Yesterday Sega Europe announced the SEGA Mega Drive Classics Hub for Steam. Basically it’s a fancy emulator shell that lets you play Mega Drive games in a virtual room. It has the standard features you might expect officially released emulated games to have like save states and visual filters. But outside of that, it’ll have one very interesting […]

Bomber Raid last Master System game to be released in Japan The final games released for any system are rarely worth writing home about – with top-notch developers moving on to more powerful machines as they become available, it’s rare to see a truly amazing send-off for any system. Still, it’s hard to imagine that […]

SSF Test Version (2016/03/26) is released. SSF is a Sega Saturn emulator for Windows systems using DirectX 9.0b.

Depending on who you ask, the name Shane Warne has very different connotations. To Americans, he’s probably best known as that fat old Australian guy who plays poker and bangs Elizabeth Hurley. To Australians, he’s the bestest bowler of all time in the history of cricket yes the best ever don’t you look over there […]
For my money, the NES Zapper is the pinnacle of light gun design. Light guns were hardly new – even Maganavox’s Odyssey had one – but the Zapper had the right combination of ergonomics and a steady trickle of software to use it on. Its popularity didn’t translate into the 16-bit era though. It felt […]
I very distinctly remember seeing the Super Nintendo version of Shadowrun in Nintendo Power when I was a kid and wanting to get my hands on a copy. I ended up not getting to do so until my senior year of high school. I played through it, and rather enjoyed the combination of gameplay, technology, […]
Capcom saw huge success in 1989 with Final Fight in the arcades, which is arguably most responsible for maintaining the scrolling “beat-em-up” genre’s relevance post Double Dragon. Their 1990 home port, exclusive to the SNES for reasons unclear, fell short of expectations. This gave Sega an opportunity which they gratefully took. “HAWWWWWW!!!” Streets of Rage […]
Despite being born and raised in Good Ol’ ‘Merikuh, I don’t actually know much about wrestling. Contrary to popular belief, U.S. households were not issued yearly VHS copies of Summer Slam in the mail back in the 90s.
