Segaiden #009: Two of the Four Kings of Terror
Added 2021-03-17 13:00:06 +0000 UTCIf you have seen Virtual Boy Works, you will be familiar with that's console's shitennou: Its "four heavenly kings," games so rare and expensive that you might as well forget ever owning a full set of authentic games. I don't know if anything on SG-1000 is quite as rare as SD Gundam Dimension War or Virtual Lab, which supposedly were produced in double digit quantities. But I do know that if you want to own a full set of SG-1000 carts, you're gonna have to pony up a total of $3000 or so for Space Slalom and Pachinko. Thankfully, Sega expert and collector Omar Cornut was able to help me source scans of those games! Otherwise, they'd have been notable gaps in this series.
Also up this week: Zippy Race and Exerion, neither of which is especially hard to come by. Heck, Zippy Race was released on two different formats!

I believe Kevin Bunch has the Intellivision as a funding goal on his Patreon. I'll probably eventually join that as his Atari videos are really good. (EDIT: I'm now one of Kevin's Patrons)
