One of the most underrated music in Mega Drive, from the same team they did the music in Assault Suit Leynos, Super Hydlide and the Ninja Gaiden prototype.
Big mechs, cool anime-style cutscenes, and some lean and mean tactical turn-based action with character permadeath to take into consideration.
Fan translated in 2016 - well worth a playthrough, especially by Langrisser fans.

I see I've been a bit inactive around here, so I'm going to post some random photos of my Sega Saturn.

Saw another "Sega Saturn doesn't do real 3D" in the wild and what all do we have to do to shut that down? Where is that coming from? It's completely false.

This is completely true and it's rather hilarious that an emulator made mainly for debugging and TAS is more user friendly than RetroArch
Seeing a growing number of people tired of wrestling with the eldritch octopus of emuation that is Retroarch.
Don't mistake a glossy UI for usability. It's a mess.
For general usage, Bizhawk covers most systems while also being small and easy to use. A simple, clean window that plays old games.

Raspberry Pi Pico Sega mod update: with one more wire, it can now skip TMSS too. As well as true region changing, 50/60 hz with dual frequency oscillator, overclocking and in-game reset button combo. All off of a plain Pico that can be had for less than a few bucks.

GEMS is often cited as the reason for many Western MD soundtracks sounding bad but trust me, GEMS is a solid driver and there are much worse things like this, I think without GEMS many soundtracks would have sounded even worse: youtu.be/GJhy4pR6ZHo?...

whatever your preference, both beat the N64
Sony PlayStation and SEGA Saturn.
32-Bit legends loved by the Retro Gaming community. The PS1 was much more popular, but the Saturn gained a cult following.
Both are great in their own way with an amazing library of games.
Which do YOU prefer, and why?

Tec Toy completely skipped the Mega CD Model 1, they went straight for the Model 2 and it is identical to the American one even in its name instead of keeping the original as Mega Drive, which does not surprise me, the Tec Toy consoles are based on the American consoles.
Welcome to the Next Level: Mega Drive II+SCD 🔥

The Mega CD port is a combination of graphics from the Amiga version but with the content from the MS-DOS CD version (FMV scenes and voice acting), interestingly the music is pure YM2612 FM, HERAD was ported to the Z80 and OPN2 and in my opinion, it sounds great.
The evocative interpretations of the Dune universe and the people and technology of Arrakis as seen in Cryo's Dune game released in 1992 for Commodore Amiga and DOS PC - and in 1993 for Mega CD.
The Amiga OCS/ECS version is pictured here, with wonders being performed with 32 or fewer colours.

Mark Miller best work on Mega Drive/Genesis, one of the creators of GEMS, may he rest in peace.
Judgement Day and Skynet? It's all indirectly Robocop's fault. Who knew.

Back in 1995, when region locking was the norm for Mega Drive and Genesis games, The Adventures of Batman and Robin that I just got is a clear exception, running fine on my Japanese MD.

This is a really good conversion of the Neo Geo soundtrack, at least Super Street Fighter 2 had to sound like this but unfortunately it sounds worse than the launch games and both are cases where the original soundtrack is just samples.
While we're on this, the Genesis version of Fatal Fury 2 sounds better than the Neo version youtu.be/aujwvu-ejAA?...
