I was always more into Nintendo and Sony growing up, but for the past few years I've started to prefer the mega drive to the snes, I love the aesthetic that Sega of america had during the early 90s, a clear predecessor to Sonys marketing of the PlayStation later in the decade as a more mature and edgy alternative.
The whole thing just intrigues me and I want more of this style, look and attitude that the early 90s had and that Sega definitely had a hand in crafting.
So I'm making this thread to post share stuff from this era of Sega

This image is some Sega press packet, all I could find was a few paragraphs about it and not much of what's in it

Anyone here hated Sega for their attitude, but soften up after they went 3rd party?
>>
>>4038792
What does this even mean? Who is that gay-looking male?

>>4039058
Sega was only "tude" in the US and maybe a bit in Europe, but in Japan they were always based.

>degenerate

Did /pol/ design this ad?
>>
>>4040087
You know I used to really hate this underage statement but now I kind of envy you kids. You live such a cuddled and sheltered life that you associate a word like "degenerate" with a shitty sub reddit. Really a sign of the times.

I think the MD's limitations gave it a lot more charm as a game console. You can almost instantly recognize a game as a MD game from just looking at a screenshot or listening to some music.

SNES has higher quality audio and a lot more colors, but that almost makes it more generic. About the only time a SNES game has that easily identifiable SNES feeling is when it's using Mode 7.
>>
>>4040124
I was hopeful it was but then I saw someone mention it in a game I was playing. You children honestly associate the word with racists and trump. If it's not /pol/ it's some trump sub reddit.
>>
>>4040126
>more colors makes it more generic
?

I think both MD and SNES are very recognizable in terms of visuals and sound.

Lots of later consoles lack palette restrictions and display all the same colors as the SNES, so visually they'll look identical. Individual games and franchises can have their own style and you might be able to recognize those, but the console itself doesn't create any recognizable visual features.

And SNES is super heavy on samples for music. That completely destroys the console individuality you get from chip tunes.

OP I recommend finding a Sega Visions archive and treating yourself to some extreme and undiluted 90s Sega 'tude.

Does Sega marketing in japan had this RAD attitude all the time or it was only a burger thing?

For the MD; in Japan it was marketed as an AMERICAN console, sorta. The japanese TV Sonic commercials all feature english narrators (or have lines in english) and make sure to tell that Sonic is big in USA. He wasn't nearly as popular in Japan.
As for the 'tude, I don't think so, Sega's marketing in Japan was regular marketing, it didn't attack competitors that I can remember.
Closest to that is probably the Segata Sanshiro CMs where they imply the evil company that launches a missile and kills Segata is Sony (or Nintendo, but I think it's meant to be Sony)

>>4039065
He's sayin British women all want French guys, it's an insult aimed at British men. Then he's challenging them to play online, highlighting the Dreamcast's ability to play people around the world through the internet, something unique for an out of the box console at the time.

Found an archive, but they're kinda blurry and a bit hard to read, any other magazines I should check out from this time?
Might go hunting for magazines to download.
[Spoiler] Doesn't have to be Sega or game related if you can think of anything good to recommend me

It's funny, as a kid the idea of a 300-hour video game would have blown my mind, but as an adult a singleplayer game can barely hold my attention for 20 hours. I don't think I even played Terraria longer than about a hundred hours.

You're either a faggot who calls people children to belittle them, or you're actually old-as-fuck and you think that means shit on 4chan of all places.

Fuck off.

This isn't the kind of attitude I was thinking about when I started this thread

I just wanted to talk about Sega ads and how cool I thought they were
