| QUOTE | March 23, 2006 - In a press release simultaneously with an announcement made during Nintendo's keynote speech at GDC 2006 this morning, Nintendo announced that Sega and Hudson have signed on as partners for the Revolution's Virtual Console service. With this, the emulators will be best games from the two companies for the TurboGraphix-16 (or PC-Engine, as it was called in Japan) and Sega Genesis will be downloadable and playable for the Revolution.
Curiously, only Sega Genesis games were mentioned as planned for the Virtual Console system in the deal with Sega (um, hello? Master System? Saturn? Game Gear? 32X?!?), but the partnership promises that many of the best out of the Genesis' 1,000+ gaming library will be available for the Revolution. Individual deals will have to be worked out with publishers for titles to be released on the Revolution, but with a growing interest in classic gaming, publishers and license owners will hopefully be fast to get on-board with Genesis support. And considering that most of the TurboGraphix-16's games released were published and/or developed by Hudson and NEC, it seems that the vast majority of games for the system will automatically fall into that partnership without much more licensing work from the company.
With NES, SNES, N64, and now Genesis and TG-16 on-board, the Revolution has got years of gaming already ready to play as soon as it launches later this year. Look for more news on supported systems and licensed games for the Nintendo Virtual Console as things develop. |

Good times.  I've been putting off eBaying the Bonks and Bombermen (speaking of which, hopefully the service will have BM'94) for a while now... this is almost like the time I finally got around to collecting a Genesis, Sonics 1-3, Knuckles, Spinball, and 3D Blast, and then OOPS Sonic Mega Collection is announced! ...Though TG-16's Space Harrier is the best home version, and it's doubtful any Space Harriers will be anywhere on Revo's download service, so that'll be worth having. | QUOTE | | I just want a new Alex Kidd. Is that so hard to ASK, Sega? Just get your talented staff on it! Not like they're working on Sonic games or anything... |
Take out the Janken matches plz. @_@ ...And get Yu Suzuki to do it?

Space Harrier was originally a Sega game, so Sega may make it available.
Hahaha, funny thing concerning Space Harrier: When we had it, it got to a point when the graphics got so permanently glitched up, everything looked like tall green glitchy blocks that looked like (had I known of it before, Missingno.) asparagus stalks.
It was from that day on I nicknamed Space Harrier "Asparagus Harrier"
