I know, I still have all the Mega Drive games on Steam... but still. Was hoping Master System and Sega Saturn games will have Steam releases eventually.

12 SEGA Master System games were playable in Lost Judgment!






1. Alex Kidd in Miracle World
2. Fantasy Zone
3. Penguin Land
4. Quartet
5. Enduro Racer
6. Woody Pop
7. Maze Hunter 3-D
8. Secret Command
9: Fantasy Zone II Opaopa's Tears
10: Alien Syndrome
11: SDI
12: Darius II

So we know that they can make the collection if they want it.
But may be they're taking time to make the collection's larger, also the licensing things.

SEGA has announced that virtual singer idol, Hatsune Miku, and the King of the Monsters, Godzilla, will be the next set of playable DLC characters for Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble. Players can smash the competition as Godzilla, with banana pickups replaced by trains, or groove through various stages as Miku, collecting musical notes instead of bananas. Along with the character DLC, a free 2.00 update will be available to enhance players’ experiences with Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble. The new features in free 2.00 update will include:

- NIJSANJI Outfit Set – For Virtual YouTuber fans, the outfit set will include a NIJISANJI UKIUKI Cup logo t-shirt, monkey ball with the NIJISANJI UKIUKI Cup logo emblazoned on it, and costume inspired by Saegusa Akina from NIJISANJI.
- Super Punchy Brawl – A new multiplayer game that will be added to Battle Mode as part of the 2.00 update. Here, players can send their opponents flying by knocking them off the map with a big boxing glove! Players can use panels scattered around the stage to buff their boxing gloves up to two times to make punches even stronger, increasing the amount of damage caused. They can also store damage from an opponent’s punch up to two times – the more damage stored, the easier it is to knock opponents away. The player with the most points at the end of the round wins! Furthermore, a new stage has been added to the existing Banana Hunt game.
- Time Attack will now include  ...

Sonic Speed Simulator - 🥷 Shadow Ninja + Kunoichi Rouge! 🥷

You'd think they would have some reference to the Shinobi series, given they're both Sega properties.

Or maybe Roblox could collaborate with other Roblox games for exclusives. For example when Big the Cat was released as an avatar, why not have Big playable in Fishing Simulator? Or given the ninja Sonic characters, why not have them as a playable avatar in Ninja-Legends?

It would certainly encourage me to play these other Roblox games if Big the Cat or Espio the Chameleon was playable in them.

SEGA said, "No worries if you already own a game or bundle.
These gems will still live in your Steam library.
You can download and play SEGA Classics games whenever you want, as long as you own them before December 6th."

The kids in Japan at least.
But these "SEGA Classics games bundle" was only released in western so Japanese gamers didn't lose anything too.

May be 10 years later when Sonic Team ran out of what's to remake/remaster we'll get Sonic x Shadow x Silver Generations
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GY5rnC5WcAAKQTF?format=jpg&name=small

Hm, maybe. I still think Shadow's game should have a remake and be the first installment of a series of spin-offs for other characters... but unlikely ever gonna happen.

Back then EA Sports 16-bit game series helped SEGA Genesis broke Nintendo's dominance in US though.

Yeah, but these days EA just cash-cows its franchises.

We've actually discussed that picture over on Sonic Wiki Zone. I surmised that it reuses this screenshot from Sonic Forces.

Kiryu alone could beat a lot of people by himself is already an exaggeration.
But sadly there are only few of those scenes so I don't think adding those burning aura kind of thing would necessary.
The series are mostly drama, dialogues, chase scene, and 1 on 1 unbalanced fighting.

I'll admit, I'm not that much of a fan of the Yakuza series in general. I still haven't finished Yakuza 0. But one thing I do like about the series is how zaney it gets at time. If this TV series has none of that, doesn't seem my cuppa tea.

Probably edited since many meme showed up where they insert the blank space in that pic.

It does look like a meme template.

I believe it's a monster doll / plush. Behind him there's also a monster toy with many eyes.

Maybe. I see teddy bears, but can't clearly see the other things. It's scenery like this I comb over for Sega references.

All I can do is wait until my local cinema airs it, which might be weeks after the release date. I dunno when the movie will be released in UK.

Knuckles and Like a Dragon: Yakuza have been nominated for The Game Award's Best Adaptation category! 🐉

Weren't both shows criticized for straying away from source materials?
