      I too had the US launch model. It had a lot of cool stuff with it. Sega Classics (Golden Axe, Revenge of Shinobi, Columns, and Streets of Rage), Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective Vol. 1, Sol-Feace, a CD+G disc, and a music CD came with it. It was my very first CD player and it blew me away.

    Did you know that the critical acclaim Sega Genesis/Mega Drive Disney's Aladdin Virgin planned to do a Sega CD/Mega CD port of the game but unfortunately the planned was scraped. Had that version been made it would had featured red audio soundtrack similar to the PC versions, better graphics, few extra levels, and possibly in-game cut scenes between levels using footage from the film itself to drive the story forward in the game.

      I don't really think so... I explain now the reason. Sega 32X actually, did not really missed killer applications, specially if you consider the small amount of time the platform been on market.
      The real problem of the console it was Sega itself...
      They decided to concern on Saturn games development, because 32X has a very noticeable launch succes... But first Sega of America indeed decided to concern in those idiots kind of laser games indeed and that was also part of the blame of the collapse of the machine, but i don't think Sega 32X been took out of the market because of the fail , but really Sega choosed to try Console war against Sony, instead supporting 32X ... But if we carefully analyse the software available for the machine, between the sea of those ugly "digital graphic" , there were more than a bunch of very solid attractive games.
      You cannot underrated Virtua Fighter and Virtua Racing, which were both big killer app... A lot of people don't appreciate "Chaotix", wich was for me a very good piece of software and still my favourite Sonic spin off of all time.
      If you think carefully to the fact that the console is been on the market for less than 2 years, it is not that bad... Another title that come on my mind, is also Kolibri.
      32x has sold enough units for being more support, they simply took the decision to support massive Sega Saturn instead.
      But ... They consider more the fact that Sega of America ruined already a bit the path of the machine, than the real amount of units they sold

I would have loved to see more 32X and CD based 32X games. I'm thinking I might look for an original 32X CD release of surgical strike and the other 3 cartridge 32X games that went unreleased here

  • @yuvraj01
    @yuvraj01 7 років тому +4

    For an add-on, and for what it was the Mega CD/Sega CD sold quite well all things considered, if the 32x was out for as long as the Mega CD was it would have probably also been a moderate success..but then it would really have needed to have come out in 1991/early 1992 to stand a chance...what is surprising is the fact that the 32x was meant to be Sega's answer to the upcoming Jaguar but that was no deadly cat..and didn't exactly rip the competition to pieces..

    • @onaretrotip
      @onaretrotip  7 років тому

      That's where they went wrong - they should have released the Mega CD as a standalone console, and the successor to the Mega Drive. The Jaguar hardly made a dent here in the UK, I never saw anyone who owned one. Having said that, I only knew one guy in school who had a Mega CD (and there were a lot of rich people at my school), and never came across a 32X until my adult life.

    • @yuvraj01
      @yuvraj01 7 років тому +1

      Exactly combine the 32x and Mega CD technology into one, in 1991/1992 you would have been leading the pack with the system like that...which would then pave the way clear for the Saturn in 1995...instead they messed up completely..

      Thanks, Alex! Yeah, a shame in some cases, but some were definitely better left unreleased. The Capcom beat 'em ups especially would have been great. It's definitely all about the games for me. Look at the Vita - the hardware is amazing, but it can't compete with the 3DS as the games are so good.

  • @MaxAbramson3
    @MaxAbramson3 2 роки тому +2

    For the Sega CD: Daytona USA, Virtua Racing, and Virtua Fighter would've looked cool, even with the limited 3300 flat shaded polygons/sec. At 30fps, that's still 110 polygons, or 55 polygons per character, just barely enough to be recognizable, but still good. Doom could've used the built in scaling and rotation of floors and ceilings similar to what we see in BC Racer, while Toy Story showed that Z-constant rendering of textured walls was possible on the Genesis. In fact, the 32X addon wasn't needed because the M2 mode on the Sega CD, the nearly 1MB of RAM, extra 12MHz 68EC000, and dedicated scaling and rotation hardware on the Sega CD was powerful enough to bring some of the best arcade games of the early to mid-90s home with the great music and sound effects of the Sega CD.

    Space Junk (Imagitec Design) after 7 months work, project hit serious issues.
    Downgrading 16 million colour images to 16 colors to suit the Mega CD display resulted in blurred animation, so images rendered in 12 Grey scale tones instead.
    Only 10 of the live action characters had been filmed, game was to feature 60.
    60 characters meant 60 masks and costumes, each mask molded to fit a specific person.
    Not everyone from Imagitec wanted to under go the moulding process for the moulds, as they took half a day to fit and once moulds removed they took with them bits of hair and skin from person wearing them.
    Imagitec hoped to film 3 a week

    • @todesziege
      @todesziege 6 років тому

      TB46667 - The Golden Age Gamer: Those games are awesome, but the Sega CD wouldn't have had the power to do most of them wihout being severly cut down. The system - and the CD format itself - wasn't really suited for that kind of fast-paced arcade action. It would have been great to see ports on the 32X though, and maybe if it had been better marketed it could have survived long enough for that to happen.
      Elgoog: The CD really suffered due to the color palette not being extended, making FMV as well as cutscenes or computer CD-ROM ports look poor. It still wouldn't have had the 3D capabilities or extra speed of the 32X though.
      The 32X wasn't a terrible idea if you view it as an alternative to the SNES' SuperFX chip, but it wasn't really marketed like that. Having to only buy the hardware upgrade once instead of paying for it with each game that utilized it would have been a good deal for the consumer, but the 32X didn't have games with the same pull as Star Fox or Yoshi's Island. Maybe if Virtua Fighter had come out on time... It probably should have been cheaper though, even if it meant scaling back its power somewhat, and for some reason it didn't even come with a pack-in game.

    Of course, the irony here is that both the MegaCD and 32x, in the late 90s and early 00s (long before ebay) couldn't be given away free. Whereas today, thanks to ebay, both systems (Boxed) are fetching similar money to what they were originally selling for. I got my MegaCd and 32x in late 99/00, for around £20. And in both instances, the sellers were perplexed why I would want them considering everyone wanted a Playstation, or a Dreamcast. Who's laughing now ? Especially considering both are now worth nearly 20x what I paid for them - around £200 each.

    I don't care about Captain Commando since early CD systems aren't arcade-friendly (mostly due to the loading times which can be a pain but also the sound, I want that awesome Mega Drive sound when I play games like Hellfire, Mercs or Snow Bros!). The few exceptions are, obviously, laserdisc arcade games such as Road Blaster FX or Time Gal which were perfectly suited for the Mega-CD.
    And so, the canceled Mega-CD games that I wish became reality are:
    - Dark Seed
    - Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
    - Super Star Wars (with improved resolution/audio + maybe added cutscenes and exclusive stage(s) over the SNES version)
    - Ys IV: Mask of the Sun (again could have benefited of improved resolution/audio and also more cutscenes, voice acting...)
    About the 32X, it's a different story because for me, the [Mega Drive + Mega-CD] combo represents the core while the 32X is more of an external oddball which "feels" different and wasn't that well designed even though it's still an interesting piece of hardware. And here, the main canceled 32X game that I wish turned real is Castlevania the Bloodletting. Maybe also Virtua Hamster (under a different name though), X-Men and Jet Ski Rage.

    • @onaretrotip
      @onaretrotip  7 років тому

      I would have just been happy to see ports of Capcom arcade games (like AVP and Cadillacs & Dinosaurs) on any system to be honest; they would have been great on the Saturn as its 2D capabilities are so good. I never played the Mega CD much back in the day, and didn't play a 32X until about five years ago! Ys IV would have been interesting on the Mega CD.

    • @ryzmaker11
      @ryzmaker11 7 років тому +1

      Ys IV would have been perfectly suited for the Mega-CD and more likely would have been the definitive version as often with multiplats on the system (Popful Mail, Eye of the Beholder, Wolfchild, Puggsy, FIFA...).
      As for these beat 'em ups, yeah, Saturn would have been the way to go but sadly beat 'em ups started to fade in popularity around that time.
      Personally I never played the Mega-CD back then but it was my N°1 fantasm! For Silpheed and Lunar the Silverstar in particular. And when I finally experienced the Mega-CD myself, I wasn't disappointed, I actually started with Bari-Arm and it was a blast! And the joy kept going with Keio Flying Squadron, Popful Mail, Silpheed, Ecco the Dolphin... And Lunar the Silverstar, this game is pure love, no wonder it has such a cult following.
      I just wish more Mega-CD games were released, especially from Sega but also from Tecno Soft or Treasure, when you see what they managed to do with the Mega Drive, I'd have been curious to see their outputs on the Mega-CD.

      I still wonder if the MCD ports of Strider, Forgotten Worlds and Ghouls'n Ghosts that Mean Machines SEGA reported on back in the day at the same time as Captain Commando ever actually existed or were planned at all.
