Name ALL the SEGA Characters on the Famitsu Cover
« on: May 03, 2011, 02:25:03 pm »
Consider this a forum game, but I also want to give it a try because I seriously want to know the names of all the SEGA characters on the Famitsu cover. What more, if we name them all, I just might make a featured article about it.

Way I figured would be best was to break out the magazine cover into sectors. So I drew a grid over Suzuki Yu's photo (will replace it if a scan comes along, or I scan my own copy). It's pretty simple. First, state the row and column and then name the characters within the square, also naming the game they appeared in. Some characters share two squares, so just go with whichever square they occupy the most or the one containing their head. No limit to how many you name. Every so often, I'll update this first post with the characters spotted.

I'll kick it off:

spoil sport.

A-ha! But now you have to draw up a corresponding graph to match up each character to their name.
