Hatsune Miku concert is heading to America for the the first time. If you are a vocaloid fan, seems like you are in luck.
When: Saturday, September 18th. 3:00PM – 5:00PM
Where: J-POP Summit Festival 2010. San Francisco’s “Japantown” neighborhood. in the area’s “NEW PEOPLE store”.
I myself am not into this whole Hatsune Miku thing, also not into SEGA’s PSP games they released. I guess there is an audience for this thing.

I know what you are saying, another compilation of Genesis games, splattering the word classic to get me thinking about great games that powered my Genesis throughout the 16-bit wars.
After releasing a ton of stand alone titles on other digital services and disc based releases, SEGA tries to bring Genesis games to Steam. This is not the first time SEGA has brought Genesis games to PC.
Here are the first screens for Initial D Stage 6AA, SEGA’s video game adaptation of the Manga called Initial D.
The game, so far, is only coming out on Arcades and was shown off at the JAMMA show.

ESRB has rated Crazy Taxi for Mac, PC, PSN and Xbox Live Arcade. Issue is that it has not been announced for Mac and PC yet. The game was already released on PC back in 2002.
I assume it will be up on Steam for both Mac and PC. Good news for those that own a Mac, if you own a PC, buy it again.

SEGA will be streaming their press conferences via UStream, thus they have a schedule. You know, so you can call in sick at work to watch Nagoshi pimp out some Yakuza games. But that is not all, there are three press conferences that say ‘coming soon’.
One of those ‘coming soon’ confrences lands on September 16th and if you saw that Valkyria Chronicles 3 teaser last time, you will know it said “Not to be open till 9.16”.
My guess is that the three games will be Valkyria Chronicles 3, Red Entertainment’s newest project (Sakura Wars 6?) and Sakai’s PSO 10th anniversary project (PSO2?). Hit the jump for the Ustream schedule.
Sadly this limited edition has only been shown for the UK shop Zavvie. No collectors edition has been announced for the United States or Japan as of yet.
The limited edition comes at a price though, it will cost £54.95, the regular edition will only be costing £33.95, its almost double. So those who want the pretty box and the doll (don’t hate) will have to cough up some extra dough.

We already know the main players for Yakuza of the End, now lets have a look at the supporting cast and their voice actors.
SEGA showed off 6 supporting cast characters today, including some of the first in game models (as you can see above and more after the break). SEGA, like in Yakuza 4, is using 3D digitizing technology to scan voice actors, so they resemble the new characters they will play. Well, all did this besides one… we have another returning character from Yakuza 2…
Senile Team started off in 2003 with the creation of the freeware game Beats of Rage, a popular tribute to Streets of Rage. In addition to being an excellent game itself, its game engine has been used to recreate classic arcade games for Dreamcast such as Golden Axe and the Final Fight trilogy.
In 2009, the team made their commercial debut with Rush Rush Rally Racing. Today Roel Van Mastbergen sits down and talks with us about GamesCom and their upcoming game Age of the Beast.

A few beta testers for Kingdom Conquest have already submitted their ratings and they have been pretty positive. The game has two parts to it, one being a up town strategy game and the other being a 3-D dungeon crawler. When you go dungeon crawling with friends you will be able to find items to equip your army with and help you win more land.
“at first i thought this game will be like any other game, but i was wrong… the developer team is genius to ever create a game like this !” – dimaz91
I agree with dimaz91, when I heard about the game I thought it was going to be crap. But it seems that SEGA has got this down. Glad, more quality software for everyone. The game carries a 9+ rating for Fantasy Violence and Infrequent/Mild Realistic Violence.

(Product description after the break)
On September 9th, 1999 SEGA let loose its white dream machine upon the United States. This new console was called the Dreamcast and was advertised as a highly advance console. It even carried the slogan “It’s thinking”.
It has been 11 years since the day it hit store shelves in North America and we now see how it effected the games industry.
If you haven’t been in the loop, the Playstation 3 got jail broken with a USB device. After it was jail broken strange new articles started popping up. One said that jailbroken PS3’s could play PS2 games.
If that wasn’t great, a couple of guys have decided to port NullDC (Dreamcast emulator) to the Playstation 3. Apparently they got the bios running. No YouTube video or pictures have been posted, that is why its a rumor. Sadly the emulator does not play sound yet. To check out the code, hit the source site.

NG:Dev.Team ported the NEO-GEO game Last Hope back in 2007, game sold out. In 2009 they reprinted it with the subtitle Pink Bullets, where they listen to fan feedback and made the game easier.
Now that its the 11th anniversary of the Dreamcast, we have teamed up with DC Emulation and Dreamcast-Scene for this interview. NG:Dev.Team talks about their upcoming game for the console, Fast Striker.
SEGA has been teasing the new Yakuza game for awhile, now they have added a subtitle to the name. It is going to be called “Ryu ga Gotoku Of the End” or for us “Yakuza of the End“.
The name was let out of the bag by Famitsu, who had it written in their new Express Section of their magazine. The magazine only had the new logo, looking like a typical Yakuza logo should. Shocking part is that there is no numbers, we here have been saying it would be called Yakuza 5. SEGA should release the final logo today, since their site is set to update. It will be posted here. (UPDATE: Logo below)
