SEGA has released the first gameplay trailer for Virtua Fighter Project, a fresh new chapter in the series that helped define 3D fighting games back in 1993. Revealed at EVO Vegas 2025, this 1 minute trailer gives us a raw, unpolished look at the combat, set on a blank training stage. Developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, the team behind the narrative depth of the Yakuza series, this new game promises to honor the series’ past while forging its own path.
The SEGA Game Gear is a beloved console for many who grew up in the early 90s, its backlit screen and colorful games a breath of fresh air compared to the monochrome Game Boy. Macho Nacho Productions, a YouTube channel dedicated to retro gaming mods, has taken this classic handheld and turned it into a modern marvel.
In a world where retro gaming rides high on nostalgia, a modder named JNMartin has pulled off something that feels like a SEGA fan’s wildest dream. Mario Kart 64, Nintendo’s 1996 kart-racing gem, has been lovingly transplanted onto the SEGA Dreamcast—a console that never got to pal around with Mario and friends during its brief time in the spotlight.
Who remembers when SEGA first introduced the Visual Memory Unit (VMU) for the Dreamcast back in 1999? It is basically a memory card that doubled as a pocketable gaming device with a monochrome screen and basic controls. Fast-forward to 2025, and 8BitMods has modernized this iconic peripheral with the VMU Pro.
SEGA’s latest kart racer, Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, roared onto the scene at Summer Game Fest 2025 with a trailer that left fans amped up. Set to launch on September 25, 2025, across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, this game promises to be the biggest Sonic racing title yet.
SEGA Genesis fans, dust off your cartridges and brace for a revelation. The Megaswitch HD, created by developer Stanislav Parhomovich, is a game-changer for the 16-bit console that defined so many childhoods. This internal HDMI mod transforms the Genesis (or Mega Drive, depending on your region) into a modern marvel, delivering crisp 1080p video output without sacrificing the nostalgic soul of the original hardware.
8BitMods’ VMU Pro is a cool update to the SEGA Dreamcast’s original VMU, turning it into a versatile gadget that doesn’t just save game progress but also plays old-school 8-bit games from systems like the Game Boy Color, NES, and Master System on a vivid 16-bit color IPS TFT screen.

SEGA’s OutRun is getting an unofficial Game Boy Color version, created by indie developer Shane McCafferty. Bringing a game like OutRun, a 1986 arcade title with advanced Super Scaler graphics for its time, to the Game Boy Color—a handheld with limited hardware—takes smart optimization and creative solutions.
The rumors are true, Michael Bay is attached to direct a live-action film adaptation of OutRun for Universal Pictures, based on SEGA’s 1986 video game of the same name. Sydney Sweeney is also on board as a producer, alongside Bay and his Platinum Dunes partner Brad Fuller, with SEGA’s Toru Nakahara producing and Shuji Utsumi overseeing for SEGA.
This SEGA Dreamcast port (DCA3) of Grand Theft Auto Vice City is a fan-made, unofficial project that utilizes reverse-engineered source code from the RE3 project. The latter is essentially a decompilation of the original RenderWare engine used in both GTA III and Vice City.
