    I haven't had such an idiotic grin during a film in a long time, it's a love letter from start to finish.

    The icing on the cake was when this played:

    So apparently Ken Penders is claiming on Twitter that he's in talks to try and reprint the entire run of Archie's Sonic comics, even the ones made years after he quit.

    No no no, they will be collected and stored in a lead tomb (the aforementioned durable volume), then buried in a nameless desert, kept safely away from the eyes of man.

    I'm pretty sure Sony sold more stands for the Dreamcast stand in that tweet than Sega sold Dreamcasts...

    So it looks like the day one edition now comes with one set of costume DLC, leaving four costume sets and four accessory sets to go.

    Sega's 60th anniversary website just debuted a new character, Sega Shiro.

    Portrayed by Maito Fujioka, the son of Hiroshi Fujioka (aka. Segata Sanshiro).

    I had an epiphany in the wee hours of the morning that the segata sanshiro, segasatan shiro joke was both wordplay and also about how the saturn is shiro (white) but then I realized I was thinking of the dreamcast and the saturn was black actually, and then I just lay there in bed, devastated by my own foolishness

    And I remember the Dreamcast

    But aside from knights, virtua fighter and panzer dragoon, I'm not sure I could name other Saturn games

    I was that guy, or at least one of those guys.

    I still have my copies of Dragon Force, and Shining Force III somewhere in my maze of nostalgia shit.

    No matter where you go...there you are.

    Saturn was very expensive and didn't have a lot of recognizable stuff and was competing with the ps1 so yeah it tanked in the west

    burning rangers and guardian heroes are sweet though, among other things

    they also did a weird surprise "and it's in stores now!" launch in the US which was a terrible idea and backfired horribly IIRC

    Part of that being that some retailers were left out as a result of the short initial supply, and they were pissed, swearing off carrying SEGA products.

    And after all the work SEGA of America put in to get them to carry the Genesis and such in the first place, too.

    Wasn't that also the same event where they announced the price at $399, then Sony had their own conference where, in the middle, the President of Sony america got up to the mic, simply said "$299", and then sat back down.

    I had a Saturn and the game I had that got the absolute most play was Worms: Armageddon. That game made for some incredible stay-up-too-late sleepovers.
