From back in the days when we used to root for the over-priced, clunky, ugly black games machine with no games, instead of trying to destroy it with words.
They're all American, too, so if you've ever wondered how Bug Too! was advertised to Americans, now you know.
This may well have been a bit of a rubbish update, but it served one very important purpose - it made us remember to upload another AMAZING SONIC DESKTOP IMAGE. Which we'll do soon. Probably on Monday, unless someone emails in something better.

We got sent these photos of a huge SEGA chair. A man found it, bought it, restored it, loves it because it's weird and by SEGA and now wants to know a little bit more about it.
This is where you come in, as despite all our "fronting" we actually know next to nothing about stuff like this and are mostly just pretending to like it all for something to do.
It is a hydraulically operated joystick chair, with the seat moving when you wiggle the massive stick. Apparently it was made by SEGA AM7, presumably during the early-to-mid-90s Golden Era when SEGA spunked money away on glorious follies such as this, therefore earning the adoration of a generation.
EXPLANATION: "This joypad is a size of a double seater and it is mounted on hydraulics. When you move the joystick, the seat follows the direction by changing the angle. You can move it in all six ways. When you turn and hold in position SEGA Joystick: up or down, left or right the sitting part will turn and stay at desired angle. If you use a combination turn: up/left, or up/right, or down/left or down/right, it will turn and bounce back smoothly and continuously at the given angle (feels like sitting in a bouncing lowrider)."
It would look great in the lounge of any single 33-year-old male with a complete collection of SEGA plushes, who longs for the days SEGA made massive hydraulic things and life wasn't all about SHIT.
If you can ID it or want to talk to someone who really loves weird SEGA arcade hardware, email Yas and you will almost certainly become friends.

TOMORROW: How SEGA invented the television, sausages, wanking, and was the first company to effectively manufacture French fries in its staff canteen back in 1965.

It's hard readjusting back to civilian life. Everything seems so boring and pointless after you've been away at war.
Here's a photo of some kitchen roll a man said looks a bit like a Dreamcast logo. We have supplied it in 2274 x 1704 resolution. Only another three years of this kind of shit to go and we can start slagging off PlayStation4.
Sigh.

This is an illustration of the broken underside of someone's Mega Drive power supply unit. Regular readers will be pleased to know that this update represents a new all-time low for UKR, so it can only get better from here.
EXCLUSIVE REPORT: "I have a Mega Drive power block with a broken pin on the bottom. It still works, I just have to pull the two lower legs apart each time I want to use it. That sounds a bit rude I guess, so it might fit on your site. Unfortunately I don't have it with me so I had to draw it instead. I was going to use a SEGA font to make it look better but for whatever reason it won't show up in MS Paint. I would've put all the voltages and stuff too but I can't remember those. LW"

We took some photos of a SEGA Park too! Unfortunately it (a) was in London and (b) had been turned into a newsagent.
Someone sent us a photo of a SEGA Park sign they spotted on a London street. The sign was above a rubbish shop selling postcards and bottles of water to tourists for twice what you'd pay elsewhere. The angle of the photo suggested there might be a Sega Park and Casino to the left of the shot. We emailed back, asking what was to the left of the photo...
It's a pub. We then decided to go and investigate for ourselves, seeing as it's only round the corner from where we sit in an office and press F5 all day.
Here, in fact.
It doesn't look like it was a very big SEGA Park and Casino. Perhaps that's why it closed.
There is no sign of a SEGA Park and Casino above the sign.
There is no sign of a secret entrance in the street, either.
It's blue though, and you can tell that the marble sides would've made a very grand entrance into the old SEGA Park. Imagine walking through those pillars into a world of SEGA fun!
To the right is a trendy 'eatery' where businessmen are having lunch. Probably a ciabatta, toasted, with an expresso and a beer. They are discussing the ways in which they'd like to have sex with the receptionist.
To the left is another trendy 'eatery' where businessmen are eating gastro pub food. Probably Thai, with a bottle of Kronenbourg. They are discussing salaries without actually telling each other what they earn.
Just to satisfy your curiosity.
Here's another one of the logo. This is like that bit in Planet of the Apes where Charlton Heston sees a happy thing he remembers, but then it turns out to mean something bad has happened. The bad thing that happened in this case is that another ex-SEGA facility has been turned into something that isn't about playing Daytona USA any more. The bastards.
It looks in good condition. Maybe one day we'll summon up the courage to go in and ask the owner if we can have it for fifty quid and his help in taking it down.
They can then re-invest the money in some new signage.

Because the 1993 Sonic The Hedgehog calendar features some AMAZING lost Sonic artwork. We are particularly fond of the one in which Sonic is rescuing Tails from the clutches of a giant crab.
The stories the pictures paint are many and thrilling:
1993 - when Sonic could sell products his name was on.
We recognise this one! It was on the box.
If you happen to have worked for SEGA in the early 90s and happen to have this artwork in a hi-res format on whatever kind of disc things were stored on in the early 90s, PLEASE GET IN TOUCH.
This one we recognise from somewhere.
Amazing! He's like Tarzan and Superman rolled into one. And quite gay.
Moving. Genius. Storytelling at its finest.
Lots of inspiration for gay fan fiction there (we're currently 50,000 words in and Richard Jacques has just got sucked through a portal into Sonic's world...)

The SEGA Park in Bournemouth is now a "Leisure Exchange" which is like an arcade, only emptier and worse. A roving reporter took us some photos of the inside and was even kind enough to write some captions for us. We can now take the rest of the day off to stare blankly at a screen and line up our icons, because if the icons aren't lined up properly...
THE REPORTER'S INTRODUCTION:
"The place has gone from being a testing site for every single new Sega arcade machine to a large empty room with no people and even less machines... oh, and a big area dedicated to 'gambling'"
"This used to be where it said SEGA PARK in big blue letters. Now it says... well, this. And there's a big silver AMUSEMENTS sign above the door, just in case people are too thick to work out what a Leisure Exchange is. On the plus side though, the Quasar's quite good - nice and big, with loads of good places to hide"
"Sonic's still in the windows despite the place no longer being a proper Sega Park, probably because they're waiting for some chavs to smash them with a brick so they can claim for new Sonic-free glass on the insurance"
"The view from the front door. This place used to be CRAMMED with machines - really interesting ones. Now, there's a huge gap in the middle (like, HUGE) and all the machines have been pushed against the walls. There's a sole pool table at the back, which the chavs use mostly for sitting on"
"The newest machine the place has, besides Virtua Striker 4 and House Of The Dead 4 (both of which we're surprised even appeared in this tired old place) is this WCCF card game. No one ever plays it. But then, there's never anyone in here. To be fair though, having this and OutRun 2 SP is vaguely impressive... it's just a shame all the other machines have been lost in the process"
"These people are playing Virtua Tennis 2. There are two VT2 machines in the arcade, but one's got a shit screen that's all purple and warped. It used to have several sit-down beat-'em-up cabinets (Tekken 4, SVC Chaos, Soul Calibur II) but they're all gone now. In their place is a Sonic Blast Man punching machine. Bleugh"
AND THAT'S IT
Had we written this we would've included some sort of narrative structure about the day and probably lied about there being tramps cooking up smack in the toilets. Still, it's not bad for a free update. Thanks!

It's odd that things we clearly remember from 1996 are now nostalgic remnants of gaming history, but still - if you're only 15 years old and came here from MySpace looking for porn you probably never saw this SEGA Saturn advert from 1996.
You were lucky in that respect.
What does it even MEAN? Were we really so innocent as a nation in 1996 that stuff like this seemed all edgy and cool and risque? Or was SEGA just loads shitter than we remember?
We'll have her geo-located to within six centimetres by home time.

That's what the man said, but we still made him take some photos of it anyway because it's a thing with Sonic on that we've never seen:
To this day, we still don't understand how fruit machines work. Why, for example, is that bit flashing and saying 'multiplier'? What button do you press now? There are never any instructions on them. How do people learn these things? Is it the sort of skill you only learn in prison, like how to hotwire a car and how to make methamphetamine from household products?
Eight pounds was probably quite a lot of money in 1992. We can't remember, due to being really young. Like, maybe only 20 or 21 if Vixen, Siren or any girls on MySpace want to know.

Entirely by accident, two men thought of us. Not in a gay way, although that does happen quite a lot. No, these men thought of us because they both saw something old and weird and BY SEGA! Both old one penny fruit machines. By SEGA!
This one says SEGA on its 'nose' and has an 'eye' missing so looks really cute. This also looks like a girl we used to fancy at school. Maybe that explains the weird SEGA fixation? We couldn't have Sarah Kendall, but we CAN HAVE SEGA PRODUCTS.
This is a different one, probably a more recent model what with the stylised retro-futuristic SEGA font that looks like it's from the 60s when the 60s tried to imagine what the 80s would look like. .
Imagine having that font. Imagine using Word and having that as your normal font! Or imagine having a long-running SEGA-based web site and having that font so you could make a new logo with it.
We don't often get excited over fonts, but wow. That's one hell of a font. Even if you've only got a version that works on a Mac, send it to us. We'll buy a Mac.
Actually, the usage of the term "old penny" here suggests this machine was still in service post-decimalisation, which took place here in 1971. Which means it pre-dates that time as it was constructed to use the out-dated coin. Therefore, we're going to predict this machine was built in around 1965. Unless YOU know better...

A man passed the Sega Park in Brighton seafront and thought of us. The place had two signs, one of which had the 'G' in SEGA and 'K' in PARK stolen. This is his story:

"I passed the "Sega Park" in Brighton seafront and thought of you guys. The place has two signs, one of which the G in SEGA and K in PARK were stolen by chavs who ventured off Brighton pier. In side "SEGA PARK" there are no SEGA games, in fact there is only really Tekken, one of those gay dance games for Chinese people and about 40+ slot machines. The people that work there aren't very pleasant. I'll try and get some pics of the inside of the place next time I go there but it's not very SEGA-y. Enjoy the pics!"

With the onslaught of new SEGA-made hardware and toys running worryingly low - much like the porn-to-non-porn-application ratio on our hard drives - we thought we'd treat everyone to this. The SEGA PUNCHING BAG.
It's built for HEAVY DUTY play, this is clearly important because it's written in UPPER CASE LETTERS. Even in the 1960s SEGA knew how to market their hardware. Notice the pseudo-Nazi type on the SEGA logo. World War you say? 25 years ago? Japanese war crimes? What fanciful madness is this?
Nice, but we'd rather use a woman's stomach. It's free, apart from a bit of guilt but that goes away after the first few times.
This is also what the inside of a Sega Saturn looks like.
And here it is, looking in better condition than our poor Saturn, which has remained in confinement since the unfortunate Fighting Vipers incident in November 1996. That and the whole PlayStation bribing everyone in the world thing.

Sega could do anything in the early 1990s, such was the dominance of the Mega Drive. It was, dear children, a bit like the PlayStation2 of its day. Everyone knew its name, everyone wanted one, even the Game Gear was a bit cool like PSP and its TV adverts were stylish and much talked about. But sometimes power goes to your head...
...leading to the series of adverts that ran in Viz. Viz is a comic book for grown ups (students) full of the sort of sick, gutter humour we simply cannot stand. Sega went so far as to create its own special ads to fit in with the Viz style.
They're not what traditionalists would call "funny", and even in 1992 the idea of "waggling a joystick" being a bit like having a wank was a very old joke. Besides, the Mega Drive pad had a little d-pad not a THROBBING SHAFT so it's not even based on reality.
Sega doesn't piss in the snow, it pisses in the *wind*.
Nowadays it's all viral marketing web sites. How we miss proper adverts with prices on. Thanks so SEGA SCOUT "No. 7" for the images, which appear to be scans.
