I am here to play video games and protect my melon from a world of chaos and despair, and I am all out of video games.
Yow. That’s a lot of 8 bit Sega. I have a lot more love for the SG-1000 than most people do so this was a tough listen for me, admittedly.
I've been at this five years and it was unlikely that I'd ever give Sega platforms their due. So I took a look at every 8-bit console game on a Sega platform that was released in Japan and put it all in one video.

This is mass murder.
Backlash surrounding Metroid Prime 4’s chatty supporting cast has inadvertently bled into one gamer’s relationship.

Heeeeeeere we go!
We don't know. What we do know is the wiring diagram works. We built it, virtually, in @godotengine.org. We fed it scans of the books we found.
And the books are very, very strange. The "game" that resulted is also strange.
We're hoping people can make sense of it for us.

The music for Gigalopolis Zone in 'Sonic Chaos' is different between Master System and Game Gear. Turns out, the Master System version uses the song "Oh Yes!1 (SONG 0)", which is a demo tune from the KORG M1 synthesizer. Here's a comparison of the two.

Why in 2025 can I not think of another single screen shmup that's a bit like Donkey Kong 3 on crack?
That game was pretty sick. Surely someone's made something a bit like this already & I just don't know about it? If not, someone else is putting that idea into practice here💪

We've been thrilled to bring a number of Crystal Dynamics games to Evercade both last year and this year, and several of them are enjoying anniversaries today. Give a big happy birthday to Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain (1996), Tomb Raider II (1997) and Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation (1999)!
