So, we’ve been scouting around to find out what were the top 5 selling Sega Genesis/Mega Drive games. The sales figures for the 5 games below are over a staggering 29,000,000 units, not bad going for a 16 bit console that lurked in the shadow on the Nintendo Entertainment System.
SEGA has announced Fearless: Year of Shadow, a campaign that celebrates Sonic the Hedgehog and his brooding acquaintance, Shadow.
GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.
The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."
Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.
It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.
Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol
Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
Nice!!!! Finally an interesting article without the nonsense. All great games on that list. I can't believe Street Figher Championship Edition isn't there. I remember how crazy people got when it was announced for the Genesis.
Numbers 1 and 2, I was like "yeah, that's obvious". Then I got to #3 and was like "WTF???".
alladin was actually a damn good game, was talking about it with someone just yesterday. would love to see that put up on the psn
Meh I played Dune, Contra, and Jungle Strike... Aahh the memories *sheds a tear*
I loved Tazmania, sonic 3, & Ren & Stimpy for genesis.. TJ & E was great too.. Zombies ate my neighbors, altered beast, Jurassic Park & a few others i cant remember are still in my box of ancient tech..
