Discussion SEGABOARDS General Discussion Thread |ST19 April 2023| SEGABOARDS does what Nindendon't

WestEgg said:
Oh Kalinski was definitely a good business man, and I was admittedly posting this to contribute to Sega Centric discourse. But I do think Michael Katz is somewhat underrated in terms of what he did while Kalinski is seen as hero, and a lot of that comes down to the Console Wars book and some other material, and he really did do a lot of the things that helped Sega during the Genesis era.

He is for sure underrated and while yeah Kalinski made a lot of bad choices and decisions but I feel like he gets a bit too much hate considering he pretty much oversaw Sega's most successful period at any time in any country console wise. Katz would likely had been similarly handtied into incredibly difficult situations had he been in the same position.

I'm just gonna say it, Michael Katz laid the groundwork for what really made the Genesis become successful in the U.S., and Tom Kalinski benefitted massively from good timing with Sonic.

Beneifitted? I gave Nintendo a run for their money and forced them to live with actual competition.
 
What the hell is happening and why does it smell like chili cheese dogs around here!?
 
I feel like if you took a poll of every American and you asked "Is the Bare Naked Ladie's 'One Week' a song on the Shrek Soundtrack, likely 92% of respondents would answer yes

Even though it isn't there, it is, spiritually. An honorary Shrek soundtrack song.
 
ya know, the frequency with which I tend to Yeah! stuff has turned this into a really fun evening.
 
Just got the final mission of chapter 13 of scarlet Blaze in FEWTH left. But it’s time to go up in the loft and chill down with TGAA2

Looking forward to the next sega direct. Where sega will finally announce that sonic had always been a bad ip and a shit character.

They will announce Wonder Boy as their new mascot.

Along with the Skies of Arcadia 2 and Phantasy Star 5.

Did anyone see that trailer for Ocarina of Time IGN just released? No way something that good is fake.

You know what? I believe this

I also pose an open question to all because my girlfriend and I regularly have this debate and we can never come to a proper conclusion: Discounting All-Star, does Shrek or Shrek 2 have the better soundtrack?

I'm howling at the notion of all the people who don't realize this is a theme that they can turn off at any time and so they'll just wait it out

Sonic was murdered so we are in mourning as SegaBoards. Can’t even think about visiting websites at a time like this.
 
A change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the forum looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last console war
I'll tip my hat to the new Constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my keyboard and post shit
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again, no, no
 
wow wow wow... I am back to the 90s and my sega genesis is still rocking!

Love the memories! This looks like all geosites and weird internet gaming forums I used to visit back in the early 2000s.

What is your favorite SEGA memory?

I wanted to say “playing Yakuza 0 for the first time” but honestly it’s not that, it’s visiting SegaWorld Sydney. Peak 90s design, a whole lot of cool stuff, and a very terrifying beheading simulator.
 
It'd be cool if the next Sega Direct announced the Team Sonic Racing Booster Course Pass and brought a bunch of tracks back from the past Sonic racing games.

All the props to the people who designed the board today!
 
Clicked on the "Segaboards" icon at the top left to go back to the forum homepage and nearly had a heart attack, lol
