There's a medal up for sale on YAJ from the original Apollo Vegas game center in Osaka. https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g1114258886 While I have a pretty extensive Sega medal collection, this is a bit expensive even for me, so I don't think I'll be bidding till it gets down to the JPY 20,000 range. Thankfully the seller took a bunch of pictures for documentation purposes if it disappears.
So I fell down a rabbit hole... I just uploaded this to the wiki: It's an ad for Amazing Island as well a contest in a magazine called "Boys' Life". What is Boys' Life? It's the official magazine of the Boy Scouts of America (now called Scout's Life since 2021 because girls can be in the Boy Scouts now) and has been around since 1911. Google Books has every issue for the first 100 years so I randomly chose Jul 2004 because Amazing Island released the month after in August. This ad isn't in that issue, but you know what is? LOTS of video game ads and even a blurb on Sonic Heroes as well as an ensemble Gamecube ad that has F-Zero GX on it. I don't like to think, but we need to pinpoint that ad plus there are over 100 years worth of magazines to go through simply because they do have video game coverage, even if it may be small.
I finally had the time to sit down and sift through all the magazine articles of Alaab Alcomputtar i uploaded, and i'm unsure of something i saw so i wonder if anyone here would know more. So its known that a bunch of Psygnosis were gonna be ported to the Saturn, one of them was a port of Novastorm, BUT it was cancelled and the only info about it on the wiki is one singular article from a magazine. Which brings me to what i want to ask It allegedly states that the pictures are "snapshots of what the Saturn Version of Scavanger 4 looks like, with its red background". Are these the only screenshots of the supposed saturn version anywhere?
The voice actors situation is gonna need sorting at some point, and unfortunately, probably by someone who can do mass text replacement across pages. We're starting to accumulate some voice actor pages on Sega Retro, while also having pages for loads of those same actors on Sonic Retro from years ago. Cindy Robinson vs Cindy Robinson Jun'ichi Kanemaru vs Junichi Kanemaru (also surely his page name should be Jun-ichi Kanemaru when that's how most of his credts are spelled, then it won't get clogged up with 33 "(as Jun-ichi Kanemaru)" mentions. Just 9 (as Junichi Kanemaru) mentions) Deem Bristow vs Deem Bristow Patrick Seitz vs Patrick Seitz (whose photo is on CDN) and another dozen conflicts Sega Retro seems a better home for them at the moment since it's where production credits are going, but I don't know how many of those actors' photos are on RetroCDN or Sonic Retro.
Most of the photos will be on Sonic Retro, and I've been too lazy to move things across. Only sysops can do mass text replaces, but if anyone wants any done (on any wiki), maintain a list somewhere and we'll get to things eventually. It also handles regular expressions if you want something more complicated.
I'll add a list on my user page, categorise it by who's got just Sonic roles, who's got Sonic and Sega roles, and if I find any, who's got NEC roles. EDIT: Added the list The "also credited as" should help, knowing all the different names to mass change so they direct towards pages.
I've drafted up the full credits for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (closest to game release I've ever done it), but saw that it came with two "Maximum number of loops have been performed" errors, so I know they won't get sent to the cargo query. I've only come across that error a couple times. Flicky has it on a couple spots and Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis/Credits has 3. If there are more I don't know them or can't remember, nor do I know how to look for them. I never asked about this loops error, so never found out what to do to fix/get around it. I've only got very basic knowledge of loops, so can I get some help?

I was wondering when that might happen. There's a failsafe in the wiki software to protect against infinite loops - after x number of loops are performed, it stops and errors. That threshold is too low on Sega Retro (I've mentioned this to the higher-ups before) - it's not your fault, and I'd add the credits anyway with the view that it might work one day. (yes this is a running theme with these wikis) "but where are the loops??" it's all to do with storing the credits. The algorithm iterates through every line, and iterates through every person credited on each line. And because you've also specified four systems, it's doing this process four times. So if there are thousands of people credited, that's a lot of loop iterations. I'm not sure there's a way around that (Hivebrain???) - if we could get the processing done on the SQL side it might be quicker, but I don't think that's an option(???)
Okay slight correction because turns out I was "lazy" when I wrote creditstable: There's no loop on consoles - it's hard-coded to only care about the first two (so you'd only get PS4 and PS5). So for this line Code (Text): *'''Program Supervisors:''' [[Tomoaki Nakamura]], [[Yusuke Sekine]] it should be doing 1) Store Tomoaki Nakamura (PS4) 2) Store Tomoaki Nakamura (PS5) 3) Store Yusuke Sekine (PS4) 4) Store Yusuke Sekine (PS5) (i.e. no Xbox One or Steam) the assumption would have been that you're not going to have 9352082340432 versions of a game with exactly the same credits. But of course you will. So the loops are just "every line" and "every person on a line". Which means the list of credits is too big for the software with its current settings. The max loop threshold used to be higher and is the most elegant fix. We could unroll some of these loops... but then they're at risk of being even less maintainable. And not necessarily as performant. On the plus side, anything before it hits the maximum loop threshold should be processed normally. So some of the credits will come through.
Thanks for the help Black Squirrel and Hivebrain! But it seems 3000 is still too low a limit for Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis/Credits. There's just the 1 error message instead of the previous 3, though. That game's values are really getting bogged down by all the song credits.
Might as well write it down - I was filling in some blanks with Krusty's Fun House this morning, and spotted this wacky advertisement on the back of the Game Gear manual: https://segaretro.org/index.php?title=File:KFH_gg_us_manual.pdf&page=26 I really don't know what version of the game this is. It most resembles the NES version, but there are graphical differences and more importantly, a mangled HUD Remember that classic Simpsons episode with the "-OD-1353A985 G20" AND THE "-10-0053A99C G20"? They don't write them like they used to. Marge in a red dress? Good job they fixed that in the fin- oh.
Did I mention the SEGA Interactive R&D divisions when I was doing a lot of page work on those a month or two ago? Not sure, but I'm at it again for a bit. Sega Games CS Studio 3 Only got one down, although CS Studio #1 and CS Studio #2 stuff are in the works, but I felt I understood CS Studio #3 well enough today. It's a weird one to start with since, unlike CS Studio #1, their English name's not got an online record i know of to reference, so here's the CS Studio #1 evidence Annual Report Business Card Both SEGA Interactive and SEGA Games have obscure elements to them that can be confusing for most people. For Interactive, it was R&D3 being a thing again, but also a brand new R&D4. For SEGA Games, it's the CS Studio #3 timeline, and when they changed their names to be the 4 divisions. That happened maybe a year after the third CS Studio was closed (2017 vs 2018), and nearly 6 years later, we've still got mostly the same system based on those interviews from last year, at least on the console/PC/mobile side. =Div. #1 is still Ryu ga Gotoku Studio [prev. CS Studio #1] proof once twice thrice =Div. #2 is still Sonic Team [prev. CS Studio #2] proof once twice (also it was mentioned in the CSR Booklet 2019 as Jun Senoue's department, which is the closest I've come to finding official English names for these places, but the file for that translation is lost) =Div. #3 is still the PSO team [prev. Online R&D] proof once twice thrice =Div. #4 is still the main mobile developer [not sure I've come across their predecessor before, in-between Div. #4 and Sega Networks. The current state of Retro would suggest Online R&D] proof once
Filling in some blanks and came across a quirk of history: Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles features a playable Mace Windu. In the first film, Mace Windu spends most of his time sitting down, so if you're going to make him playable in a video game, you have to make a choice: ... it was the wrong choice. Mace Windu, known for having a purple lightsaber, doesn't have a purple lightsaber in this game... because it pre-dates the decision to give him a purple lightsaber. There's a couple of action figures that do this too (and wacky people have tried to work it into the canon), but this is this is the most prominent case of blue lightsaber Mace Windu in the history of the franchise. Not that it makes the game much more interesting, but it's a thing (though not a new one). Although the award still goes to Constable Zuvio, who appears in all sorts of Force Awakens merchandise... but not the film itself, because his scenes were cut.
Does Mickey Mouse entering the public domain have any implications for Sega's on-again-off-again relationship with Castle of Illusion? Probably not, but I thought it was an interesting thought to ponder. Traveller's Tales could probably publish the first level of Mickey Mania without Disney's consent, but that's probably about it.
It's only Mickey's first appearance as Steamboat Willie that went public domain, not his 90's design used in either game.
And even ignoring that, remaking "Castle of Illusion" in any capacity means waiting for Castle of Illusion itself to enter public domain - even if the design of the character was public domain, other elements of the game won't be for a long time yet.
Yeah, I was talking more about how Sega needs to renew the license whenever they want to re-publish Castle of Illusion, which seems a little awkward now that the character is partly public domain.
Does something like this exist for the Game Gear, anything unofficial on AliExpress or some kind of 3D printer model project?
