Took a quick look at Body Count and looks like they changed the Sega Mouse with the Mega Mouse, as expected from the region (yes, US mouse is "Mega" and non-US mouse is "Sega", they got it backwards).

Also that's definitely Not Bruce Willis™.
Screenshot of Body Count device select screen. There's a guy who looks like Bruce Willis in the background holding a gun. Text: Player 1. Two icons at the bottom: 3 button controller (not selected), European Sega Mouse (selected). The mouse is square-ish and has two blue buttons separated by a small gap. Same as the other screenshot, but the Sega Mouse has been replaced with a Mega Mouse. This mouse is a lot rounder, has three normal buttons + a small Start button below, and there's no gap between those three buttons.

This is going to go underreported but Garfield The Lost Levels replaces the password and bonus round options with one that lets you watch several of Garfield's animations.
Original options menu. Garfield. Difficulty: kitty (selected). Password. Music: 01. SFX: 001. Bonus Round. Exit. To the left of the title is Garfield looking tired (from having to push in the title when you enter the menu). The Lost Levels options menu. Garfield. Animation: (no text after the colon, selected). Difficulty: kitty. Music: 01. SFX: 001. Exit. Garfield is to the left of the title, looking like he's climbing on something because we're playing that animation.

I was wondering what were the changes in the Sega Channel version of Bloodshot (er, Battle Frenzy) and it didn't take long to find.
Screenshot of the walls in the first room. The texture is incomplete and half of it looks like a glitchy mess. Screenshot of the same room, with the texture fixed.

Congrats to Sly Dawg
A handdrawn picture of Earthworm Jim showing him all sparkly, next to another Jim on the floor all burnt up. Big text around him says "New and improved", and there's a spotlight pointing at him. Text to the side: Congrats to this month's Digital Spotlight artist - S. "Sly Dawg" Zemlo, age 15, of Oshkosh, WI.

So the Sega Channel guide in Argentina and Chile was bilingual, huh? (I assumed it'd stick to one language, not offer both)

Not on Patreon? I uploaded a video of my new Crab Boss to YouTube. It's still in development and needs a lot of work on the attacks and timing, but most of the parts are in place and working.

Imagine trying to sell Sonic 3D in your product but you accidentally include the 819 prototype in it.

I just realised that scrolling can be used to do temporal reprojection of interlaced lines to reduce the artefacts. Only in 2d space but still 😮!

Ported the #C64 sprite handler to #Amiga (bottom left, using 16blit) and to #SegaGenesis / #MegaDrive (bottom right, using low level functions from #SGDK)... Hello SEGA!

had the smart idea to use a bunch of sprites up like this, virtually free as far as performance goes because the screen-space coordinates for the corners are already figured out.

Bit more work needed before it's really a complete game, but this is coming together nicely.
I massively sped the line code up, actually surprised it can hit 30fps with all these things littering the stage without having to use any assembly. #sgdk #gamedev

So it is possible to do 60fps 3d on the sega megadrive by using a very exotic indexing method to simulate 2 colors + alternating lines + fast DMA. Totally interlaced my brain 🙃
