Pigsy : "A big thanks to John Emery for producing the first new music track for our Alex Kidd in Shinobi World Mega Drive / Genesis remake. This one in particular really hits me in the nostalgia feels! Have a listen and let him know what you think!Apart from the music, I already have a couple of people doing some early graphical work on the game, just so that we can get started. Once we have the basic game structure in place, then it would be great for people following the tutorials to each chip in a bit too!"
It’s not a clone or a bootleg, but it’s also not the original hardware either. In Brazil, the Sega Master System lives on as a licensed, ROM-on-Chip (RoC) console. It's basically like a self-contained emulator—still manufactured and stocked on retail shelves, preloaded with 132 classic games. 40 years after its original release, and 36 years since it made its way to Brazil, the 8-bit system that vanished from shelves elsewhere is alive and well.This isn’t just retro gaming dressed up as a collector’s item. Brazil has an incredibly unique and fascinating gaming culture, born out of frustrating tariff policies and other factors that isolated them from the greater global gaming industry.

Speaking to The Game Business Mr. Utsumi said he wants SEGA to cover all bases going forward and have software for everyone, “I’d really like to revive that SEGA spirit. Sometime around 2000, even around the 1980s, we were regarded as a very cultural company. If you compare it to the music industry, I believe SEGA brings rock and roll. In the arcade business, we really had a rock and roll mindset and trying to provide new stuff. So nowadays, we want Sega to always be trying something different, while ..."
Former Nintendo of America vice president of sales Bruce Lowry has said that leaving the company to help form Sega of America in the mid 1980s was "probably the biggest mistake" of his career"To this day, I look at it as probably the biggest mistake I ever made," the former exec who helped launch the NES told Time Extension. "It was a difficult decision. I had been pursued by [Hayao] Nakayama, the Japanese president of Sega, because they wanted to come to the U.S."Sega had apparently been contacting Lowry for over a year with the exec showing little interesting in leaving the moustachioed plumber for his blue rival. But, then, he had a thought. "'Do you think you could do it again, or were you just lucky?'" The question "ate" at him, so Lowry decided to ...
