Toy Story game is unforgiving.

With the Toy Story collection just coming out I was able to play one of my favorite games from back in the day. I forgot how hard this game is and I’d be amazed if there’s anybody who could beat this without unlimited lives. Other than that it’s fun as hell.

I'm porting Super Metroid to the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive — wall jump progress

8 Upvotes

I'm working on a hobby port of Super Metroid from the SNES to the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive. Here's my latest progress update, running in the BlastEm emulator.

The video covers running and shooting, new turning sprites, camera and gravity adjustments, slowdowns, and a successful wall jump near the end.

It's still a work in progress. I'd love to hear what you think of the movement and camera so far!

Update on my previous post- https://www.reddit.com/r/SEGAGENESIS/s/tY1RYoqNLq

Someone suggested on my previous post Meguiar’s Plast-RX, bought a bottle and gave it a go with a microfibre cloth and it did the trick. The scratches are less visible. Thanks for the suggestion.

I was playing sonic perfectly fine, but then I turned it off and now every game won’t read. And it shows this screen. I tried cleaning the carriages but no luck. I even tried a brand new power cord.

I loved the movie as a kid and I was interested to see how the game was..any thoughts on the game. Worth the buy? Did you finish?

I had to have it 😈
I have only heard that this game pushes the genesis processing to its limit. The quality of gameplay is outstanding, and replaying it doesn’t make it lose appeal, but instead draws you in more🤷🏻‍♂️
I plan on hitting this with an Sega 6button Arcade stick for full effect.
Any tips or suggestions?
I’ve been on a roll finding games for my collection, but other than a handful of high dollar games, like MUSHA Moonwalker, Contra Hard Corps.
I’m not sure there is anything else I want…..maybe Subterrania, Earthworm Jim 2, X-Men 2……..😇
I’lll just say I’ll keep any eye out for a deal.
I feel pretty content and am grateful I was able to reclaim this much of my childhood.

My retrospective video review of all the Rambo games released. I grew up with with the early home computer and the Sega console versions. Also loved the arcades games too. However, not too fond of the later and more recent games. Most are pish. Let me know your favourite and I hope you watch and like my video too. It certainly took me flipping ages to make.

Love this theme song in "Life on Earth" on the Mega Drive.

Received an email from Analogue this morning announcing the new Mega Sg+. Are you interested?

I think it’s great that they’re finally reissuing the Mega SG as the original is often sold for preposterous prices on eBay. That said, I’m honestly torn on whether or not this would be worth the $220 USD for me. I currently use a pre-TMSS model 1 and a Retrotink 4K CE - a setup I’m plenty satisfied with. I’m not sure the added features and modern overhaul really excite me enough to drop the cash for it. That said, it’s a brand new device that might outlive my aging console. What do you think? Are you willing to shell out for a thoroughly modern, high end Genesis console, or is the original all you need?

RGen 1.1.0: turn your own Sega Genesis ROMs into native Windows PC games, now with 8 games and optional widescreen

27 Upvotes

RGen is a free tool that recompiles Sega Genesis / Mega Drive games into native Windows executables, so they run as real PC games rather than through an emulator. You build each game yourself from your own ROM dump. RGen doesn't include any ROMs or game files.

New in 1.1.0:

  • Four new games: Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Road Rash, OutRunners and Micro Machines. They join Sonic 1, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe and Herzog Zwei.
  • Optional 16:9 widescreen that fills the extra screen space with real level art (it's off by default, and you turn it on in the Mods panel)
  • Save states in every game
  • .gen and .md ROMs both work

Download it free at www.r-gen.net. Feedback and bug reports are welcome!

I made a browser-based encoder that creates Sega CD ISOs with fullscreen 30 FPS FMV

68 Upvotes

Hi again! I’m the developer who previously shared CAVC, an FMV codec for the Sega CD, here.

I’ve now released a browser-based encoder so you can try it with your own videos!

https://segacd-fmv-cavc-encoder.akiyan.com/

Select a video, adjust the crop, resolution, and frame rate, and create an ISO/CUE disc image playable on real Sega CD hardware or in an emulator. It supports up to 320×224 fullscreen at 30 FPS, and the download includes an MP4 preview of the encoded result.

No installation needed, and your video stays on your device—nothing is uploaded. Encoding can take quite a while, but please give it a try!

If you run into an error, please open a GitHub issue with the error message and any screenshots. I’d love to hear your feedback!

こんにちは! 以前こちらでCAVCというSEGA-CD向けFMVコーデックを紹介した開発者です。

自分の動画でも試せるように、ブラウザで動くエンコーダーを公開しました!

https://segacd-fmv-cavc-encoder.akiyan.com/

動画を選び、クロップ・解像度・フレームレートを調整すると、SEGA-CD実機やエミュレーターで再生できるISO/CUEを作れます。最大320×224・フルスクリーン30fpsに対応し、ダウンロードにはエンコード結果を確認できるMP4も含まれます。

インストール不要で、動画はアップロードされず、お使いの端末内で処理されます。エンコードにはかなり時間がかかることがありますが、ぜひ試してみてください!

エラーが出た場合は、GitHubのIssueにエラーメッセージやスクリーンショットを添えて報告してもらえると助かります。感想もお待ちしています!

DRIVE or FLOW? What type of Sega player are YOU?

Post image
0 Upvotes

I’ve noticed that all Sega players can generally be divided into two categories. The first group consists of people who love high-octane action, fast-paced gameplay, plenty of special effects, explosions, bold visuals, and hardcore difficulty. The second group is made up of those who prefer a meditative flow—a slower pace, a sense of control and predictability, puzzle-solving, and clear, intuitive design and visuals. Which one are you?

INTRODUCING: Mortal Kombat Sculptured Edition '95 (Coming Soon)

Thumbnail
youtube.com
115 Upvotes

I'm excited to introduce to you... Mortal Kombat Sculptured Edition '95!

Sega Lord X once posed the question... what if Sculptured Software had developed Mortal Kombat on Sega Genesis instead of Probe? And what if they had the resources they had in 1995 when they developed Mortal Kombat 3? I've spent the last two years working on answering that question and I finally have a game I can show you!

A collaborative effort, it contains all enhanced backgrounds with new parallax layers, the arcade characters with full frames of animation, all of the content from the Sega CD version, original arcade voiceovers and sounds, and for the first time ever, the original Dan Forden soundtrack rearranged on the YM2612. All of this locked in on a 32meg cart.

This is the version of Mortal Kombat you've always wanted on Sega Genesis.

It's almost ready to present a playable ROM but I thought I'd give you a video preview of how it's come along. We are very proud of it.
