Fan Port of Sonic Dream Team is now available for Android



Quote
Every single type of port you can imagine is probably happening as we speak: console to Android, PC to Android, and now not just iOS to Android, but specifically Apple Arcade.
Part of that trend is now SEGA's Sonic Dream Team - the 3D platformer released exclusively for Apple Arcade in December 2023. Since release, many people wished for the game to release on other platforms - and while officially this seemingly isn't happening anytime soon thanks to those juicy Apple contracts, people are now forcing a port into ...

There are many places to suggest but they are pointless since the decisions are not up to us.
They are up to the AI companies and if AI companies thought that they are not cost-effective, they won't use it.
Companies seek profits afterall.
And that's, again, is why I feel it's pointless to protest if Big Tech is blinded by corporate greed.
Seasonal DLCs are now synanomiuous with live services and mobile games, so I don't think there will ever be again for normal games.
Yeah, I imagine the video game industry will go through changes over it.

How exactly is it played without a trackball? Maybe haptic trackpads can be used instead, but not everyone has Steam Controllers or DualSense controllers.

But hey, we got Mario too in Mega Drive and Master System.

It also introduces new graphics and sound modes that take advantage of the SMS's hardware."

With mouse. It's written the mouse is always the trackball here, and turns as the arcade's does: the ball turns with the mouse and, when the mouse stops or is lifted, rolls on and slows down; the right button holds it.

Is it yet to be released for PC?

Yes, you can download it here for PC. It works on windows and Linux via proton.

I wish I could've gone. Hell even if it was hosted in London or Cardiff I doubt I'd be able to attend.

I watched it live on youtube but I only enjoyed the Tee Lopes session. Not enough Sonic songs in Thundercat and Austin Millz sessions.

SEGA Shop Launches Sonic 35th Anniversary Chaos Emerald Replicas







Quote
The set features seven crystal glass emeralds in classic colors, each on its own brass stand, packed in a decorative box with a gold-stamped Sonic logo, available for pre-order at $59.99. Fans on X lit up with excitement, joking about channeling Super Sonic or turning into Thanos, while one shared a photo of the emeralds scattered on a bedsheet asking 'so how do these work.' It joins other anniversary items like a limited-edition medallion set and fits right into SEGA's year of celebrations with apparel and statues.

Ages back, I tried playing a ROM of SegaSonic, using the mouse as trackball, it didn't work as I hoped.

Also just few hours after I commented, I found more Super Mario 64 ported to SEGA consoles.
This one is for SEGA 32X, lol.

Ages back, I tried playing a ROM of SegaSonic, using the mouse as trackball, it didn't work as I hoped.

Because back then that emulator wasn't designed specifically for SegaSonic.
This made me remember back then when I was still in college, I was a SEGA mail subscriber and they sent me a demo of Super Monkey Ball and asking for a review.
The game's control was using mouse and it worked fine like a charm. It was really fun to play.
Kinda funny since the game was released not for PC, but for consoles later using a gamepad. Also for arcade of course, but they're very rare.



Oh wow! I finally get to play Sonic Dream Team... was AI used to port it?

That one, yes, it was vibe-coded.
If you want the one that's not using AI you can try this one by BeatzYT3 : https://gitlab.com/adokova1111/project-dream-release
No AI used at all.



I wonder what's the next major Sonic event in UK is? Not that it matters if I can attend or not.

This one. Came to Glasgow, Edinburgh, Manchester, and Birmingham in February 2027.
