My friend Jose visited your booth like five times but never met any of you guys, just some disgruntled friend of yours telling him you would be back soon.![]()
The Mega Drive was far inferior to the NES in terms of diffusion rate and sales in the Japanese market, though there were ardent Sega users. But in the US and Europe, we knew Sega could challenge Nintendo. We aimed at dominating those markets, hiring experienced staff for our overseas department in Japan, and revitalising Sega of America and the ailing Virgin group in Europe.
Then we set about developing killer games.

How will it work on the Saturn?
That's no good. Please, tell him to drop me a line. I'll figure something out to make up for it.
Now, a couple hours after first reading your comment, I know when that must have happened. Sunday afternoon, we left for a conference about the history of Sega (by Alfonso Martínez, one of the founders of SegaSaturno), and I had to leave the event earlier than desired as I live in the opposite side of the country (literally). Abel and Chui left for a while to see my off and then went for (a really late) lunch I think.
Most probably with an Ameba-exclusive cart![]()

Just a very subtle update here:
http://amebaofficial.com
We have a little surprise coming up in the next couple days courtesy of The Dreamcast Junkyard!![]()
I joined Tom Charnock and the rest of The Dreamcast Junkyard team for the 20th episode of the DreamPod! New details about Xenocider and specially the Saturn version of Ameba emerge!!

Sorry for my crappy english and thanks to the team for inviting me!
I was wondering if anyone has actually listened to the podcast... xD
Just in case, you can listen to it here:

And if you speak spanish, we talk Ameba and Xenocider here as well:

What's the big news? Well, as you know, Ameba will be released for the Saturn as well. But the new details are: we are releasing the game in a cardboard box similar to the classic japanese ones which included game+cart. Why? Because we are using a custom cart as well!![]()
Ok guys... What kind of rewards would you like us to include in our Kickstarter campaign?
Please let us know here:

Colored (hardcover) book that contains something a bit different ... These kind of artbooks always contains sketches or designs of the characters. What about creating a short novella that uses all of the main characters featured in the game but offers an entirely new engrossing story. I personally would enjoy something like that. It will surely create a bit of buzz in the gaming community and lend to more sales if it was one of the kickstarter tiers.

Wait, what? :P
We just released a new episode of our Dev Diaries about Xenocider. Team members Juanjo (music) and Abel (3D) wanted to show you what they've been up to, so here goes "The Beauty and the Boss"!
