WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILD WOODY

>>9406375
But fourchannelers told me SEGA failed because of SoJ while SoA never did anything wrong?

>>9406416
Nah they lost because Sony and Nintendo had better games.

the mario killer...

Sega of Japan without America.

Kids went Wild for Woody, at the time.

Wild Woody is one of those failed 90's mascots that definitely deserved to take off

He's a crazy talking pencil with attitude, how the hell do you fuck that up?

>>9406571
move over Vexx, i say

>>9406573
The gameplay concept is kind of cool. Being able to create and erase objects is an idea that has appeared in other games. But everything else about Wild Woody is not amazing. I think it would have more camp/ironic factor if it was actually good, but it isn't.

>>9406375
Didn't this game have tits in it?

Don't mind the voiceover.

>>9406550
given the timeframe it was released, it was more of a DKC killer

>>9406816
Now that is just mean to stack it up against DKC.

>>9406821
Miyamoto would praise Wild Woody if it meant to shit on DKC

>>9406416
this is true though, Sega of Japan went full retard mode

>>9406550
move over, mario...

Still crazy to think former SoA employees keep shilling for their decade old jobs on this site of all places.

>>9406375
WEEEELLLL A YO HO HO AND A YUPPITY DUM
MY IQ IS VERY LOW, I'M A PIRATE AND I'M DUMB

>>9406375
Yeah they're based as fuck

>>9406991
>bernieposter was just some faggot sucking up to his old boss
wild

>>9406991
SoA employees are all just Federal agents in way

>>9406375
It still has better games than the Saturn. Reminder that Japan never got the SEGA CD versions of Snatcher, Lords of Thunder, The Space Adventure, or The Terminator.

>Snatcher, Lords of Thunder, The Space Adventure
Those were all on PC Engine though. Snatcher has some extra stuff though, if you're willing to tolerate the mid-tier English voice acting.

Dungeon Explorer on the Sega CD was a completely different game though, and has no Japanese Mega CD equivalent.

>>9409060
The sega cd is certainly great and underappreciated. But it doesn't have nearly enough good shoot 'em ups, arcade ports, or fighting games to really surpass the saturn.

>>9409082
Do home consoles really need arcade ports, though? The same thing that made Saturn a huge success in Japan is what kind of killed it in the west. It's an interesting thing to think about. Probably a mix of both like what the PS1 had would've been a lot better

it all makes sense now

"5000 polygons is plenty. Who could need more?, also who cares about the chip architecture? Doesn't everyone code in assembly anyway?"

> sees PS1 leak

"OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT WHAT CAN WE THROW TOGETHER AT THE LAST SECOND?!"

They're a good way to kickstart a console. Worked for the Genesis and the Dreamcast.
It could've worked for the Saturn if they leveraged some of the great 3D talent they had with Yu Suzuki at AM2 (at the console development stage) but Sato didn't care.

Crapcom USA pretending to be japanese

>>9406375
On April 27, 1995 Sega of America wanted it's employees to bring their daughters to work.
They advertised this to the public, and utilized a strange circled symbol on the banners.

>>9409524
I get the feeling Fred Durst logged in, maybe, twice (one for the marketing campaign) and never touched online gaming again until Modern Warfare 4 was released, because "everyone else is playing it, bro".

>>9409060
>It still has better games than the Saturn.
Not even the biggest Mega CD fanboy would say something as retarded. Come on.

>>9406375
>>9406560
Sega of Japan and America

>>9411468
Yeah well it's his way or the highway, give him something to break, chainsaw skin your ass raw, etc.

>>9409060
>Snatcher, Lords of Thunder, The Space Adventure, or The Terminator.

because 3 of the 4 were on pc engine anyway
