The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
February’s here, and the second batch of Genesis titles has arrived on the Wii Virtual Console. While not as large an offering as last month’s, there’s certainly a few games here worth mentioning. The question is: are they worth your hard earned cash? Read our second installment of Genesis Virtual Console and see!
With more than a million downloads on the Virtual Console, Nintendo is seeing a massive interest in classic titles. Sega has been taking advantage of this bonanza, already bringing Genesis games to Nintendo’s fledgling service and with plans to offer many more. So if there’s definitely an interest in its back catalogue, why limit itself to only Nintendo’s console? Could there be an advantage to Sega making its 16-bit games available on Xbox Live Arcade? Sega-16 takes a long, hard look at this possibility, and the answer is deeper than you’d think.
It’s that time again! Once a month, Segaphiles gather to tell us what they’re playing, and each installment usually features an interesting blend of fan favorites, lesser-known gems, imports, and even some duds. January is no different, and eleven of our staff and readers are ready to share their games! Read the latest entry in our popular Reader Roundtable feature and see what your fellow Genesis fans are playing!

The first installment of Creative Genesis looks at some of the great artwork that has appeared over the years, both official and fan-based. There’s also a bit of cosplay tossed in for good measure (you know you want to see this!).
