While super-unlikely, I'm still holding out hope for a "Sega Superstars VR". A collection of Sega-themed mini-games suited for VR gaming.

Because if I could add to such a compilation, I would include a segment with all the Master System 3-D games.

Super unlikely from SEGA but still's likely from third parties.
Space Channel 5 VR Kinda Funky News Flash! and Cosmic Smash sequel came to VR was thanks to the third party companies afterall.

Sonic mods are giving us the Chao game Sega won't make

Fans have lamented about the lack of Chao in Sonic x Shadow Generations, but all is not lost. In a mod released by Jaildiku on Sunday, players can now add an additional “Dry Lagoon Garden” location based on the treasure hunting stage from the main game.
The mod is filled with all sorts of adorable flourishes. It has rich, saturated textures, custom decorations like a boat and pool, many plants, and even hidden emerald shards. It uses the same buildings and flora that ornament the scenery in the Dry Lagoon level from the  ...

Shenmue Quiz Challenge (Homebrew) for SEGA Saturn is in The Work



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfEn1jCttG0

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN67fV6N1P8

Nai Adventure: *Shenmue Quiz Challenge* is a homebrew created to celebrate the 25th anniversary of *Shenmue*!
With a free release scheduled for Christmas, the game will be compatible with the Sega Saturn.

New features of the update:
Save and load function on internal memory and backup cartridge;
Expressions on Ryo when you get several questions wrong in a row;
Art gallery where you can buy Shenmue concept art using the score obtained in the game.

What's still to come:
Solve compatibility issues: some functions that run well on the emulator still have difficulties on the real console – my biggest challenge at the moment;
Add more questions to the quiz;
Optimize loading times

Ah I see.
Still, not all cinema's will have it straight away and with Christmas, I may only get to see it somewhen after Christmas.

I'm sure you're already guess how the story will go so you don't have to worry about spoiler.
Other than the spoiler of who's gonna show up in the post-end credit.

I suppose so. Only guy I know who could finger-snap while wearing a gauntlet.

He didn't have to do the finger-snap to use the gauntlet in the comic version.
Finger-snapping was added in the movie to give it a dramatic and memorable effect (and it worked).



But of course there's fan who wasn't satisfied and said that Thanos motivation should be to get Death's attention just like in the comic.
Actually no, he has multiple motivations to use infinity gauntlet in the comics and pleasing Death is just only one of them.
His motivation in the movie was still taken from comic eventhough the movie kinda did it better (removing its connection with Death).

Such trust and broship to allow another guy to cut your mane like that!

The shippers will be pleased.
