I was hoping for some new revelations about what would be added or modified with the delay, so I was a bit disappointed that it was more of what we already knew.  Still, neat to see each of the racers' vehicles from various angles.

SEGA leaves Japanese arcade management business

SEGA has basically, mostly, sold off its Arcade arcade business to GENDA, a company founded in 2018 to operate arcade rentals, online crane games.
I know its mostly a Japanese thing, but SEGA’s arcade business has been part of its history almost since the start and having them sell off 85% of the shares on the companies 60th Anniversary is a bit bitter.

How SEGA Adapts to Covid-19 Pandemic

(https://media.giphy.com/media/sMvYXLh8fFbCU/giphy.gif)

Quote
I think SEGA pulling 85% out of a business like Amusement Centers is a good thing, while they profited for awhile, that profit had been up and down. Never stable and it continued to shrink.
SEGA pushing more developers and workers into making software titles, especially since they are on the rise in sales and due to COVID-19 a lot more people are playing video games at home; it makes sense to adapt.

Daytona Championship USA
The Wonderful Sunshine State Simulator


(http://segabits.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/source.gif)

Quote
The game features six tracks, all of which are either copies or variations of tracks from previous games.
What I mean by variation, is that all of the three original tracks are mirrored with a different setting, such as the normal track having a sunset theme instead of during the day.
While it does feel like a cheap way to not include any new tracks, the graphics compensate for this.

SEGA 60th Anniversary Special Presentation:
Interview with Toshihiro Nagoshi (SEGA CCO)

Quote
Back then, you could work overtime as long as you wanted.
Looking back on it now, there were definitely some pros and cons.
However, for people like me who want to spend all their time doing creative things, I think it was time well spent. There I learned how games are made by working on various titles, and when I had the chance to make one myself, I lost myself in making Daytona USA.

SEGA Talk Podcast: OutRun (1986)

(http://segabits.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/outrun2.png)(http://segabits.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Outrun1.png)

Quote
Outrun is one of the early games in racing that tried to simulate driving a car by adding the feeling of horsepower, torque, tire traction, and of course drifting.
The game’s main car was a Ferrari Testarossa which wasn’t actually officially licensed by SEGA, thus they had to go to court multiple times after the game was released.

SEGA 60th Anniversary Special Interview
with SEGA Sound Team Composer Hiro


(https://segaretro.org/images/b/b2/GoSegaIconPresentCampaign_140.png)

Quote
Originally Outrun was made with the idea of driving around a course on the west coast of the US, so the music was themed around music that would come out of the speakers of the car, with there being three songs from three different genres.
I was told to make the first song rock and the second song fusion, and to do whatever I wanted for the third song, so I chose Latin music.
That song ended up being Magical Sound Shower, which was 1000% influenced by Naoya Matsuoka’s work.

SEGA Tunes: Outrun 2019’s Victorious and Feel the Beat

Quote
This is the sort of soundtrack you want to listen to when your cruising down a road at 500 miles per hour!
2019 is one of the better examples of Genesis music I’ve heard, but I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised.
Outrun has a heck of a legacy when it comes to video game music, especially since the original game probably has one of the best SEGA arcade soundtracks out there.

Introduce Your Kids to SEGA Racing & Driving Games with "Hot Racers "

(https://i.ibb.co/p1xmkdY/Hot-Racers-Arcade-from-Sega-Amusement.jpg)

Quote
Developed by Sega Amusements, Hot Racers is a fun, kid-friendly racing arcade title for 1-2 players.
The cabinet is designed to look like a cartoonish police car, sporting bold colors and a car-shaped control panel.
The next distinctive feature are the two, vertically mounted HD monitors.
This provides a display for each driver, the player on the left controlling a car, the player on the right controlling a motorcycle.
This different setup also means greater replay value, as kids will want to see how the other vehicle plays after finishing with the first!

For Yakuza: Like A Dragon, you can expect to find arcade units for Space Harrier, Fantasy Zone, OutRun, Super Hang-On, Virtua Fighter 2, and Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown.
Different arcade units within each arcade offer varying difficulties as well, so make sure you pick the right one.
Also, you will have to pay the in-game currency of yen to play, so you cannot actually play infinitely.

Here we go, Dreamcast-Talk user MegaVolt85 has blessed us with yet another (I feel like I’ve typed this way too much) Atomiswave arcade port, this time another obscure title: Faster than Speed, an arcade street racing game by Sammy USA from 2004.
Faster than Speed has ‘trick maneuvers’ and ‘Nitro boost’ to beat your opponents.

Happy 8th Anniversary Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed !!!

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed had compelling replay value, really tight gameplay and (of course) an excellent soundtrack of remixed songs.
I had a blast playing it, and I wasn't sure how the developers at Sumo Digital could surpass the quality of this game in a future installment.
I suppose Sega felt the same way, since the Sega All-Stars series has been on hiatus ever since.

Quote
In Japan, it’s definitely Virtua Racing. In addition to the sales numbers, I believe that everyone was able to see the technical capabilities of M2.
But in terms of the number of tweets, Fantasy Zone was actually more popular than Virtua Racing.
For overseas, it’s more diverse. However, in terms of sales, Sonic the Hedgehog was by far the biggest seller.
The second most popular title was OutRun – especially in Europe.

(http://segabits.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/20190705_054440.jpg)

Quote
8: This title was originally planned around the theme of classic cars, but Formula One racing was very popular internationally at the time, which shaped the end-product to revolve around F1 cars.

9: The game included various in-game background mechanics such as palm trees that dropped their fruit if players collided into them or gates that would open up detours if players went in reverse.

It will be interesting to see whether or not Taxi Chaos can truly capture the charm of the game that inspired it (Crazy Taxi).
Sega owns a patent on Crazy Taxi's core gameplay mechanic, so it seems that developer Team6 Studios would have had to receive a blessing from the company before making Taxi Chaos.

Believe it or not, but only Sega can put giant floating arrows in racing games.
The massive green pointer in hectic cab sim Crazy Taxi seemed like such a smart idea that the Dreamcast developer filed it as a patent.
This is more than likely the reason that you're stuck with GPS-style map screens in Grand Theft Auto, and the incredibly awkward indicator lights in PS2 crime sim The Getaway.

I figured OutRun was more of a "casual drive" game where the racing elements were second to driving. Which is why there is the flock of birds, mountain scenery, view of the oceaon or the occasional dragon that may show up.

Yes, you're right, the article said the basic concept was that of a driving game, and Yu Suzuki loves driving so much.
The allure here is the sensation of enjoying the beautiful scenery in such a way as to seem more like you’re just driving through it, as opposed to actually racing.

"(Katagiri) Yu Suzuki drove a Ferrari 348, a 355, then next he bought a Lamborghini Diablo 6.0.
He gave me a ride in one of his Ferraris, but I don’t think I got to ride in his Lamborghini.
He gave me a ride in a Jaguar or something too."

Limited Run Games releasing an English package version of the SEGA Astro City Mini

The Limited Run version of the SEGA Astro City Mini will only be limited to 3,500 units, which will probably make this version sought after in the collectors market compared to the regular Japanese version.
As far as I know, the SEGA Astro City Mini unit included inside the English packaging is exactly the same as the Japanese retail unit.

Put simply, it’s a more basic version of Sonic Drift where players raced against each other in the S1 Grand Prix mode via network connectivity on Sonic Cafe.
When you’re tired of being pitted against each other, players can also race against the best times on the network in a Time Attack mode.
High scores were uploaded to the Cafe for others players to see and race against.

I miss being a kid and talking to other kids about Midnight Club vs. Need For Speed (around 2003-2007 ish).

The two kids who lived nearby would laugh at me for playing Crazi Taxi while they had Grand Theft Auto games like III, Vice City, and San Andreas. I would have loved to own those back then, but my parents wouldn't let me until I was older.

Now that I'm an adult, none of my current friends play video games that much. I'm just the oddball who tries to brag about video game accomplishments that they don't care about. By they, I mean one. I only have one friend in real life.

But I don't miss the school life.
Have to do homeworks and study... urgh ... especially before the exams.
School was fun only because I met my friends there.
Learning something new in school was also enjoyable I guess, but all those exams made it stressful sometimes.

People come.. People go.
That's how life it is.
And there is nothing wrong with it.
I don't have any real life friends to play game with too now, other than my sons.

B.D. Joe - Daniel Kaluuya
Gina - Bella Thorne

Agree with Tom Holland now.
Also Terry Crews for B.D. Joe, but then again he's too old too for that now.

Happy 27 Years Anniversary for OutRunners (Sega Genesis) !

(https://segaretro.org/images/thumb/b/bc/OutRunners_MD_US_Art_Cover.jpg/398px-OutRunners_MD_US_Art_Cover.jpg)

Quote
OutRunners follows a similar format to OutRun, in which the player is tasked with driving across the world within a specified amount of time.
There are, however, twice as many areas as OutRun in OutRunners, as the world is divided into east and west (selectable after the first stage).
Whereas OutRun took place in Europe and Turbo OutRun North America, OutRunners spans the entire globe.

Sega closing iconic Tokyo arcade that’s been in business for almost 30 years

(https://sega.jp/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/210802_3_1.jpg)

Quote
On Monday, the Sega Ikebukuro GiGO arcade announced that it’ll be shutting down, bringing to an end nearly three decades of welcoming gamers, otaku, and fujoshi.
The eight-floor (including basement level) facility opened on July 21, 1993, the same year Sega released such technological marvels as Virtua Fighter, Star Wars Arcade, and Alien 3: The Gun, and with Daytona USA and Virtua Cop arriving in 1994, it must have seemed like the good times were going to last forever.

Happy 19 Years Anniversary for Sega GT 2002 !

(https://segaretro.org/images/b/b8/Segagt2002_title.png)

Quote
Sega GT 2002 features more than 125 current and classic high-performance vehicles that reflect the handling and performance specifications from their real-life counterparts.
Chronicle mode puts you behind the wheel of hot rods from the 60s, 70s, and 80s, while the Quick Battle mode lets you jump right into the action.
The true test, however, lies in Sega GT 2002 mode, in which you must win races and collect enough cash to buy new cars and upgrade the classics

Jiro already have a wife ..
.. and a son ... named Joe Musashi ...
that we would be familiar with more.

Still kinda wonder..
Why his son's outfit isn't as stylish as his father's.

From what the Shinobi wiki said (Yes, there is a Shinobi wiki) that Jiro Musashi was flunged into the future, where ZEEDs evil is law. Thus he wouldn't be around his proper time to make baby Joe.

Wow, guess every games have their own wiki now.
We still don't know whether Jiro Musashi will time travel again, but most likely not come back to his year 1200 timeline.
Who knows later he then went to '70 era and Joe Musashi was born several years later to be ninja in '90s.
Or Joe Musashi is the one who travels from future.
Or may be it's alternate reality, just like Cyber Shinobi.

If you want to talk wiki's, there is a Sega wiki. It's not as good as Sega Retro though but we're trying. I invision the Sega Wiki to be like a "hub" or sort to encourage more traffic to toher wiki's based on Sega franchises that really need the attention.

I guess. Doesn't look like they'll continue from the N3DS game anytime soom. Which is a pity because most mistake it as a bargain bin game. I think it should be rereleased for PC.

They shouldn't have named it just "Shinobi".
Some friends of mine thought it just a remake from past Shinobi game but in 3D.

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."

Previously, I only found out about all the plot details in the game when I played the game several times or passed levels from today. I am already a more skilled user of the game. I guess you can call me an old-school gamer. I know how much time you need to spend searching for information. Now I read reviews, study the subtleties of games, go to the wiki on games. In addition, on sites like 10roar.com (https://10roar.com), there are many reviews on gaming equipment. Modern hardware must be potent for modern games. Each game is released on an engine for 16GB of RAM.

Back then we don't have access to information as much as today.
That's why we kept playing the game that we already have and master it successfully.

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!

Just a few days ago, we mused on Twitter about how the promised Classic Sonic content announced back in June for Sonic Racing, the Apple Arcade version of Team Sonic Racing, was nowhere to be seen.
Either a SEGA HARDlight staffer saw our tweet and realized they needed to get to work OR (more likely) it just so happened to be that today was the day they planned to debut the new content.

RetroArch Brings Sega Genesis Emulation to Steam with 32X Support

Picodrive supports Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, Master System, Sega CD, and even 32X games. You can download the RetroArch Picodrive emulator here (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1227460/RetroArch__Picodrive/) on Steam.
There are two other RetroArch emulators on Steam via both the Genesis Plus GX multi-platform emulator and Final Burn Neo, however Picodrive goes a bit further by finally supporting 32X games.
Anyone that was using the play test version of their emulator should migrate over to the mainline Steam release (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1118310/RetroArch/).

- Unreleased Sega Mega Drive port of the arcade game by Atari Games. Port developed and published by Tengen.
- Was shown for the first time at the Winter CES of 1992, and then shown again at the Summer CES that same year.
- Cancelled for unknown reasons, however the game would appear on the SNES in late 1992 developed by another studio.
- Source code for this port was recently discovered, but possibly incomplete. This comes from an original EPROM cartridge.

So, why wasn't this reported at the time, you might ask? Well, Mielke wanted to, but it wasn't quite as easy as that.
"Amazingly, my source was going to let me run this story – or at least wasn't going to stop me – but I was not going to name my source, firstly because I protect my sources, and secondly, they wouldn't have been long for Acclaim if this was in any way connected with them.
Somehow, the managing editor of Gamespot, despite her journalistic credentials which she reminded me of fairly frequently, demanded to name my source or else she was going to kill this story.
Her argument was that without the source, this was basically an unsubstantiated rumour, which didn’t make any sense as they do this in sports and political reporting all the time.

Sega Reboots Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio to Chase Fortnite Riches

The new Crazy Taxi has already been in development for over a year and the Tokyo-based entertainment group aims to release it within two to three years, the people said, asking not to be named as the information is not yet public.
It was named alongside Jet Set Radio in Sega’s annual report a year ago on a list of intellectual property assets that Sega wanted to recapitalize by bringing them up to date.
Both new games are in the early stages of creation and could still be canceled, the people said.

Sega Arcade Gallery (GBA) - High-Score SRAM Hack

(https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61iRkVfNLTL._SX342_.jpg)

Quote
The Sega Arcade Gallery is a nice compilation of Super Scaler games for the GBA - Space Harrier, After Burner, OutRun, and Super Hang-On. The ports are decently made (except maybe After Burner) but have one huge drawback: they don’t save your high scores.
What’s the point of trying to top the leaderboard in Space Harrier if it resets every time the GBA powers off?

This patch aims to fix that. Now you can record your best times and routes in OutRun!
All four games should save automatically after putting in your initials on the high-score screen.
Also included are the ASM fragments used to implement this.

(By the way, it is possible to barrel roll in After Burner. Hold L and R while moving the D-pad from side to side.)

SEGA’s data analytics for mobile gaming now faster than Sonic

(https://i.ibb.co/pww5Hsb/Sega-Mobile-Games-2.png)

Quote
According to Masaki Takeuchi, Section Manager of Business & Data Analysis Section, Business Planning Department, Game Contents & Service Business Division at SEGA, mobile gaming analysts are now free from the routine work of preparing data reports and enable them to spend more time solving complex analytical challenges.
SEGA introduced Qlik’s solutions, including Qlik Sense, to bring in multiple data sources and automate the creation of routine reports.
With Qlik, analysts can independently collect, process, and analyze the required data. They are also able to incorporate data from external sources without writing complex algorithms.

Three games and two mobile games (but both of them are already closed the server).

Crazy Taxi Tycoon is the same game with Crazy Taxi Gazillionaire, they just changed the name.
It closed the server in 2020, while Crazy Taxi City Rush closed the server in 2021.

Sega Rally Championship 1995 - No VO Hack

This is an xdelta patch for the Playstation 2 port of Sega Rally Championship 1995 ISO file.
It removes all the annoying in-game voice lines from the Announcer/Co-pilot like ‘turn-left’, ‘long-medium-right-turn-maybe’, etc. and other lines related to crashing and driving the wrong way.
It leaves intact the initial 3, 2, 1, Go and the Checkpoint and Finish! lines.

Well.. The genre is different.

Treat is as a spin-off like Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood or Sonic Battle, which somehow has more detailed story than the main games.

Being a taxi driver can be thirsty work—especially if you’re a crazy cabbie with particularly eccentric driving techniques to get any passenger to their destination in record time!
Keep your head in the game and stay hydrated with the sleek Crazy Taxi mug.

Well.. The genre is different.
It's more like a management game than driving/racing game.
Treat is as a spin-off like Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood or Sonic Battle, which somehow has more detailed story than the main games.
Yeah but would you rather drive around like a adrenaline-high loony or... just manage a Taxi business?

Spinoff is a hit and miss since it's a different genre.
I prefer Persona 5 Striker (action RPG) than every main Persona games (Turn-based RPG).
While I don't like Sonic Spinball,
I love Sonic Battle more than Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 back then.
The gameplay suit my taste and the story's being told nicely.
Emerl's death hit hard more than E-102 Gamma.

I don't mind spinoffs had different genres.
Besides... there's always Crazy Taxi City Rush if we didn't like Crazy Taxi Tycoon.
(At least back then since both games were being delisted already)

I guess so. Regardless of matter of taste or not, at least it tries to be a smörgåsbord of flavour.

SEGA's Virtua Racing - Battle of the Home Ports!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdFuZ8j7ZMo

Quote
Virtua Racing was Sega's first foray into 3D graphics, following over a decade's worth of pseudo-3D offerings (starting with Turbo) with 2D sprites scaling in real time.
Almost everything in Virtua Racing is rendered with flat-shaded quadrilateral polygons, which means track designs are more complex than in prior Sega racers.
The physics model, however, is not dissimilar to earlier games such as Power Drift - it is impossible to destroy your car, and the only penalty for driving off-road is a significant speed decrease.

You know a bit back I asked if you regard the Shining series in comparison to the Fire Emblem series...

What game/series would you compare/counterpart to F-Zero? Or at least Captain Falcon.

So far, my guess is Power Drift (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Drift). While it's not sci-fi or cyberpunk racing game it's use of sprites almost on par with the NES Mode 7.

Funnily enough SEGA's counterpart to F-Zero are F-Zero themself.
F-Zero AX (arcade) and F-Zero GX (Gamecube) were developed by SEGA (Amusement Vision).

But if I had to choose from another franchise, I'll probably pick Outrun 2019.
The future theme of the game could always be explored more.
Too bad the game's just one time wonder like Ristar & Burning Rangers.

I did consider this game but I was unsure of it as a Sega game, but it can work with my collage. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess Phoenix (https://fzero.fandom.com/wiki/Phoenix) was one of Sega's characters. Purely speculation but pulling straws here.

Even though it was probably created by SEGA, in the end it's still on Nintendo franchises.
Same thing with Sonic derivative characters : Freedom Fighters, Scourge the Hedgehog, etc
They should've been belong to SEGA.

I know at least game/series that could be compared/counterparted to Pikmin.

(https://www.abload.de/img/untitled-1atrfr.gif)

In terms of characters, not gameplay.
It's Chuchu Rocket !!!
(there are only 4 games of them though, while Pikmin has 6).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWP3Yw6p6HI (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWP3Yw6p6HI)

At least Naka and Miyamoto think so....

Naka:
I was really jealous of Pikmin. I had wanted to make something like that someday.
Actually, I love Lemmings, and I wanted to make a game like that, updated in a more modern style.
But of course, the minute I think that, Miyamoto comes along and beats me to the punch again with Pikmin. (laughs)

Miyamoto: Well, you made ChuChu Rocket!, and that game had a lot of little characters moving all around.

SEGA Genesis Mini 2 will be in much shorter supply (around one-tenth) than original

Quote
My questions about Genesis Mini 2 shipments were forwarded to Sega of Japan's corporate office, which eventually confirmed that the new miniaturized console was a "Japan-only project" for the company.
"The Sega Genesis Mini 2 could only be produced in small numbers due to the global semiconductor shortage," reads a letter from the Sega president's office, so the company opted to produce a small Western batch of Genesis Mini 2s alongside its order of Mega Drive Mini 2s.
"The number of units for this project makes up around one-tenth of the total for the previous Genesis Mini," the letter states.

Take A Test Drive In This Promising OutRun Port For The Atari 8-Bits

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PthcHVsuOWU

Quote
Sure, it's not as colorful or as detailed as the ST version, but it still manages to hint toward the escapist fantasy that's at the heart of Yu Suzuki's original vision.
The graphics, for example, are fairly decent and the renditions of Splash Wave and Magical Sound Shower are surprisingly listenable given some of the audio restrictions.

Over Jump Rally is a fan-created homage to Sega Rally built in Unreal Engine 5

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtGDqk0NeXI

Quote
The Over Jump Rally demo is 13GB and available to download via MediaFire.
I gave it a try and had some difficulty with it, performance-wise, although it ran better once I tweaked a config file (which a readme text file explains how to do).
It is barebones, but still a lovely fan project.
The demo recreates the Forest stage, and here's a video with some side-by-side comparisons : ...

Because this is in such an early state, different terrains such as grass and water do not stop or slow down the player.
A small debug display of sorts also appears within the lower left corner of the screen, although its intended purpose is currently unknown.

What I fond peculiar about Wacky Races is that Dick Dastardly and Muttley started off in Wacky Races before getting their own spin-off cartoon and became more of a reoccurring villain in other series while the other racers never got such opportunities.

But then again, I feel the same way about the Ghoul school from Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School. Ghoul School had much more interesting characters and initial concept before Monster High.

Yes, Dick Dastardly and Muttley were really standing out and very memorable compared to other racers so that the others got forgotten.

Made me remember Rabbids that started from Rayman.
Back then there were many different kind of Rabbids in Rayman, some are creepy and some are frightening.
But now after they had their own series, there is only one kind of rabbids,
the dumb one, same rabbids with different clothes.

Kinda wish Dastardly were to win at least one or few races. I mean sure he cheats amd the whole "cheaters never prosper" thing but he could always have like, a redemption episode that ends with "I guess I don't need to cheat to win... but I like cheating anyway! Mwahahaha!"

He got something that's more worthy than winning a race.

Total makeover if it done wrong could be fatal and killed the franchise.
All because the company wanted the franchise to appeal to everyone (or just to some loud SJWs who don't even watch the series/play the games) and by doing so it removed the identity of the franchise.
Sad indeed.

Sad indeed.
In a way, I'm all for diversity, I'm for it. But if political correctness is put forth before the entertainment or story value of a product or TV show then I'm against it. It's why I am not a whovian anymore because Doctor Who went all woke when Jodie Whittaker and Chris Chubnall took over, though the wokeness was as early as David Tennant's years just not as in-your-face and still good stories.

But the thing is, I am white. I ID to the gender I was born with which makes me cisgendered and while I would regard my sexuality "flexible" I still prefer women over men. Because of that, it's easy for SJW to pull the "You don't like it because your white cisgendered racist homophobe" card. Or whenever someone says "Check your privileges", regardless if they're white or coloured, I can't help but feel the word "privilege" is becoming the white mans N-word.

So yeah, for political correctness trying to incorporate diversity (obviously for money than whenever or not they care), I can't help but feel that for "diversity" trying to be inclusive of a whole pallet of human colour and culture, I feel cisgendered white males don't have much of a place in that diversity unless they're gay or other.

At least, that's the whole impression I've been getting from the BBC from the last few years on media. I'm not a humanitarian or civil rights expert or know of all the politics around political correctness and woke movement.

Keep in mind I'm not at all denouncing that people of colour have more difficulty thriving in certain businesses dominated by white people, or that I of course have white privileges from white society. I'm not at all denouncing racist is still a thing in the world. If anything racism will probably be around for as long as humans come in a variety of culture.
It's just calling someone out for being white and making them feel bad about it, isn't that just as bad as calling our someone for being black and making them feel bad about it as well? Instead of making me feel bad for being white or for being a man, can't we just try to tackle the double-standards of our society first before big things like what's appropriate messages of diversity to teach out current and next generation?

Interesting on how it feels the word "privilege" is becoming the white mans N-word.
May be it is for some people since that's how they think they're doing the revnge.
Though I bet they're only loud on twitter or facebook.
They won't have the gut to say that when they met person to person.
As you saym racism will probably be around for as long as humans come in a variety of culture.
They're not gone by being restricted, they're just evolving into different forms.

At least that's how I feel on the matter. I admits it's a bit of an exaggeration but it feels like "Check your privileges" is a SJW phrase to put down the white man.
And I get it, as a white man I do have some social privileges while certain me of colour are labeled with stereotypes or their people have been through a lot of suffering and human injustice to get here because of white dominance. It's fair to remind someone when they get too big for their britches but if you're using the word "privilege" specifically to make a person feel bad for being white then is it just as bad as calling a black man the N-word to make them feel bad for being black? They were born black and embrace that as part of their identity just as I was born white. I can't just feel bad for being white and ask for a do-over.
May be it is for some people since that's how they think they're doing the revnge.
Though I bet they're only loud on twitter or facebook.
That's the thing, to me political corrective priorities and woke culture seems to be a degree turning the issues on their head than removing them entirely. I've notice this in particular with Doctor Who where to me the impression is if you are a white cisgendered straight male then you'll have a more difficult time in the BBCs "diversity".
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RKj7Ef25N0

Maybe somewhere along my ancestry, perhaps I have an ancestor who owned black slaves for all I know. That doesn't mean such racism runs in the family. Just because racism from white people was more severe in the past doesn't mean the decendants have to pay for their ancestors bigotry.Political Correctness should teach us how to be better people to other people and not make certain people the problem because their ancestors were the problem. You know what I mean?
What I'm saying is, instead of "revenge" or shifting bigotry from one group of people to another in regards they're "privileged" enough, how about we just don't hate anyone and treat everyone fairly?
They won't have the gut to say that when they met person to person.
As you saym racism will probably be around for as long as humans come in a variety of culture.
They're not gone by being restricted, they're just evolving into different forms.
Hatred is just a natural, human and to a degree a healthy thing. But Racism is a method of hatred so it will always be around to a degree. Heck, in South Africa there are slums specifically for white people. It is there that these white people are subjected to hate and racism from African. some holding black history against them, others just straight-up racist. These white people in South Africa are not at all privileged... but "political correctness" and "woke culture" doesn't want white people to be pitted, they're "privileged".

It's why I believe that while inclusive diversity should be encourage and I do respect it being in entertainment and media, I still think political correctness should tackle smaller issues first before trying to make us all "woke" with new vocabulary, more sexuality and gender-ID than there are pokémon and how we should all "think" or be canceled and shamed on the internet.

For example, "whitewashing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitewashing_(censorship))". It doesn't necessarily means the skin itself but back then it was a form of visual censorship and propaganda. These days when it comes to fictional characters of colour to "whitewash" them means to redesign them from their original coloured skin to be Caucasian. This is regarded as bad and racist.
But because caucasian characters are regarded white as a default thing, apparently "blackwashing" or "colourwashing" a Caucasian seems to get a pass at being OK.
I'm not saying colourwashing is a bad thing. Nick Fury from Marvel comics was originally a white guy in the comics. But Samuel L. Jackson is just perfect for the role.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxVVaTXr4FM
I identify Nick Fury more as a badass black guy than his original character because L. Jackson made it his role.Not only that but colourwashing also offers acting opportunities to actors who are likely deserving of the roles, just as Samuel L. Jackson!

But then you have this...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHdtsWn7sgE
Developed by Charlie Grandy, it feels more like a parody/message on political correctness than whenever he decided colouring the gang would be more fitting for their characters or not. Because of that long time Scooby fans are somewhat upset over Velma being black, in which the irony of this trailer has Velma complaining about her favourate fictional character going through the same thing and being as butt-hurt about it as well. I can't tell if this is a jab at the fans or a jab against woke culture, but given such repose is bound to happen means people will watch it because of colourwashed Scooby characters.

So you see, if political correctness can't decide if blackwashing should be as bad as whiteashing characters, a "double-standards", should it really be regarded important for media to teach our generations it's ideals?

Yes, I get what you mean. Jealousy doesn't give us a right to do bad things, let alone racism in any kind of form, to the person or group we are jealous with.

Hatred is easier to spread than peace.
Targetting people / group to hate (especially with cancel culture) sells more than asking for a peace.
Sometimes even governments did that.
I guess like it or not, racism being a method of hatred would always find a way in any form.

Same with the new live action of The Little Mermaid.

The movie hasn't even aired so I don't get why there are so much racist attacks (https://www.jaridatakhbarak.com/en/racist-attacks-on-halle-bailey-6524/) on Halle Bailey after Little Mermaid trailer.
I hate most of Disney live action movies based on their cartoon but I won't be as far as attacking the actors and actresses for it.
If I hate it I could always skip it and move on. It's not such a big deal.

Competing for the title of world’s wackiest racer! The cars are approaching the starting line.
First, is the Giga Mega Drive Turbo driven by Gorgeous George. Next is Barry the Nomad in the AV RCA Hookup Pickup Truck.
And they’re off… to a standing start. And why not, they’ve been chained to a post, by Dick Dastardly, who shifts into the wrong gear. And away they go… on the way-out Wacky Races!

Yeah. But with how the BBC portraits "diversity", even firing members of staff in order to make room for women and coloured people, it seems you can't have diversity without jealousy. At least that's what the BBC wants in order to push their shit.

That does bring up another matter... BBC and other corporations are only giving a damn about diversity for moneys sake. Merely a few years a go, lesbians in kids cartoons would of been scandalous. Now it's like every cartoon needs to have a token gay or other-gendered character. All of a sudden corporations care about Pride Month. It's because once they abandoned the taboos of this potential audience they could market from them. Could it be called progressive if it's fueled by greed? I dunno.

Well.. those cartoon and kids movies with LGBT content...
they're still being banned in my country if the moviemaker refused to cut out the scene.
Adult movies with LGBT content like The Eternals & Thor: Love and Thunder still got to keep the LGBT scene thought.
Different country, different treatment.
For example :

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FVOZJK8XsAILZ10?format=jpg&name=small)

The scene was initially cut out in the edit by Disney, however, it was reinstated by Disney and Pixar after an uproar from LGBTQ employees and supporters.
Even Disney is afraid to their own employees and they rather lose money in some countries.

I feel the same. I don't hate the live-action adaptations because of change or characters of skin colour, I just hate these live-actions adaptations in general. I wish they kept animating them like Princess and the Frog.

And what's with Jasmine became Sultan anyway in live action version..
It felt forced 'cause I don't remember the cartoon version is having story like that.

Likely they figured something new still needed to be added in in order to make it appealing to audience who already seen the old cartoons.
How about just making a new 2D animated movie Disney? If they hadn't fired half their staff after Princess and the Frog they probably could.

I don't mind if Sega makes their games, especially Sonic games, a bit PC as long as it's not for woke reasons. For example I can see Charmy Bee passing off as trans.

The BBC may be the biggest news site in the world but it couldn't match the speed of social media like Facebook and Twitter.

I don't mind if Sega makes their games, especially Sonic games, a bit PC as long as it's not for woke reasons. For example I can see Charmy Bee passing off as trans.

I don't think Sonic will go there soon but other franchises might.
New character that was added to Catherine Full Body, Rin, I think is the most famous one :

The live-action remakes seem to get negative attention though... which is still attention I guess.

Sometimes bad attention is better than no attention at all.

I dunno who Rin is, but if she wears the fact she is trans like she's constantly waving a huge trans pride flag for everyone to see then yeah, I'd find that annoying, that she's just "there" as a token trans character. But if she's of genuine importance to the plot and the fact she is trans is just simply part of her ID and not there just to specifically market to an audience then that's fine. I don't mind trans people, heck Rin looks adorable, I'd date her if it leads that way. And I don't think it's "gay" to fall for a trans or a "trap" given they're suppose to follow a specific gender that may romantically or sexually appeal to others.

Well, since Rin is indeed important to the plot and also *VERY HUGE SPOILER* : Rin is an angel
I guess it's still okay then.
SEGA is still on the right track.

Frankston Roller City, 1987.

In between sessions on the rink, skating to the Top Gun soundtrack, a month's worth of grass-mowing and car-washing earnings were being shovelled into the greatest computer game machine that society had ever seen. Sega Outrun!
A coast-to-coast race against the clock, with the pumping electro-synth soundtrack second only to your choice of wheels; a convertible Ferrari Testarossa. A car so exotic, it was thought to never officially exist ... except that it did.

Sega is back with a motorcycle racing game developed by Wahlap & IGS, this time a sequel to an obscurish game from about a decade ago.
This new take on it is quite different, focusing on over-the-top racing, stunts, and simulator features.

THE MOBILE GAME HAS PLAYERS BATTLING SEGA TO RESTORE A WORLD IT CORRUPTED.

Yoko Taro, who serves as the game’s creative director, said: “It’s a game that features Sega’s IP, so I thought Sega should be in the game, but I didn’t think Sega would want to see a game that portrayed it well, so I portrayed it negatively.
“It’s a world that imagines that if things were to go well for Sega but then got out of control, it could end up like this.”

Outrun-chan is a typical domineering and rich girl, but she has a hard-working and serious personality that you can't hate.

You may remember that a report from Bloomberg in April last year said that SEGA is investing in its extensive back catalogue of classic video games and are currently working on reboots for Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio.
These two SEGA games will apparently be the first of the reboots and they are scheduled to release in the next few years.
Fast forward to today and SEGA has sent out a new survey which is being distributed to specific fans and it mentions a number of older SEGA franchises which haven’t been touched in years and ...

404 Game RE:SET Gameplay Involves Purifying Sega Games

(https://www.sega.jp/files/co/topics/2023/03/230307_3_08.jpg)

Quote
A new interview from Sega shed a bit more light on the concepts and characters that animate 404 Game RE:SET gameplay.
The “Dark” side Cathode personalities emerged as a result of Sega’s actions, which is why Sega is portrayed as the antagonist faction of 404 Game RE:SET.
The members of the cast are initially “Cathodized” by Sega, and use their powers to adversely affect the world around them.
For example, Outrun Type: Cathode runs wild throughout the cities, taking joy in her speed heedless of the dangers she poses to innocents.

It may not have been as big as SegaWorld in London’s Trocadero, yet Southampton’s much-loved equivalent was around for a relatively long time.
Youngsters of the time would save up their precious pocket money or hard-earned newspaper delivery wages to pump shiny gold nuggets into cabinets with dazzling lights, numerous buttons and annoying sounds.
Driving games included the multiplayer fun of Daytona USA to the more solitary but equally as addictive Crazy Taxi.

Next Level Games, the talented team behind Luigi’s Mansion 2 and Luigi’s Mansion 3, is apparently working hard on a remaster of the classic GameCube F-Zero entry for the Nintendo Switch family of systems, F-Zero GX.
It has been a while since an F-Zero-based rumour has done the rounds online, though back in December 2022, leaker NateTheHate proclaimed that “F-Zero’s time will come in 2023.” As always, we will have to wait and see what actually transpires.

After that date, the Steam Client will no longer run on those versions of Windows.
In order to continue running Steam and any games or other products purchased through Steam, users will need to update to a more recent version of Windows.
This change is required as core features in Steam rely on an embedded version of Google Chrome, which no longer functions on older versions of Windows.
In addition, future versions of Steam will require Windows feature and security updates only present in Windows 10 and above.

The agreement Sega entered into with GE in September of 1992 couldn’t have been more obvious for the Japanese video game giant. Sega needed the hardware to accelerate its development of 3D arcade titles. Getting there alone would take too long, and GE had the tech.
For GE, however, deals like this presented a possible lifeline. The late 1980s had not been kind to the military-industrial complex, which had to contend with both a lack of conflict and a sweeping overhaul of the Department of Defense’s procurement process, ostensibly designed to increase competition and stamp out fraud.
It was the job of people like Bob Hichborn to find new clients for GE’s graphics products, which began with the Visual Docking Simulator built for NASA’s Apollo space program.

For the current fiscal year ending in March 2023, Sega plans the global simultaneous launch and multi-platform support for 12 new non-mobile games, which are expected to sell 12 million units (it's worth mentioning that the English version of the announcement includes a typo and reports 1.2 million units. The Japanese version has the correct figure).
According to the company, the conversion of its current IPs into global IPs is progressing and the growth strategy is moving to the next stage.
The core factors in that strategy going forward are treating its IP pool as a treasure island and reviving and scaling globally recognized IPs by reforming them to fit modern demand.
We also hear more about the acquisition of Rovio, which Sega hopes will change its mobile footprint from 12% overseas and 88% in Japan to 45% overseas and 55% in Japan.

Quote
This is a very simple and tiny IPS patch, all it does is correct the colors for McLaren to resemble the white/red paint job they used in the early 90s, in the SEGA Arcade version the white/red colors were correct, but the Genesis/Megadrive port got a yellow/red version of the car which this patch fixes.
The changes should be evident in all modes:
- Super Monaco GP
- World Championship
- Team / Rival browser
Williams/Millions will also get a little bit of white as the car livery had more more white and blue than yellow.
The rest of the ROM remains ...

Speaking to the Japanese publication Famitsu (translated by VGC), SEGA president Yukio Sugino stated that the "Sega Saturn is surprisingly high performance," admitting that "the difficulty of miniaturisation is also high."
Sugino added that it may take a while for a Sega Saturn Mini to hit store shelves, but he seems keen to collaborate with teams who know the hardware inside and out: "I’d like to think about it when we’re in a situation where we can openly develop it together with people who have always loved the Sega Saturn and Dreamcast."
That last quote is particularly eye-catching; if a Sega Saturn Mini is successfully developed, the publisher may ...

Not content with simply sitting and watching his favorite game go unloved, one dedicated Italian fan named Alessandro Schiassi has set out to make his own homage to the original Sega Rally.
"I might have experienced the arcade cabinet first, around 1996-7," Schiassi tells Time Extension.
"I clearly remember a bar in Milan having one and, of course, being blown away by its graphics and sound.
Sure, it was a different time, 2D games were still the majority, but Sega Model 2 graphics were beyond anything I'd seen before.
It was literally an aero-space engineering marvel! Also, as a kid, that was the closest you'd get to driving a car, with force feedback and all!"
Schiassi has called ...

SEGA Amusements presents you with a brand-new entertainment concept Drone Racing Genesis! A unique and thrilling racing experience for visitors at FEC’s and arcades. Drone racing is a rapidly growing sport and a worldwide phenomenon. Drone Racing Genesis captures this exhilarating spirit of drone racing and brings it to indoor entertainment locations for the very first time.

The gameplay is fun and exciting! With the casual and core player in mind, this game is easy to grasp. To get a place on the podium, players must race to the finish line while completing checkpoints and collecting those all-important ‘battery charge’ power ups to give their drone a super boost to zoom past their rivals.

The game takes place across four visually stunning race locations - from picture-perfect tropical ocean resorts to snow-covered mountains, intense volcanic caves in the wild nature park to the glistening lights in the bustling Metro City. Players also can choose from five distinctive drones with unique characteristics and sponsorship liveries. Drone Racing Genesis encourages players to keep coming back over and over to experience every racecourse, get a real feel for their favourite drone and ‘rule the skies’ while competing to make the leaderboard.

In 2021 Nintendo veteran Takaya Imamura, the artist who designed the characters and vehicles in F-Zero, said he believed the series wasn’t dead but was still “hard to bring back”. In a separate interview ...

Quote
Historical context is important. In his long-running Video Works series, game journalist and Limited Run Games media curator Jeremy Parish claims the Famicom's hardware scrolling capabilities put it ahead of the SG-1000. His statement isn't quite accurate, though. For the first 12 months on sale, not one Famicom game featured any scrolling of any kind – pause for a moment and consider that. The first examples were Hogan's Alley in June 1984, but that was simply between levels, and not player-controlled. The first player-controlled example was Lode Runner in July 1984, allowing free horizontal movement. So for the first 12 months, Sega actually had the advantage, with several of its launch line-up games and subsequent releases all featuring scrolling, meaning the SG-1000 did in fact outperform the Famicom – if not in colours, then in movement. This makes Yuji Naka's earlier statement true, at least for a time.
Naka himself also mentioned scrolling in his aforementioned interview: "I studied the technology of programming by trying new things, and by analysing what others had created. Programmers would compete within those limitations, and it was an era when technologies would advance every year. You can't get a real good kick out of the hardware nowadays, since it's capable of doing anything. That was the time when even making ...

Much of the build-up for Sonic Superstars has centered on Fang. In addition to that previously mentioned comic, Sega released an animated short last month that showed Fang, Trip, and Eggman exploring Northstar Island, where the game takes place.
Fang has often been depicted as a villain for hire, and Eggman is paying him to investigate this new location. In that quest, Fang can be seen piloting his vehicle, the Marvelous Queen. The vehicle played a role in ...

I'm thinking of different kind of vehicle.
Well, not horses (like in JRA colab), but may be a giant rideable puyo or such. The color changed each land/water/air mode.

For race course I'm more interested with Carthaginian Empire setting from Columns than Puyo Puyo setting.

At least a car themed on Carbuncle. Though if for Transformed it was a car that changes to land, air or water themed on three of the five puyo, I dunno which puyo would be chosen.

If Warner Bros. can rip-off Smash Bros. for Multi Versus, they'll probably rip-off Mario Kart eventually so I wouldn't be surprise if there will be race cars driving around Hogwarts at some point.

But I can imagine a Primp Town race course if done right.

"Like zoinks Scoob! This castle is full of magic and ghosts!"

Fred : "Don't worry, probably only humans pretending to be ghosts again for nefarious reasons."
Shaggy : "But they are flying!!!"


Dr. Eggman was already in the racing games.

In a way... yeah.

The game may have had Dr. Robotniks name in the title but Dr. Robotnik himself was the antagonist, not the protagonist. Therefore, given it's an imported game he would be the reskin of Satan, who Arle has beaten many times.

Who's the protagonist in Mean Bean Machine?
Is it us as player, Sonic, or may be ... another Robotnik?
Since Arle has Dark Arle, may be Robotnik has Light Robotnik?

What's with all these changes to the games?

Arle: Oh boy! We're going to be famous!
Sega: Let's put Dr. Robotnik on the cover.
Nintendo: Let's put Kirby on the cover.

I don't think it's going to happen for two reasons:
The only Sonic characters I can imagine as Fortnite characters would be Dr. Ivo "Jim Carrey" Robotnik (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Doctor_Robotnik_(Paramount)) or Sonic Man (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Sonic_Man).

If Sega really wanted to get on that Fortnite clout, they're better off with another franchise instead. Such as Goro Majima from Yakuza, Taro Yamada from Rent-A-Hero or any of the Sega Hard Girls.

I don't think it's going to happen for two reasons:
  • Sonic Team seem to want to avoid gun violence from Sonic games of late... despite the fact firearms are confirmed canon in Shadow's game and that Shadow would be likely candidate to get involved in Fortnite.
  • I notice all Fortnite models roughly use the same shape, or at least the same rig for it's characters. For example Morty would be too short to be a playable character in Fortnite while Mecha Morty (https://fortnite.fandom.com/wiki/Mecha_Morty) was likely design to fit the character rig as a means for Morty to be a playable character.
The only Sonic characters I can imagine as Fortnite characters would be Dr. Ivo "Jim Carrey" Robotnik (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Doctor_Robotnik_(Paramount)) or Sonic Man (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Sonic_Man).

If Sega really wanted to get on that Fortnite clout, they're better off with another franchise instead. Such as Goro Majima from Yakuza, Taro Yamada from Rent-A-Hero or any of the Sega Hard Girls.

Oh yeah, Fortnite colab with Yakuza is more likely. They already had colab with Rainbow Siege before.

Probably his involvement is as low as Joe Montana on his first Genesis game.
Joe Montana was the first voice & picture of Sega Genesis in US and that's really launched Sega Genesis in North America, not Sonic the Hedgehog back then.
Though he said he's very involved in the game but it's mostly in marketing and interviews, the developer said that they never got any input from him about the game itself.

Well, it's American football. I imagine it wasn't that different to other generic American football games at the time, but having Joe Montana's face and name on it helped it sell.

“IAAPA 2023 was truly an unforgettable event! A big thank you to all guests who visited us during the four-day show; it was a pleasure to see you all there! We are genuinely humbled by your positive feedback that Sega Amusements had the most impressive line-up of games at the show,” commented Paul Williams, CEO at SEGA Amusements.
Apex Rebels truly stole the spotlight as a showstopper. Players and operators were raving about it, calling it one of the slickest arcade racing games on the market, with gameplay that won them over instantly. This game is definitely a must-watch in 2024, as operators are already looking to make space for it in their arcades and FECs. Hyper Cross debuted alongside Apex Rebels, exciting operators with its innovative approach to motion games. The new snowmobile experience captivated players and operators alike. Another jewel that attracted large crowds was Zombies Ready Deady Go! Players are calling it the best derby-styled, fast-paced game they've ever played, while ...

PROTOTYPE software, may change for the final.
Here's the 3rd track that was available from SEGA's latest racing game, Apex Rebels. Developed by 3MindWave.
The game has some Daytona USA vibes to it, while also giving nods to some of their other racers of the 90s.
The 4th track was not available yet so perhaps those who visit EAG in January will get a chance to race that on

EXACTLY! I'm pretty sure most of the surrounding controversy around her is either from "so I've heard" rumours with not much basis to go by, so they go and pick on her because they think lots of people are doing, and they think those people are rightly-just when really it's all "so I've heard" that becomes actual bullying because of it.
Or the controversy is by people who just want to pull her down a few pegs, such as the "karens", the wokeists, or trolls.

From what I understand, J.K. Rowling said how transpeople, particle male-borns who ID as women, should not be given the full recognition and privileges as women. People thought she was being unfair towards transwomen, but her main concern was women who can be victimised by some perv in a dress entering the ladies room because they claim to be trans.
These wokeist go as far as boycotting Hogwarts Legacy, that buying it means you support terrible ideals.

I brought Hogwarts Legacy because it looks good and appeals to my nostalgia for the first PS1 Harry Potter game.

SEGA’s division 3 is the online division, which through interviews has been said to focus on the Super Game releases. Jet Set Radio’s staff was moved from division 4, the mobile division, to division 3. Division 3 has been confirmed through interviews to be focused on GaaS (Games as a Service) and currently handles Phantasy Star Online 2. This would mean that both titles are likely to be online and potentially online only, much like PSO2. They would also be high budget triple-A releases.
This would align with SEGA’s decision to send announcement postcards to Twitch streamers, who are more likely to give GaaS titles attention, rather than ...

True, I cna understand why arcade games need timers in order to assure circulation of customers, but not for when it's for home gaming. Such as Sega Bass Fishing which... other than the lack of big purple cat as a playable fisherman, carried over the timer for it's primary gameplay.

Narrowing down to just "arcade games" alone actually already makes a big big difference.

It removes :
67,821 games on Steam,
4,333 on GOG,
265 on the Ubisoft Store,
12,062 on Nintendo Switch,
974 on PlayStation 5,
5,366 on PlayStation 4,
... etc etc

So what game was it you remembered?

I've seen gameplay footage. You can still play with a number of lives, but they now have infinite lives mode.

  • Japanese game for the arcades
  • fighting game that utilizes magic
  • Female character, (was she protagonist?)

It's a fighting game like Guilty Gear, Virtua Fighter, or Street Fighter so everyone is protagonist, not just her. I remember her mostly because people usually's playing as her in my neighborhood arcade centers and that's kinda rare (fighting gamers back then in my arcade centers usually chose male characters).

Both cheerful and jiggly. Kinda like Sophia from Tohshinden.

Highly anticipated conversion of the classic arcade game Turbo Outrun makes its debut on the Commodore Plus/4!

Now this has been a very hard task to achieve, the author had to change, adjust, renounce, move and re-code from scratch tons of the features which decreed the success of the original for C64. All in all, this IS Turbo Outrun, but this IS NOT Turbo Outrun, but this IS it anyway!
There's a completely innovative way to manage with the turbo, there's no need to worry about great impacts or road bumps or adverse meteorology, but there's also a new logic for the opponents, a new scoring system and even a challenge for you to have your best score into the hall ...

The one that was showcased at TGA 2023 is said to have been the reboot. At least one of them is targeting a 2027 release, although Midori suggested that both possibly are. The insider also said that the reboot and the ...

"The studio has an R&D department that handles designing and programming games and a QA department in charge of quality control," Sega Sapporo studio boss Takaya Segawa said.
"Recruitment in R&D is progressing as expected, but for QA we received more applications than anticipated, so a second branch of Sapporo Studio opened in April 2023."
