so excited to ejaculate all my money at 3D Galaxy Force II next Thursday.
I'm looking forward to it immensely. I only have the Saturn version which, while good, really isn't up to scratch. The 3DS version looks perfect, though.

After Burner, Out Run and Thunder Blade arcade though are likely. TB is not a brilliant game by Sega's standards, but it's fun enough, and the layered scaling is just begging to be shown off in 3D.

NH: Interesting that Sonic survived the cut then.
YO: Once we’d decided to restore SEGA titles with stereoscopic 3D, I actually wanted to do some home console games as well. So when M2 and the North American and European SEGA staff decided on the lineup of games for the 3D Remaster series, which included Space Harrier and Super Hang-on, and removed Thunder Blade (laughs), Sonic was one of the titles on the list.
Shadow Dancer.
I became a lifelong fan of M2 when playing their glorious PS3 port of Daytona USA. The subsequent PSN Sega games were all ported with obvious love as well. These 3DS games just cement their dedication to their art.
Still not sure if I should buy Sonic.
I've never played Thunder Blade but was surprised to learn a few years back they released a toy with the same name, a toy i had and loved as a kid! I actually made a site about the toyline here
Thank you! I used to play the hell out of this game, I'd love a handheld version of it.
Clearly I'm not up to scratch with my Shinobi knowledge. Is 3 generally considered the best one, which is why it was perhaps chosen?

Yeah I hope people check out the 3D effects on the rasterized parts of the game. People who were really impressed with the raster scrolling effect back then would love it. For those who have played the MegaDrive release, its kind of like a treasure hunt trying to find spots that are different from the original
What do they mean when they talk about the "rasterized parts of the game" (Sonic) in the interview with M2?
Sonic looks great on 3DS. I think i'll buy Hang-On next.
What do people think Season 2 would look like?
As someone who isn't too familiar with the different versions of the original Sonic the Hedgehog, what's are the differences between the Japanese and International versions?
Here's my list:
- Bonanza Brothers 3D

The only ports I played on the PS3 was the Backbone stuff. I still have nightmares about when I turned on the smoothing option for 30 seconds out of curiosity *shudder*
Definitely looking out for more M2 stuff now though, these ports are the best.
Moving clouds in Green Hill Zone, and similar stuff like that. Japanese is better.
If you have the Taxman version on Mobile, don't bother. The 3-D effects are nice,the quality of the port is very good and it includes the spindash, but do you really need another copy of Sonic 1? The only reason I bought it is because the port of Space Harrier 3D was so damn good.
(was going to buy the Saturn version...still might at some point)
Anyone know if they are they planning on doing interviews for all of the games? SoR is my favorite out of the first batch and I'd love to read about it.
Nice review ! I enjoyed reading it. Also, that was the final push which made me cave in and buy the game, so thank you !
I just picked up 3D Sonic.
Holy shit, M2 are gods of emulation. This is perfect. I've been playing with the 3D set to pop-out, looks a bit better to me. But I'm seriously impressed, the menu options they give you are ridiculous. What does model 1 vs model 2 Genesis emulation even change?!
It changes which PSG chip (sound chip) it emulates. There were two. I'm just going to link you to this video rather than explain it myself.
Oh, yeah, and 3D Sonic is tits.
Is it, SonicMegaDrive? Are you sure, SonicMegaDrive? Do you really think so, SonicMegaDrive?
I'd kill for Thunderblade.
But if we're gonna do some crazy portbegging then allow me to lay my dick on the table.
Backbone can go die in a fire. Desecrating classic games with their input lag and their blur filters and their unnecessary feature-removing menus and bullshit.
You should check out Capcom Arcade Cabinet if you like old Capcom arcade games. M2 did a great job on that.
Streets of Rage is tempting me although I hate the 3DS, Decisions Decisions...
Well, if you hate the 3DS then no 3D port of SoR is gonna make the system better. Save your money and get the M2 port on PS360.
No buttons and d-pad makes it a curiosity. But in no way should it be included in any list. Good lord.
I suck at Hang-On. I'm trying and trying and I still can't even beat the beginner course. I think I made it to about 5 seconds away from the goal, but that was the best I could ever do.
Still I'm really enjoying it, only ever played a few games of the Mega Drive version at a friend's house back in the day, so this is the first time I'm actually playing for a longer time.
