The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Gamers looking for a challenging and impressive action game need look no further than Sega’s Adventures of Batman & Robin. Awesome graphical effects and some great boss battles make this one a classic. Sega-16 recently chatted with Chris George, a former artist for Adventures developer Clockwork Tortoise, and he had quite a bit to say about his time at Sega and the creation of this memorable game.
Renovation took advantage of the massive storage capacity of CDs to port a few arcade laser disc games. One of the lesser-known (and weaker) of the bunch was Revenge of the Ninja.

Our latest installment of Genesis Power Battle finds Egon the Ghostbuster duking it out with Gordon the Alien Buster. Who will win?
Boxing has been referred to as the “sweet science,” but its history in video games has been more sweet and sour. From gems like Punch Out! and Fight Night to duds like Buster Douglas Knockout Boxing, there’s been a bit of everything over the years. Sega threw its hat in the ring several times during the Genesis era, and one of its better tries was Greatest Heavyweights, which pitted many of boxing’s most famous legends against each other.
Late in 1992, Sega took Accolade to court for releasing unlicensed software on the Genesis. The resulting court decision sent shock waves through the gaming industry, setting a precedent about the legality of reverse engineering. The practice didn’t start with the Accolade case, though, and there’s a rich history of how it played out legally before Sega’s case set the law in stone. Sega-16 examines the events leading up to the landmark Sega vs. Accolade case in our latest feature Genesis Firsts: Reverse Engineering.
