@HammerGalladeBro It seems as though Sega is planning something with them. Someone elsewhere mentioned a subscription service but I don't see how this is possible since Sega don't have enough already ported games ala Sonic Origins to make a subscription service. 🤔
Off topic but Sega in their infinite wisdom have de-listed all MD games from Steam including PSIV. They probably want to pull a Sonic Origins and release a rubbish compilation again. 😆
This might explain why it took two years for the game to get a release in non-Japanese regions. It's very odd Sega would not publish the game immediately considering they put out the second and third game for MD.
For all this talk however that RPGs weren't really a thing on MD around the mid-90's we saw a good number of RPGs being released for Mega Drive and Saturn. I don't believe that PSIV wasn't released because a lack of RPG popularity.
@-wc- When it comes to RPGs I seem to get on better with tactical strategy games like Shining Force. Final Fantasy style games, Baldur's Gate games or dungeon crawlers I don't get on with. I don't hate them but I can't play them without cheating because I find them too difficult.
@-wc- I imported the American Sega CD releases some years back but apart from trying them to make sure they work on my PAL console I never played through. I should get around to playing them. I just don't get on well with non-tactical strategy RPGs. Find them too difficult. 😂
@-wc- I'm guessing they decided to make a new English dub but this means people who want the original won't get it. If it's on Steam I'm sure modders will just add the original dub back in.
@X68000 That's to be expected. Their ignorance means they think because MD can't do orchestral music it's got terrible sound. People try to pin the same blame on the Master System and say that sound is terrible. It always depended on the composer.
I always decided since I'm anti-Nintendo that I probably wouldn't be a good fit for NL. 😂
"but we've been told by Slopes Game Room that the full amount (375 euros + shipping) has been charged to his credit card less than a day after he submitted his pre-order."
That's quite nice. A shame you need to guy a Polymega for it though. As usual home computer ports get ignored. These companies never seem to learn for some reason. 🤦♂️
@Toobin4Tommy I have mentioned various times elsewhere where he's been wrong. I don't need to write an article or make a video to show that. If you can't see Hbomberguy cherry picks his evidence then I don't know what to say.
@Toobin4Tommy I never said I was doing a video. Also his video is accurate to an extent but this is Hbomberguy we're talking about. He's great at presenting one side of something and that's about it. 😆
The fact you obsessively researched me online and then rather easily found an obscure hate subreddit some POS created on me not only makes your arguments void but also shows you hang around those trolls. Maybe don't harass and dox others? You guys so far have been making look like a complete saint in all this. 🙄

Re: Want Your Very Own Sega Neptune? You'll Need A Spare $2,600
I was under the impression this was a combined Mega Drive, 32X and Mega CD. Did Sega ever plan anything like that?

Re: Sega Wanted Phantasy Star IV To Flop In The West, Hence The Sky-High $100 Price
@sdelfin The ones you own will show up. I'm not sure when they plan to delist them though. It may not be now but soon.

Well done! Good to see some C64 preservation. 👍

What about an invincibility cheat?

@HoyeBoye The game comes with an English dub. Check the trailer.
Re: This Proto-GamesMaster TV Show Predicted Our Impending AI Hellscape 40 Years Ago
Seems like quite a fun show. I wonder why it didn't last longer?
Re: Lunar Remastered Won't (Currently) Include The Original English Voice Acting, But It's Been Offered "For Cheap"
@-wc- The trailer seems to imply it does.
@Daniel36 Pretty sure Working Designs is hugely respected by gamers.
Re: SuperSega Explains Why It Produces Such "Crappy" Videos, Says It's Afraid Analogue Will Steal Its Ideas
@Soupbones Oh I agree. The mystery game was the dolphin one wasn't it? Would be nice if Fonzie communicated more.
Re: SuperSega Explains Why It Produces Such "Crappy" Videos, Says It's Afraid Analogue Will Steal Its Ideas
@Soupbones Got mine in December 2020 and love the game! 😊
@Thwipp If the Super Sega can provide full compatibility for Master System games that's something even Mega SG can't do.

Re: A Brand New Video Game Museum Is Opening In The Heart Of Rome
@MysticWangForce Oh for sure but one in London would also be nice.
Re: Remember When A Sega Genesis Got Fused With A Digital Camera? Yep, We'd Forgotten About It, Too
@X68000 Well it is Nintendo Life. They're full of drones there. 😂
Re: Sega Just Announced New Hardware, But Don't Get Too Excited – It's Not Dreamcast 2
Did someone say emojis? 😉😉👍
Re: Remember When A Sega Genesis Got Fused With A Digital Camera? Yep, We'd Forgotten About It, Too
@X68000 I was referring to the fact they're combining a camera with the terrible sound of AtGames MD devices. I never had a problem with MD sound.
Re: SuperSega Boss Rocks Up In His Lamborghini To Beg For Your Pre-Order Cash
@Mr_Wolf12000 "public record is public record bud. Watch the video and decide for yourself."
I decided as soon as the video came up. I gave it a chance and as usual Hbomberguy has problems presenting complete reality.
Re: SuperSega Boss Rocks Up In His Lamborghini To Beg For Your Pre-Order Cash
@Mr_Wolf12000 I wouldn't use Hbomberguy as a reasonable source. 👍
Re: SuperSega Explains Why It Produces Such "Crappy" Videos, Says It's Afraid Analogue Will Steal Its Ideas
This thing has an uphill battle to succeed. Will be interesting what the Spanish YouTuber gets out of him.
@Soupbones They delivered though.
@amongtheworms The only normal innocent man I know is Stuttering Craig. 😉
@PinballBuzzbro How so?
Re: Remember When A Sega Genesis Got Fused With A Digital Camera? Yep, We'd Forgotten About It, Too
So it's a camera with terrible sound then? 😂
@Mephistopheles I see what you're getting at. 😉
Re: 8-Bit Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Is Getting An Impressive Fan-Made Remake
Great, now I can play an updated version of the most unnecessarily hard SMS Sonic game. You get to use the hang glider...but wait kids...in 16bit! 😆
Re: Confusion Reigns As SuperSega Pre-Orders Get Charged For The Full Amount
"but we've been told by Slopes Game Room that the full amount (375 euros + shipping) has been charged to his credit card less than a day after he submitted his pre-order."
Looks like Slope got "taken for a ride". 😆
Re: A Brand New Video Game Museum Is Opening In The Heart Of Rome
I do wish London had one.
Re: Atari Has Acquired Chris Sawyers' Classic PC Sim 'Transport Tycoon'
So...they bought it back? 🤔
Re: SuperSega Boss Rocks Up In His Lamborghini To Beg For Your Pre-Order Cash
I couldn't watch the entire video. It makes me motion sick. 🤢
@Mr_Wolf12000 Amico wasn't a scam but it was mismanaged and over ambitious.
@Steel76 How is Tallarico a scumbag?
Re: Polymega Gets Classic Arcade Games Via Physical "Polymega Collection" Series
That's quite nice. A shame you need to guy a Polymega for it though. As usual home computer ports get ignored. These companies never seem to learn for some reason. 🤦♂️
Re: Review: Toaplan Arcade 4 (Evercade) - Dogyuun Alone Means This Is Worth A Look
Censorship on Evercade? Wow, that's a new one. Games look decent, a shame Blaze's Evercade Discord and mods are so terrible. 😆

Re: Gallery: Remembering Legendary Sega And Data East Artist Jun Satoh
@DestructoDisk I wasn't a big fan of the jazzy boxart of the Japanese releases. I felt they undersold the games.

Re: "The Project Is A Complete Scam" - The Internet Isn't Convinced By The SuperSega FPGA Console
@RootsGenoa Carts are clean and other SMS games are accepted. For the record this is a known issue which so far has not been addressed.
Re: After The Epic Failure Of The Intellivision Amico, Tommy Tallarico's New Goal Is Becoming A Backgammon Legend
"Pc's are for work only"
Then do some work and stop stalking people online while you spread false allegations! 🤦♂️
Re: "The Project Is A Complete Scam" - The Internet Isn't Convinced By The SuperSega FPGA Console
@RootsGenoa Dude last update was 4.9 last year. It's updated. I also just wasted my time by trying the games and guess what? They still don't work!
How about you listen to my experience instead of blindingly defending Kevtris for not doing his job properly?
Re: After The Epic Failure Of The Intellivision Amico, Tommy Tallarico's New Goal Is Becoming A Backgammon Legend
"that's launched FIVE consoles"
Five 'clone' consoles...
