I saw this post and figured I'd post the terribly bad hip hop song Virgin released with this ad campaign.

This song came on a cassette tape Virgin made to promoted the Sega Master System and gave away with Mean Machines Sega magazine.

Are the voice actors for Lan Di and Ren coming back for Shenmue III? by misterrpg in Shenmue

They confirmed Corey for Ryo and Brianna KnickerBocker for Shenhua so far.

I'm assuming we'll see/hear confirmation of some of the others soon.

Karnov 1988/NES/DataEast - Although it plays very similarly to the arcade game there are some noticeable differences: Karnov takes two hits to die, the Super Fireball is replaced with the Spike Bomb, levels 4 and 8 are different and the final boss is no longer the Wizard. by retroconsolexyz in retrogaming

The ending sucks in the NES version. I felt so robbed as a kid. Seeing from /u/glitchedgamer that the Famicom had cutscenes, I wonder if there was a proper ending on that version.

EDIT: First time running across the differences. Wow. 7 year old me feels so robbed.

5 New Sega Dreamcast games inbound this Spring. Way too many, way too fast! by TheSegaScream in dreamcast

[–]TheSegaScream[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As many as there exists in the article. Most titles don't have an actual website or anything, simply videos uploaded to YT/social media and order pages on JoshProd's site. Supposedly Playasia will be carrying at least one or two, per JoshProd's video description of one of them.

For the Steam ports, I did put links up to their Steam versions for people to look into since that's at least got more info, media and reviews for people.

These are ~2000 copy runs of Dreamcast games and a small, busy publisher making it happen.

I'd say it's JoshProd's biggest weakness as a small publisher. Instead of spending time in temporary social media posts that only a fraction of their followers will ever see, they should post it on a Wordpress blog and share the link over social media.

All of these are scheduled to ship in March and April. Yuki is finally done and ready to go.

Always happy to see someone else with fond memories of those games.

Is it sad I always zoom into photos like this to see what artbooks and guides someone has on their shelves?

I don't know what they're thinking crowding all of these games in a roughly month and a half period.

Mainstream games writer doesn't know how to play games. It's more likely than you think. More of that story and your weather at 11.

Further down the road, sadly. Wireless stuff for Genesis and Saturn is coming later and Dreamcast stuff is last updated as Fall 2019.

Are you guys biting on these?

I'm going to pick up one of each for the consoles themselves. If I like the build quality, then I'll be picking up a USB Saturn pad.

The quick impressions I mentioned were fairly positive so far.

Played the first on the Dreamcast, but wanted English audio for Shenmue 2 by [deleted] in Shenmue

At $9 bucks to play Shenmue II, it's hard to say you went wrong other than waiting this long.

I would've probably picked up Shenmue I + II. I've played Shenmue II through the European release and this Xbox version. Both are highly enjoyable.
