to keep players engaged over its 30 stages. If you’re looking for a new shooter for Sega’s first console, look no further.
Despite its simple premise and short duration, Cannon Spike is a Dreamcast favorite. It combined frantic bullet action with large bosses to give players a quick burst of adrenaline. The high is a short one, but it’s definitely one worth pursuing, especially with a second player along.
The Genesis is the console that keeps on giving! Homebrew projects have kept it alive for years, and we’re about to get an amazing port of Irem’s R-Type. We went hands-on with the recently released demo to see how it’s coming along, and we weren’t disappointed!
Lots of games get released and are forgotten for one reason or another, often due to circumstances beyond their actual quality. We’ve compiled a short list of some games that deserve a sequel but never got one. It’s not too late to change that, publishers!
The Shining series debuted on the Saturn with a return to its dungeon crawling roots. Despite bearing some of the genre’s flaws, Shining the Holy Ark was a strong entry with great gameplay and presentation that set the stage for Shining Force’s revival.
