Happy 26 Years Anniversary for X-Men: Children of the Atom (Saturn) !

Originally released for Capcom CPS-2 hardware in 1994, it was brought to the Sega Saturn on 22nd November 1995, and is built similarly to the likes of Street Fighter II' and Darkstalkers.
The game was widely praised as a result of this, in addition to its colorful graphics and use of voice actors from the then-current X-Men cartoon series.

Maito "SEGA Shiro" Fujioka, Son Of Hiroshi "Segata Sanshiro" Fujioka To Play Takeshi Hongo In Kamen Rider Beyond Generations

Toei has chosen a very unique anniversary celebration for the upcoming Kamen Rider: Beyond Generations movie!
A sequence of the film will take place in 1971 featuring the very first Kamen Rider, Takeshi Hongo. Previously this role had been played by legendary actor Hiroshi Fujioka but at 75 he no longer resembles the original character.
The role instead falls to Maito Fujioka– Hiroshi’s own son!

Adoring this passing the torch father-son duo. Though still wish they did more with Sega Shiro than just a few school ads.

Only Segata Sanshiro and Kamen Rider I guess, I doubt Rambo's torch would be passed to him, lol.



Yeah, such a lost opportunity to have him just showed up for a few 60th related events which mainly only focus on Game Gear Micro.

I agree. Seems like a waste of both potential and legacy. As in Sega Shiro found closure with his dad and was ready to take Sega to thew next level... only for him not to.

Now some of the people that brought you  the recently fan localized Sakura Wars GB: Go Forth, Young Cadet! are back to release their most ambitious localization to date: Bulk Slash, a title praised for its presentation, soundtrack, gameplay, replayability, and its graphics.
The localization team not only translated all the text, but also had voice actors come in and dub the game.
For a fan localization project, this is pretty major.

Tomb Raider's Nude Raider Myth Was Fake - But It Almost Wasn't

While Nude Raider was never true, and was never planned for, Douglas tells me that there was some pressure from management to add it in later, and feels that part of the reason the rumour endured was because people marketing the game wanted it too.
"I thought it was just a typical juvenile reaction," he says. "Even during development someone in management, perhaps half-jokingly, asked us for something similar and we told them to bog off.

While this might not necessarily mean anything, the fact it's gone to this much effort for Gex has some fans of the anthropomorphic gecko convinced something is going to happen in the near future.
