Any Sega Genesis fans?

  1. They just made a new game for it.

    A few years ago a bunch of guys from the internet thought it'll be cool to make a little game for the community. It wasn't long before they realized the project will be something much bigger.

    Watermelon studios was born, and this is the end result. I can't believe how much detail they put into box. I find it amazing that 15+ years after a console has died, a new game gets made for it.

    Here's what the box looks like:



    And the actualy gameplay itself:

     

  2. lol I dont know why I found that line so funny. I love these types of RPGs. I will have to get this game and try it out
     
  3. Lol, I didn't notice that. :)

    Also, I believe the game is $45 now including shipping. It was $35 over a year ago when I pre-ordered. Still worth it. The music is great and it's nice that it includes an audio CD which can also be used in conjunction with the game to produce hi-def sound.

    [EDIT] Looks like the audio CD only came with the original print run, which is sold out. The re-print doesn't include the audio CD, but I'm sure you can burn a copy.

    HO-LEE shit. That's really damn cool.
     
  7. I still got a working Sega. Sadly, no enough money for the game :p I personally would love to see a good side scrolling brawler made.
     
  8. I had a Sega AND a 32x. I miss them.
     
  9. Reminds me of chronotrigger for some reason.
     
  10. Here is some more Sega nostalgia but with guitars.



     
  11. Still have mine, great memories of those games, still play them every so often

    Parting with one's game consoles ?
    HERESY !!
     
  13. I know but I think it was broken or something. I cant think of a good reason why I got rid of it.
     
  14. Looks like it was made with the RPGmaker for pc heh.
     
  15. Most of the game was written in C, the tools are C++ (command line tools), Visual Basic and C# (Windows UI tools).

    The sound driver was written in Z80 ASM, some parts of the game engine are in 68K asm.

    They also used Dream Catcher, a set of tools they coded themselves.
     
  16. I still have a Atari 2600, Sega Genesis, and NES.
     
  17. I regret getting rid of my old ones, but when I needed some cash and was able to sell it I did. The only one I regret though is my Genesis + 32x.

    Need to get this for the Sega Nomad. Best system ever imo. In case you've never heard of the Nomad its the portable Genesis.
     
  19. Nomad was great but very expensive at the time. I had a Game Gear myself and loved it. Power Rangers and Mortal Kombat 2 were the shit.
     
  20. I had a Game Gear as well, only had Sonic games from what I remember.
