This new Sega-Atlus-Vanillaware is a God Send for Sega Saturn fans.

It's basically a Shining Force/Dragon Force/Princess Crown mash up 💪🏻

Ooh, that's going to be awesome. Definitely taking inspiration from Dragon Force, a series that deserved to sell millions. In a just world, we'd have as many DF games as Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. And I always love how Vanillaware follows the same art style going all the way back to Princess Crown (another unjustly overlooked Sega Saturn classic...cough, fan translation, ahem).

I hope this videogame is successful enough to enable Sega to look at its vast software library and consider reviving its many RPG classics: Shining Force 3 Trilogy, Terra Phantastica, Princess Crown, Dragon Force.

Vanilla games are on the rise:
Dragon's Crown > Million seller
13 Sentinels > Million seller

Plus, Sega-Atlus networks will help.

Does playing burned games on a dreamcast vs retail disks wear the laser down faster?
Also, I remember dreamcasts having the VGA adapter back in the day... how easy is it to connect to DC to a TV via HDMI, just need an adapter?

I have made quite a bit of progress.

Updates are happening here : Sega Mag
You can scroll up to see a little bit of everything.

I have worked on all dungeon specifications this summer and I am currently implementing them in Tiled. Then I will integrate them into the code and connect everything.

(as a small side project I have been hacking back some lost gradient in Sonic Spinball on Master System, might continue eventually)
(and as a side note I have created a hack of Mortal Kombat II precisely for the same reason, if you are interested : link)

My Game Gear game (The Sword of Stone) is releasing this month, I know it is expensive buying a physical game but this is the only way to support me ! Thanks for you interest.

So my google feed showed that Square Enix is taking pre-orders these replica models of Sega consoles.

I mean - they look nice... but why Square Enix, especially Square?

I am still pretty sour that Square never supported Sega consoles - yet they are trying to make money off them selling the replica models?
I'm sure Sega will still get some cut from the sales from these replicas - but I guess I'm still pretty salty about it.
 
That footage says Akira but my mind says Sarah when I see those movements... It is odd because his Hakkyoken is filled with sharp quick strikes that may or may not link to throws.

Why don't we get cool console start ups like this anymore?

Everything seems to have this minimalist, corporate, safe vibe going for ages now. Advertising, user interfaces etc. Aside from the DC aesthetic, Designers Republic on the Wipeout series was a thing one time long, long ago. Even Windows XP had a certain charm to it. PS2 start up. And so on. Ridge Racer 5 still looks futuristic and that was 25 years ago.

I think the cross play is a big deal.
Transformed players were isolated on Xbox, PS3 and PC. It was hard to find players online...

With Sonic movie's hype, cross play and the return of arrogant Nintendo...

Sega has an opportunity to shine.
I'm not talking about beating Mario Kart but selling more than 1 or 2 million units (Transformed's performance).

I think 5 million is easily reachable with good score, mediocre marketing and nice guest stars.

With proper marketing, cross promotion (TV Shows, guests from other publishers as well), great season pass, it could dream of 10 million units sold.
 
I got hyped by Sakura Wars' song and bought it



But terrible dialogue, super slow pace, meh gameplay, too hard for me to finish the game (did half of the game).
