The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
During the 16-bit era, mascots were a dime a dozen. Unfortunately for many of them, attempting to recapture Sonic The Hedgehog’s massive success proved much harder than anticipated, and most fell by the wayside. A few did manage to survive into the next generation of consoles, and one such straggler was Bubsy, Accolade’s smart-mouthed bobcat. He didn’t get too far though.
Sega-16 recently sat for a spell with former Sega of America president Tom Kalinske, and the wealth of information he had to share was astounding. From the company’s internal rivalry to the missed chance Sega had with Sony to develop a joint console and everything in between, Mr. Kalinske shed new light on everything Sega! Want more info? Then check out our exclusive, in-depth interview and see how it all happened!
Our eleventh installment of Stories from the Book of Genesis has editor Nick Gibson illustrating just how the desire to beat a game can overcome even severely cold temperatures. Hardcore or masochist? You decide!
This week has been almost all lovin’ for Beggar Prince, and what would our coverage be without an edition of Reader Roundtable? Our staff and some of our readers who purchased the game share their thoughts about this great new RPG in volume eight, and hopefully this will be enough to convince you fence-sitters to get up and buy one of the remaining copies!
Now that Beggar Prince is in people’s homes, what’s next on the agenda for Super Fighter Team? Are they already working on another game? Might we yet see a release of ChuanPu’s Shining Force-esque strategy/RPG Fengshen Yingjiechuan? Sega-16 sat down for some Q&A with the man with the answers, Brandon Cobb.
