Bill Kunkel is widely considered by most to be the father of video game journalism, and his work on the classic magazine Electronic Games will forever be remembered. He also was the Game Doctor in Sega Visions and wrote the Niles Nemo comic strip that ran there for six issues.

Reader Roundtable Vol. 03
February’s here! Time for flowers, hearts, candy, and another installment of Reader Roundtable! See what your fellow Sega-16 readers are playing and maybe find some gems you didn’t know about (or some stinkers you should avoid).

Final Fight is a bona fide classic, no doubt. Capcom’s brought it home several time, and each port has been…lacking in certain areas. Both Genesis and SNES fans enjoyed versions during the 16-bit era, and Sega-16 has played both extensively to see how they compare. Have a gander at the latest installment of Side by Side for the results.

Volume three has the Genesis legend VectorMan going toe-to-toe with the electric hero Pulseman. Check it out to see who had the edge.
