The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Often called Japan’s Mickey Mouse, Doraemon is an icon of Japanese pop culture that has endured since the late 1970s. He’s made the rounds on just about every console imaginable but unfortunately had one appearance on the Genesis. That’s a shame too, as Doraemon vs. The Dream Thief and the Seven Gozansu is a wonderful, quirky little platformer that most American gamers sadly missed out on.
Star Trek has been a television staple for more than three decades, and its run in gaming is almost as impressive. Echoes from the Past was Sega’s attempt at bringing the Next Generation to the Genesis, and while not a bad game per se, it definitely had its flaws.
Based on one of Disney’s most memorable films, Fantasia fails to capture any of its magic. The poor controls, vague objectives, and repetitive gameplay make this one of Mickey’s poorer adventures. It’s best to leave this one and just watch the movie. You’ll enjoy it more.
The 32X got little love during its short and painful life, and if it received a port, then you knew it was officially ported to every console under the Sun at the time. NBA Jam Tournament Edition was a game that saw the rounds on machines of all types and power, from the Genesis to the Jaguar. We have a full review of the 32X version for you, so take a gander at the only B-ball game available for your little mushroom.
Electronic Arts’ Mutant League series has a huge following, and all are still hoping for another sequel. The only two games ever released were both on the Genesis, and we’ve a review of Mutant League Hockey, which many contend (including series creator Michael Mendheim) to be the weaker of the two. Still, it’s an interesting take on the game, and you have to admit that video game hockey has never been so much fun!
