Interview: Fonzie Voltnov (Watermelon Games Programmer)

March 20, 2007 by Zebbe 1 comment

There have been some efforts over the last few years to finish up and release those few Sega CD titles that never made it to market, such as the ChuChu Rocket inspired Mighty Mighty Missile, and most recently Burning Fists: Force Striker. These two made their appearances on the Sega CD as commerical releases published by Good Deal Games and can be purchased from them, along with a few other Sega CD rarities. Sega-16 recently had the chance to talk to one of the people involved with these two games, as well as the great new Mega Cart by Tototek, Fonzie Voltnov. He shared his experiences on after-market products for the Genesis and Sega CD, as well as some upcoming projects.

Sega-16’s Genre Spotlight series is designed to examine every single Genesis/Sega CD/32X title available for a specific category, be it fighters, RPGs, or shmups. It’s a hard, time-consuming thing to do, but all other entries pale before this latest installment. Staff writer Patrick Wainwright has boldly gone where no one has gone before: full motion video games. Yes, Patrick dove head-first into perhaps the most controversial genre of them all, and his hard work has given us a great piece on all the FMV games released for the Sega CD/32X. Check out his awesome article Full Motion Madness for all the details. Welcome to the Next Level.

Hands-On: Sonic & the Secret Rings (Nintendo Wii)

March 13, 2007 by Tom Briggs 0 comments

Sega-16 follows each of the stars who made their debut on the Genesis, no matter where time and new technology may take them. No star in Sega’s line up is brighter than Sonic The Hedgehog, and the wiley little mammal has had more than his fair share of disappointments since making the transition to 3D. The good news is that Sonic & the Secret Rings on the Nintendo Wii may change all that.

Sega Gear: ToTotek Mega Cart

With all the accessories and peripherals available for the Genesis, you’d think you’d seen it all. Not true, my friend! The good people at Tototek have recently released the latest generation of their famous carts, and the new Mega Cart goes far beyond just playing flashed ROMs. Everything from saving CD game saves to playing imports can all be done with one handy cartridge.
