VGR Segata Sanshiro


Here it is! My 100th Video Game Review!! Yay!


And what better on this very special occasion than a game unlike any other.

A marketing ploy, a gimmick game, an advertisement game for a series of commercial.

The most awesome fictional character ever imagined for a marketing campaign - Segata Sanshiro!!

Half-review, semi-walkthrough, here goes, a celebration of everything SEGA SATURN!!

#Ad - Segata Sanshiro Sega Saturn Commercials

If back in the 90s, Sony seemingly won the 3D era with the Playstation and its rich library of original titles, Nintendo coming close second with the 64 thanks to a truckload of 3D platformers... Sega seemed lost in the 2D era. And forgotten.

As much as it saddens me to say, the Saturn always seemed like the black sheep of the Sega family.
Even though it had its fair share of original titles, it never rised to the popularity of the other two...in the West!

Because back in Japan, Sega was able to develop a lil' cult phenomenon, long before internet memes and Viral Marketing.

Thanks to Segata Sanshiro.

With the rise of Japanese culture and animes/mangas later on, you can only imagine if the Saturn would have been more popular, had Sega just used the same marketing oversees...

Anyways, here is a compilation featuring ALL of Segata Sanshiro's Sega Saturn ads!
They are very random and oh, so perfect at the same time! Try to get the link between Segata's ads and the games they represent.
Enjoy:



LONG LIVE SEGATA SANSHIRO!
Not only he sacrificed himself for the Dreamcast, but he also ride off for space like no problem.
I believe he still lives up there, because space needed a SATURN too.

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing ART JAM retrospective


That's right, this is a little post about the Art Jam I've been running on deviantArt!

In case you would have a look at the original deviantArt Journal where all the fun was at, click this link!

So, I would like to have a little retrospective of the Jam on my blog.
A small recap, if you please.

But first of all, I'd like to thank everybody who participated in the Jam!
This ought to show Sega and Sumo Digital how much we love our Sega franchises and characters,
and that a wider range of characters from all Sega periods should have been representated in game!

A quick look at a compilation of all our different and various entries! Click it to see it in bigger and better format!
