But he‘s probably even more of a billionaire puppet and might get even more backing from the likes of Peter Thiel and Elon Musk to make Trump’s version of MAGA seem like the radical left.

I‘m more uneasy about him tbh.

The cartridge holder has 6 slots but there are only 5 carts available, so there is hope for more.
I could not get the (PAL style) Altered Beast yet. I don‘t even like AB but I‘d like to complete the set.

It cost 50€ including shipping for the MD + #SonicTheHedgehog sets plus 20€ for #StreetFighter.

Das Problem ist dass leider ein überraschend großer Teil der Menschen hier der Digitalisierung skeptisch oder sogar explizit negativ gegenübersteht.

Ich habe so einige Kollegen, zwischen 40 und 55, denen schon jetzt zu viel digital ist und die so etwas nie freiwillig nutzen würden.

Sehe ich das richtig, dass Michelangelo eine blonde Perücke auf hat?😅

So Capcom scrapped that version which had previously been shown and started from scratch with the SCE that offered more than Turbo. And looked a lot better than the old CE port.
So even if details may be a bit off I think this fits with TTI also trying to make special deals with Capcom at the time.

There was a lot of fighting over SFII.
I don’t know the details but in 1993 a magazine claimed that the original, already done Champion Edition for MD was scrapped because SEGA had a deal for the current „best“ version but Capcom announced Turbo on SNES rendering the CE outdated before release.

So schlecht wie sein Ruf ist er nicht. Das kommt oft vom Online Schwarmwissen, genauso wie dass E.T. das schlechteste Game ever ist usw.

Aber toll ist die Konsole natürlich dennoch nicht. Hardware-Bugs, ein unergonomischer Controller und viele Spiele, die jeden Feinschliff vermissen lassen.

Yes, nice to see these are officially available in Europe at all after the 3 retro figures from last year were Walmart exclusives in the US.

I just ordered from coolshop. They only had the diorama and the Sonic 2 and 3 ones though.

Thanks for the info, I hadn’t heard of this. Pretty cool!
I also prefer the European MD branding personally. Not neccessarily because of the name but the logo just looks a lot more elegant and stylish.

Where are those figures and the display from? I am aware of the 3 figures from a few years ago with Axel from SoR, but Mr X and Death Bringer?

Gave 10$. Not much but it‘s what I can afford. Hope it helps.
November 9, 2025 at 7:58 AM
Yeah, I am not aware of any system holder forbidding a technical style for a game so I imagine this may be a bit of frustration and guessing from the dev.

I can understand it too because it looks impressive.

It was probably just the time, others didn’t find publishers either with the DS not far.
November 7, 2025 at 9:06 AM
So Nintendo was in talks to publish at some point? I mean if they were looking for another publisher I don’t see how Nintendo could and would halt the project.

Tut mir irgendwie immer leid, dass die CE so verramscht wird. Ist wirklich ein exzellentes Spiel, auch auf Konsole, muss aber wirklich gefloppt sein.

Allein schon der Name des Entwurfs zeigt was für ein unsäglicher Zirkus das inzwischen ist.

Alles muss ein Witz sein, alles muss andere Trollen. Den Feind zu triggern und auf sozialen Medien Aufmerksamkeit zu bekommen ist wichtiger als die Sinnhaftigkeit einer Maßnahme.

Alles ist verblödet.

But… they must have been aware of this other company existing when they bought the rights. They must have been aware there was still another claim to the name.
From the viewpoint of that other Commodore it’s understandable that they don‘t want someone else using the name.
November 6, 2025 at 8:02 AM
I never knew his name but I certainly know his face from various shows over the decades. Sadly the first thing that always comes to my mind is his guest role on the Cosby Show. Probably not the best moment in hindsight. ^^

Good to see he seems to be doing well and is active for good causes.

Wow, that´s genius! :D

The Oliver twins probably don’t care about gaming anymore and go the pragmatic route. It‘s easy money, and people will eventually accept it so better get into the AI slop while they still can.
It’s sad but I bet they are just sure this is an easy way to add to their fortunes.

People have come to treat art and entertainment like fast food. There is no respect for art. Be it a comic book, a movie or a video game… the AI made results are „good enough“ at a glance from an audience losing its ability to focus on anything for more than a few seconds anyway.
