Posted on 2 days ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments | 0 Likes
SEGA has announced that Alex Kidd in Miracle World will be the next SEGA Ages game on Switch. It has not been dated, but is due out soon.
Alex Kidd in Miracle World on Switch keeps the fun of the original while utilizing the FM sound unit. Original Mode and AGES Mode will be separate. The Game Over function has also been simplified – there’s a Helper Mode in which you can rewind up to five seconds, making it easier for people who aren’t used to action games. At the start of all the important stages, the team has incorporated newly drawn scenes set to the Sukopako Cycle theme (a track previously unused in-game); they aimed at a more “completed” version of the original.

Team Sonic Racing reveals Doctor’s Mine track
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments | 0 Likes
This week’s issue of Famitsu provides an update on Team Sonic Racing. There’s only a little bit new, but we do learn about a previously-unannounced track: Doctor’s Mine. The track is said to be a wide stage where you don’t really have to worry about falling off, and there are plenty of jumps and tunnels that make for a high speed race.
Famitsu also goes over the recently-revealed Team Eggman. Metal Sonic is a speed type, Zavok is a power type, and Eggman is a technique type. They also tease the possibility of Dodonpa being somehow related to Team Eggman.

“I think if you play “Phantasy Star” after reading this interview, you’ll look at the game in a whole new light.”
-Naoki Horii, M2 Dev Team
Japanese website Game Watch recently sat down for an interview with three key figures from SEGA and M2 handling the SEGA AGES collection on Nintendo Switch.
The mega interview contains all kinds of details on new features to the Switch version, the incredible headaches that 80’s game development caused them, and never-before-heard stories from development of the original “Phantasy Star”, firsthand from Rieko Kodama, who was the original designer for the game. It’s a must-read for die-hard fans. And if that wasn’t enough, we’ve included some discussion about the SEGA Ages series in general that you may have missed last week (with some extra comments).
We’ve prepared an exclusive translation of the in-depth interview, and hope you enjoy.
