SEGA fans and longtime followers of SEGA Nerds and Mega Visions are no strangers to the Console Wars in the 1990s.

Harris published a book that detailed the Console Wars, and I recommend everyone check it out. A documentary based on Harris’ book has been in development for a while, and it…

Phantasy Star Online 2 beta testers can unlock a Dreamcast Mag
Phantasy Star Online on the Dreamcast is one of my favorite games of all time. I have vivid memories of snaking the Dreamcast’s 75-foot phone cord through my house to get it connected to our incredibly slow dial-up internet. It truly was an amazing feat that SEGA was able to pull off on such a slow speed, but PSO was a truly magnificent game. Thankfully, SEGA has finally come to its senses and announced Phantasy…

Knuckles will be playable in SEGA AGES Sonic the Hedgehog 2
The upcoming SEGA AGES Sonic the Hedgehog 2 will have a pretty interesting feature previously only available using “Lock-On Technology.” The game will include Knuckles as a playable character, whereas in Sonic 2’s original Genesis release, it required inserting the game onto the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge to unlock our favorite echidna. While we’ve played Sonic 2 on just about every imaginable console, handheld and vacuum cleaner, it will be kinda neat to have Knuckles…
