If you're looking for fresh Sega Mega Drive and Genesis news then look no further. As thanks to a heads up from Per Ola via Facebook, we've been told that the previously released ZX Spectrum version of 'GLUF', has now appeared on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis thanks to the hard work of RetroSouls; a great team of retro heads who also released fabulous games such as YAZZIE and Old Tower on other systems such as the MSX.

SEGA of America hosted a special livestream recently, the first Sonic Official stream of this year, where some of their team discussed Sonic-related news. Aaron Webber was there to answer questions from fans in the chat, with one of the most popular ones being why it's been so long since there was a new Sonic game announcement or reveal trailer. Webber's response was that SEGA used to release Sonic titles on a yearly basis, but the company decided that they no longer wanted to rush games out, and made the choice to give each game a longer development cycle. He also says that the team is incredibly excited about what's in store, but they can't say anything more at this time. The last time a mainline 3D console Sonic the Hedgehog game released was Sonic Forces, back in 2017.
 (response is at 14-minute mark)

eskayelle’s ultimate vision comes to fruition with this final set of mods in the TMNT of Rage series.
On an alternate timeline in an alternate universe, Mr. X and the Syndicate have fallen at the hands of those radical reptiles, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Furious with his latest failure to control the city, X enlists one Oroku Saki to capture the fearsome foursome’s greatest ally, April O’Neil.
Rage in their hearts and pizza in their bellies, the turtles jump into action, dead set on putting an end to Mr. X’s tyranny once and for all… and punish the Shredder for being complicit in the Syndicate’s nefarious misdeeds as well.
A direct descendant of eskayelle’s TMNT of Rage hack and its TMNT Remix successor, this mod adds the following to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles of Rage experience:
- A throwback to the old 90’s arcade splash screens starts off your gaming experience.
- A six sequence ending specific to this game, the first for any SoR2 hack out there, incorporates redesigned images from the classic TMNT II and III NES games. These images also put some artistic spins on the palettes / color schemes for a bit of extra fun.
- Those bumbling buffoons, those moronic mutants, Rocksteady and Bebop, have now joined the Syndicate! Dumber than advertised, but stronger than ever, get ready to go toe to toe with them, Bebop making his first appearance in a Genesis / Mega Drive game.
- An updated story in attract mode complements the new ending sequence.
- A new title screen takes greater advantage of the Genesis / Mega Drive’s palette options.
- Thanks to Yoni, gone are road apples in favor of a nice slice! Try not to smile the first time you hear Mikey calling out “Pizza Time!” as he grabs some grub.
- With the additional Re-Shelled patch, play the game on a Terraonion MegaSD (or with any emulator that supports MD+ functionality) to enjoy that sweet soundtrack from eskayelle’s TMNT MD+ Remix. Grab that soundtrack here!
And… those fantastic features from the previous mods in the series continue to kick shell!
Grab a copy of the patch today! And… check out the hacking blog here!

An English ‹translation› for the Game Gear’s first ‹RPG›, Eternal Legend, has been ‹released›.
‹Legend› tells of the ‹lost city› of ‘Millennium’, a golden ‹paradise› created to praise the ‹gods›. It is said that the bearer of the eight [Golden Knives] shall open the way to ‘Millennium’ and its long-lost ‹treasures› and ‹technology›. One day, «Arwyn», a young ‹treasure hunter›, unexpectedly finds himself caught up in the ‹search› for ‘Millennium’. In a ‹journey› spanning the entire ‹world›, «Arwyn», together with companions «Ryall» and «Blue Moon», must solve ‹mysteries› and uncover ‹conspiracies› from across the ages in order to learn the ‹secret› of ‘Millennium’…
Eternal Legend is a 1991 RPG developed by Japan Art Media for the Sega Game Gear. It’s a very orthodox RPG notable mostly for being the very first one on the Game Gear. It features vast overworlds based on real-world continents, a simple monster summoning mechanic, and a highly idiosyncratic system of ‹text bracketing›.
As the first RPG on the console, the game is unfortunately a bit primitive in some respects. In an attempt to make it slightly more palatable to modern players, the translation also includes a complete game walkthrough and provides optional cheats to speed up movement and prevent random encounters, though players interested in the original experience can forgo these if they prefer.
This patch was the work of TheMajinZenki (translation), Supper (hacking), and cccmar (editing and testing). The authors hope that you’ll enjoy the game, despite all ‹obstacles›.

Japanese publisher Sega has released its full-year financial results, showing growth across the board.
The publisher reported net sales of ¥366.6 billion ($3.4 billion) for the 12 months ended March 31, 2020 -- up 10.5% year-on-year.
Operating income rose 111.3% to ¥27.6 billion ($257.8 million), while profit attributable to parent was up 421% to ¥13.8 billion ($128.9 million).
In the Entertainment Contents segment, which handles its video games business, sales were reported as ¥247.7 billion ($2.3 billion), up nearly 13% from the previous financial year.
Operating income for this business was reported as ¥14.8 billion ($138.3 million), up 51% year-on-year.
While digital games were largely to thank for this growth -- a trend Sega notes is continuing amid the COVID-19 pandemic -- the publisher also reported a "significant increase" in packaged games sales.
Over the course of the year, 26.7 million boxed games were sold, up from the 23.4 million shifted in the previous financial year. Packaged games sales generated ¥78.2 billion ($730.5 million), showing year-on-year growth of 43%.
In fact, packaged games were comfortably the largest revenue source for Sega's Entertainment Contents business, followed by amusement machine sales at ¥51.1 billion ($477.3 million) and digital games at ¥47.2 billion ($440.9 million).
By comparison, packaged games were second largest segment for this part of the business last year, just ¥1 million behind amusement machines at ¥54.6 million ($510 million).

Retroguru released an almost brand new puzzle game to the public. Xump 2 has been first released at the demoparty Revision 2017 in Saarbrücken, Germany.
Now three years later the game is prettier and has developed a lot. The boxed version can be pre-ordered from DragonBox Shop for 29€ excluding shipping.
According the the developers and their Facebook post, the game ROM will be made free by 1st January 2021, which is a really smart move. We hope, other developers will pick up this idea of a boxed release and a free ROM after a while.

Sega has launched its own music brand and begun publishing soundtracks in its home market of Japan.
A press release shared by Famitsu announces the debut of Sega Music, which will now be the umbrella brand for all game music releases from the publisher.
Sega will work with various music labels on each release, using the new branding to signify the company's involvement.
The first release is the Sakura Wars Complete Collection, or New Sakura Taisen Kayo Complete Collection as it's known in Japan.
The album is based on the latest Sakura Wars title for PS4, and was released in collaboration with Wave Master Entertainment earlier this week.

Sega used to rule the arcades. Older readers will remember the glory days of tokens and quarters. From Out Run to Hang-On and After Burner, Sega arcade games stood out. This was mainly due to their cabinets which were usually huge and eye popping. Now select Sega arcade cabinets are popping out for a different reason.

BlastEm v0.6.3 pre (2020/04/18) is released. BlastEm has the goal of being an extremely accurate Genesis emulator while still running on relatively modest hardware by using advanced techniques. Currently it meets neither my accuracy nor performance goals, but those goals are pretty high. Speed and accuracy should be sufficient for most purposes. It runs at full speed on an old first generation Intel Atom and can run Sonic 2 at around 600 fps on a Haswell desktop using a single core. To my knowledge, it is the only emulator besides Genesis Plus GX that can properly display the "TITAN 512C FOREVER" portion of Titan's Overdrive demo, and the only emulator besides Exodus that passes all 122 of the tests in Nemesis' VDP FIFO Testing ROM and can properly display "Direct Color DMA" demos.
BlastEm Features:
* savestates
* integrated debugger
* GDB remote debugging
* joystick/gamepad support
* Mega/Sega Mouse support
* save RAM and EEPROM support
* Sonic & Knuckles lock-on
* turbo and slow modes
* configurable low pass filter
* single pass GLSL shaders (though there are no interesting ones presently)
