This means that, in theory, developers would only need to learn about Sega’s new GPU… right?Street Fighter II was always going to be a hard sell to my younger siblings, but the appeal of a certain blue hedgehog had won all three of us over in the meantime through his wonderful 8-bit debut. Sonic: Mega Drive has a defining feature in the fact that a second printing of the comic was made due to the high amount of copies sold of the first printing, making it currently the only Archie Sonic the Hedgehog comic book to ever achieve this feat. The audio capabilities of this console are a bit unorthodox, to say the least. On one side, the Mega Drive provides existing audio technology from the previous generation, on the other side, it adds a new (but complicated) synthesis technique on top of the existing one. So, in some ways, you get both generations.

I expected a walkover so spent the opening seconds practicing Dragon Punches, but had to rally to avoid being perfected by India’s most flexible fighter. In the second round, I went hell for leather, but a mix of excitement and frustration allowed Dhalsim to really put me to the sword and achieve that perfect victory.

Pink’s a gifted writer who turns even the heaviest scientific study into something digestible — and often amusing — without losing his intellectual punch. ” —New York Post

The only excuse you have for not having played Battletoads is being born after 1991 (it was originally a NES game, before receiving a superb Mega Drive port in 1993). This was followed by a section of lovely artwork and... sprite sheets. Um. Well, everybody likes pixels and sprites and whatnot, but, sprite sheets. You can find these online.

I never had a SMD when I was a kid but I learned to love it because my wife had one, and now it's one of my two favorite retro consoles (the other being the SDC). So I was really anxious to get this book, also judging by the publisher's other works quality and high standards. The scrolling brawler adventure starred three battle-hardened toads (Rash, Zitz, and Pimple), tasked with rescuing Princess Angelica after she's kidnapped by the Dark Queen. The game was hard as nails, with the Mega Drive version proving only a smidgen easier due to players getting a larger number of lives - which made the hoverbike sequence of the game nearly manageable.
