    Even after all these years, there's still tons of weird stories out there.

    The box art for (Western) Alien Storm was drawn by a man called Lee MacLeod. Nothing super unusual here - video game publishers (particularly in the US) rarely drew their covers in-house.

    But this is a new one to me - Mr. MacLeod made so much art that they were turned into trading cards. There were 60 of these, some of which were shiny-uh... "Tekchrome" cards.

    The Sheffield UK band did a collab song with Babymetal.

    About 0:30-0:40 in, he mentions graphics are on N64 level but "it could get as bad as Sega Saturn".

    After beating 2017's Cuphead I had a read of the (extensive) development history behind the game. We have the game listed on the wiki, but we're only scratching the surface - the brothers behind it grew up with a Sega Master System, and there's tons of Sega-inspired content in the final product.

    There's a (probably short-lived) watermarked mirror of The Art of Cuphead that details some of it.

    Something slightly different

    [​IMG]

    Sega Retro's TODO page has a list of "Sega articles in non-Sega magazines", but this January 2020 issue of "Modern Classics" is a gaming edition. And that means Sega Rally and OutRun.


    Apparently Jeremy Clarkson can beat Tiff Needell at Sega Rally. So there's a fact for you.

    Hey Death, looks like these image links died. Can you reupload them here, or just upload them to the wiki directly? :) I have a lot of my plate right now and it would help a lot. thanks!
