Khinsider Has Removed 500+ Albums Related to Sega



Quote
"Segapocalypse!
Wave Master, the company that manages Sega's music, has contacted me and asked me to remove lots of albums related to Sega.
At the end of the day, over 500 albums were removed, including Sonic, OutRun, and others.
Unfortunately, this even included fan made compilation albums for games that have no commercial releases, which, quite frankly, makes absolutely no sense.
If you were wondering why some albums have disappeared on the site, this is why."

Even if it's in youtube, if it doesn't have english subtitles I'll get sleepy watching it after 5 minutes.



But I'll never get sleepy if I watched it live, even if I don't know the language.

That cat has problems...

But yeah, it would be nice to see the stage production given I never got to see Golden Axe.

I remember seeing Alangkarn in Pattaya (Thailand) and Barong Dance in Bali (Indonesia).



They were not using English (using Siamese and Balinese instead), and I didn't understand what they were talking at all, but I really loved watching those shows live.
I'm not interested seeing them in youtube at all, the 'magic's kinda gone when it's recorded.

True, but I can't exactly globe trot to see exotic shows though. Through the internet is my only best bet. It's how I got to watch Puyo Puyo the stage play and A Very Potter Musical.

Cotton Guardian Force Saturn Tribute on Nintendo Switch features fully working SEGA Saturn emulator



Quote
City Connection just recently released Cotton Guardian Force Saturn Tribute that compiled Cotton 2, Cotton Boomerang and Guardian Force on a single cartridge.
The game was, well, not well received due to the emulation being used having input lag, making the games hard to play.
The story would have ended there but, GBATemp user Iisreal2301 figured out a way to load his own SEGA Saturn images onto the game file, basically allowing you to boot up any SEGA Saturn game by tricking the system into thinking its loading a Cotton game!

The Cotton Tribute emulator appears to be SSF, which would certainly explain the excessive input lag.
It might also explain why Shima pulled its source code off GitHub several months ago.

Odd question... but do you know where I can find a 3D model of Segata Sanshiro? I know there's one in S&SASR but I dunno how to extract it and prefer a more spruced up model.

Official or unofficial?

Unofficial all I could think is SSBU Sega Sanhiro Mod
But it's far from finished

https://gamebanana.com/mods/192467

Or figure of him, but no model to be found.



Or M.U.G.E.N and Sonic Robo Blast if it's 2D.





I don't know about official ones.
