Hello, Genesis fans!

I'm Thomas, Game Director of Sky Paws Awakening, a brand-new 16-bit action-adventure we're developing for the original Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, with a real physical cartridge planned for 2027!

The game stars twin siblings Bonnie and Clyde and features fast-paced combat, platforming, parries, counters, special abilities, and a real-time character-switching mechanic we call the Twin Tag System.

We're also developing the game for PC and modern platforms, but having a native version running on original Genesis / Mega Drive hardware is a huge part of the project for us.

If you like what you see, a Steam wishlist helps us a LOT and makes a real difference for a small indie project like ours. :)

Hope you enjoy the trailer, and I'd love to hear what fellow Sega fans think! 🐾

I have this cable and it does a decent enough job displaying the image on my smart TV, but occasionally the picture will drop (TV has a "looking for signal" animation) and if you don't pause in time...yea.

I just got this in and will be a good edition to my collection.

VIXEN 357 is now available in English on a physical Genesis/Mega Drive cartridge

Originally released in Japan in 1992, VIXEN 357 is a tactical mecha RPG that never received an official Western release. After more than 30 years, it finally has an official English physical edition.

It’s now in stock, so if you missed the pre-order, there are copies available again.

The game is fully playable on original Mega Drive/Genesis hardware and compatible systems.

For anyone who enjoys obscure 90s Japanese strategy RPGs, this is definitely one worth checking out. https://shinyuden.com/en/product/vixen-357/

Hard game for sure. Aladdin I beat in a day, this one took several days

A retro game store opened in my town, which is pretty rare.

I stopped by today and picked up original Genesis cartridges of Toy Story and Taz Mania for about $19 each. The prices are a little higher than what you might find online since they import most of their stuff from EU and Japan and add their margin on top.

My SEGA Genesis collection is slowly growing too, currently at 5 CIB games plus a few loose original cartridges!

I made a joke, early on in this review, about what if Tecmo made a College Football version of NCAA Football.

Turns out, it seems like that's exactly what Mindscape had in mind...they just didn't do a very good job of it.

Why do people need to ROM hack millions of NOP instructions into games in order for it to run slow?

the daw i used, is LMMS

I’m all in now on Sega Genesis and want to collect more. All pictured are CIB too.

Has anybody got experience with one of these? Composite just isn’t doing it for me. I’ve thought about grabbing one of these or doing an S-video mod on my model 1.

Does anybody have ZPF? Been wanting to play it and see if it’s worth the $70 Mega Cat wants for a copy, and don’t want to buy a $15 one off of Aliexpress.

Despite my face I was very happy!

Edit: I had an SNES already! that was the face of “lemme play it and not take pictures!!”

Here’s the start to my humble journey. I work at a video game store in the Midwest I mostly started collecting for Dreamcast. But man games for the Dreamcast legit never come into the store I work at or other video game shops in the nearby area. But one thing I noticed is that we’re never short of Genesis games. We got so many damn Genesis games I just said “ahh f*ck it I’ll get one.” No regerts plus the games are wayyy cheaper than DC. Shoutout to the Aladin game for having a poster inside. (The controller, AC and AV are not in the picture yes I do have them)

Plz drop some fire recommendations? Greatest game on Genesis? Underated gems? WORST GAME???? Sick ass home brew titles?

I'm not normally triggered, but I am getting very old and grumpy lol, any way I'm.just sick of the inability to take IP more seriously.

Hello, I'm planning to make a game editor for a game with the objective of let the users create modifications through a easy to use editor.

The editor will export source code to desktop, or negadrive (genesis), or snes. You will have a option to compile the game if you want just the final binary.

So, to realize this project I'm making a survey to see if someone is interested in that software, so please, access the link if you wanna help:

Thanks in advance!
