The SEGAGuys

Showered with a library of Sega content, the SEGAGuys discuss the Xbox 360, its retro credentials, its place among the greatest consoles and, of course, its selection of Sega games.

Welcome to the FOURTH season of The SEGAGuys and what a way to kick things off! Two of our former guests return, but this time … together! In what is a retro gaming podcast first, Tom Kalinske and Al Nilsen on screen talking SEGA at the same time.

In this episode we take a chronological look at the history of 3D fighting games on the SEGA Saturn. Despite being renowned as a "2D powerhouse", the Saturn did have a wealth of great (and some not so great!) 3D beat-em-ups from the arcade and beyond. In part 1, we look at the more commercial releases, look at their impact, discuss their gameplay pros and cons, and look forward to part 2 where we'll cover the more obscure Japanese only 3D fighters.

Greetings SEGA fans! On this weeks show we take a look at the first 5 of many Amiga games which made their way to the Mega Drive. James gives his insight into how these games looked and played on the Amiga, while Dan provides the Mega Drive perspective on this unique cross-over episode.

On this episode we sit down with Tom Charnock, the original "Dreamcast Guy" and founder of the number one Dreamcast fan site; The Dreamcast Junkyard. We discuss the Junkyard's origins, Tom's history with SEGA, his favourite SEGA games, and much, much more.

It's our 50th episode! Join us as we recall our personal top 5 moments in 3 years doing the show, as well as discuss our top 5 SEGA games and have some laughs along the way.

In this special episode we are honoured to be joined by the former CEO of SEGA of America and corporate vice-president of Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business division at the launch of Xbox 360; its none other than Peter Moore. We chat about Peter's SEGA journey, the fate of the Dreamcast, the crossover point with Xbox, the games that could have been, the move to Xbox and much, much more in this packed hour of SEGAGuys goodness.

In this episode we provide a (hopefully!) helpful guide to picking up our favourite SEGA console in 2023. From console revisions and ODE's to PSU's and affordable games, we've got you covered. Whether you're thinking about re-acquiring a Saturn or looking to pick one up for the first time, let us guide you and answer any questions you may have.

In this episode, we discuss the potential impact of the 4MB RAM cartridge (and it's 1MB little brother) had they come to the West along with the various fighting classics that accompanied them.

The SEGAGuys return for their third RadioSEGA WinterFest event as we discuss the history of the freebie that put a smile on every new Saturn owners face on Christmas morning; the SEGA demo disc!

We discuss the contents of SEGA Flash Vol. 1 to 7, delve into two discs that were more than just demos, and tell you about the Saturn Power discs that are now the only trace two unreleased Saturn games ever existed at all.
