SegaShiro: Pure SEGA HARDCORE! The Sega Saturn Archive / Sega Dreamcast / Sega Archive

Though this article seems completely irrelevant on a Sega site, I think nearly everyone has a special place in their heart for good ol’ Pokemon, right? Anyway, for those who recently forked out their cash on Pokemon ‘Heart Gold’ and ‘Soul Silver’ will either be devastated or they’ll dance with joy as it has been announced that yet another Pokemon game is on it’s way! Pokefans rejoice!

The announcement had little details aside from the logos of the games (above) and that more will be revealed on April the 15th. It is yet again on the DS, and is apparently a brand new adventure, yes that’s right – it’s not a remake of a ten year old game…

It is already into the month of April in Japan and this video of Virtua Fighter has appeared to remind gamers of the new direction of series -- complete with screaming bear.

What if Virtua Fighter played like Street Fighter? It seems to work for that little known Capcom franchise…but I’m worried to see what tricks that the SEGA of America and SEGA Europe might have in store for unsuspecting fans tomorrow. Those guys at the SEGA blogs are crafty.

It is the only arcade that I know that has Asian style units with seats and significant SEGA and Atomiswave content.

Titles such as Initial D Version 4 Stage, Rumble Fish 2, House of the Dead III, and Ghost Squad were all in attendance.  Read the rest of this entry »

The DJ Charlie from the STRICTLY SEGA crew have put together a fan DVD with all proceeds going to charity. The DVD features tons of SEGA content including a little something special from the SEGASHIRO team here.

Watch the trailer, order the DVD and know that you -- yes, you -- helped the children. Yes, the children.

The DVD is now available online on EBAY….the first run was limited to 25 copies! 25 Rare copies and one has already sold! Check them out: here.

[I am using the un-patched version of Sonic Robo Blast meaning that the version used in this is outdated and not as good as the patched version, Thanks for Sonict for pointing this out]

Welcome to my first edition of Sega Rummage in which I analyse some more obscure official/unofficial Sega content. Today I am going to be exploring a fan made Sonic game named Sonic Robo Blast. Is it one of those crappy pirated Sonic games you find on various other consoles? We’ll find out!
