Sega Saturn
Sports
Well crafted kick around with four player mode a scream, although as such unlikely to be contributing much to the Respect campaign. Utilises world teams and the game engine has a good balance of arcade feel with varied goal scoring.
Dreamcast
Sports
Sega Rally really captured the reason why fans spend their Sunday mornings avoiding careering vehicles in off-the-beaten-track forests: power sliding round hairpin bends with wheels spinning to kick out on the home straight. Sublime.
Sega Saturn
Sports
A tasty piece of programming making the PlayStation eat humble pie. Crisp graphics running a a high frame rate truly brought the arcade experience home. But gameplay is what counts – the developer’s extensive rally car physics research oozes from every powerslide.
Sega Hardware
Cable
AV cable for the older and newer models of the Sega Saturn. Very versatile and from a stable with a good retro history.

The height of kitsch which every self respecting otaku shouldn’t be without. Even comes with a stop watch rest. Infinitely adds to the realism when playing Densha De Go on the Saturn.

Very solid production values in this licensed Hori crafted arcade stick with coin – op style button layout and turbo repeat dip switches. A real intuitive joy to behold on SF II and any fighting title with the buttons just where you need them.

Keep your tablet or indeed Sega Saturn in spic and span condition with this fine design cloth. Segata Sanshiro became a cult hero in the fight for the Saturn’s domination and he is well worthy of preserving in the Saturn hall of fame in this cloth. Can be framed for the true fanatic.

Sega Hardware

Compatible with the likes of Wing Arms, Soviet Strike, Black Fire… The Mission Stick brings the flight of fancy to such airbourne titles and really adds the extra dimension to the gameplay. If you thought Desert Strike got a bit hairy with a joypad, try using the Mission Stick to finish Soviet Strike. Sega once more shows its supreme love of its fan base in making this stick switchable between left and right sides. Bravo! Also has a turbo fire feature and thumb throttle.
Sega Hardware
Accessory
Bold venture at the time from Sega to get gamers online for virtual stand offs on Virtua Fighter Remix which is included in the pack. Also included are the Sega Saturn Internet Vol. 1 disk to boot up and Pad Nifty which helped the Saturn communicate with PCs. Not wishing to treat it as the Holy Grail, but quite a rare find and a very collectable curio.
Sega Hardware
Controller
Very slick, off white controller which can have the angle adjusted to suit your set up. Makes race titles far more enjoyable as your car power slides into pole position. Re release as the initial release was in black.
Sega Hardware
Cable
Tasty, tried and tested, custom built RGB scart cable for the Sega Saturn to enjoy a fine picture on an NTSC capable television. Put together with some serious competence and a steady, steady hand.

Nail your Sega colours to the mast with this fine tribute to the much loved console. The straps were released by Sega Direct to be attached to phones or keychains. Retro chic at its highest.
Sega Hardware

Spacious and well laid out with turbo feature bringing you closer to Sonic Team and AM2 than ever before.

Tidy spare pad in the white design with multicoloured buttons. Well designed feeling snug in the hand even when in the tightest of shmup corners facing a barrage of shrapnel.
Famicom Cart
Action
Players ride on bikes like the speeders from Return of the Jedi and try to knock opponents into the on screen traps, such as laser beams. The speeder also has a gun to shoot itself as the screen forces the battle onwards.

Incredibly detailed and beautifully painted figure for those who want to pay homage to the Legend of Mana and its fantasy RPG theme. Japanese figures really do set the bar high with the incredible production values.

Very bizarre role playing game looking like it was inspired by Little Big Adventure with plenty of psychedelic happenings. The graphical style and gaming style is perfectly suited to the cult hero Dreamcast.

Classical Chinese setting for this adventure complete with a senior gentleman who wouldn’t look out of place in the Zu Warriors from the Magic Mountains. The towns look delightful and the music suitably classy.
