That looks awesome! Man, how I wish Sega would start producing console shmups again!

Segagaga was such an awesome game.

I guess now Sega is doing a reverse, where, instead of saving the 1st party company, you must go back and destroy the 1st party roots?

At any rate, I doubt this is going to wind up on any gaijin phones. C'est la vie.

Which reminds me. Is Segagaga at all playable without japanese language skills?

I've never played this specific game, but I've never come across any Japanese shooter on any system, that wasn't playable even with no Japanese language skills.

Somehow I doubt that after 20 years this will be an exception...

You can find walkthroughs for Segagaga on gamefaqs, but it's about pointless to play without bein able to read Japanese since there's a ton of dialog and menu work.

IIRC Segagaga is a strategic simulation putting you in charge of running SEGA....

if running Sega involves flying a plane shooting down consoles. I'm there. Imagine all the wonderful smokable stuff in the executive health package.

That would be R720 and not the original game, smartass
