    Emulinks A New Opportunity

    Andy Wolan - owner of Emuzone, the website that hosts us has opened up a new project that benefits gamers of all genres! The press release is below. :)

    As part of Emulation Zone's on going commitment to the emulation scene and to video gamers alike, we are proud to announce EmuLinks.Com . The goal of this new web site is to pick-up where many search engines, like Yahoo, leave off by offering a complete database of links geared toward emulation and video gaming. Since it's coded, owned and operated by us, a non-profit organization, you can be sure that we will strive to offer our viewers an unbiased service they can depend on.

    What makes our site unique from many "link sites" on the web is that our site is completely automated. This allows us to do things to our database of links unimaginable or too difficult to incorporate on site that are edited by hand, such as real time user feedback.

    The site is currently in its final beta testing phases, but just about all the bugs have been ironed out. I would like to cordially invite everyone with a related web site to on stop on by and submit a link to your site. Our team of reviewers will go through the link submission and review the sites accordingly.

    If you don't have a web site, we would like to welcome the public to play around with the site, add links to their favorite related home pages and give feedback on what they think of the place. :)

    Sonic #92 – Preview Spoilers: Guess Who?

    Dub here! Its _SUPER_ late my time and the Sonic #92 Spoilers are just in - and it looks like the return of a love him or hate him character. But THIS TIME - another writer and another artist are handling the chores....


    Sonic The Hedgehog #92
    "The Wrath of Khan"
    "Bagging The Big One"
    Written by Karl Bollers and Ken Penders
    Art by James Fry and Steven Butler
    Inks By Andrew Pepoy and Pam Eklund.

    The Wrath Of Khan! Monkey Khan, that is. The cyborg-simian created by Doctor Robotnik returns, and this time the furry fury's got it in for his maker and all Overlanders in general. In an ironic twist, Sonic goes from protecting the newly arrived Overlanders from the Eggman last issue, to defending them against Monkey Khan this issue! If he doesn't they might go running scared into Robotnik's clutches after all. And in the backstory, "Bagging The Big One," As his search for the Floating Island continues, Knuckles discovers he's the quarry of more than a few interested parties, each racing to beat the other. Unfortunately for them, this isn't the Knuckles they've all dealt with before...

    32 pages, $1.99, ships on Dec. 22.


    Eh. Looks to be somewhat decent - but then again I'm not a big fan of the Amazing Jackie Chan Chimpanzee either. :P Whenever he's been around its always been under the pen of Frank Strom. For once its Karl Bollers and since James Fry is handling artwork there is SOME hope. :)

    8 Issues From This One Till The Big Double Zero!!! ^___^

    This is from Sega X:

    Sonic J Hands On
    by Will Curley

    In a recent interview WaveMaster's Yukifumi Makino spoke of Roomania #203 as emblematic of Sega Japan's current situation. If there's a gaming metaphor for Sega Europe surely it's Jet Set Radio. SEGA in Europe is every bit the counter-culture, ignored, shunned, rejected by the mainstream and the industry that controls it. Like Cube, Beat and Co. they must operate on the periphery, striking with dynamism and creativity - reeking havoc and doing it in style. SoE may not ha

    Sonic Underground turns One; Possible concept of SU found?

    Yep, Sonic Underground turned one today, with it being the anneversery of the day SU aired in the US, plus SU.net along for the ride.

    On a side note, a fan manga of Sonic was just recently found on the net by Qtoken. Okay, Sega's said it before: SU is BEFORE Sonic met Tails. But who knew that before SatAM, before Archie, Before Sonic 3, BEFORE TAILS WAS EVER INTRODUCED IN 1992, there was SU? It was featured in a manga that was published in 1992, before Sonic 2. It features Sonic as a kid, along with a brother and a sister, both havin the resembence of Manic and Sonia, except in the comic, Manic is wearing glasses, and Sonia jas a FUNKY hairdo. Look for yerself. Could this be the pre-Su that existed before Tails' time?

    Sonic Manga

    WB had this to comment on the manga.

    "The manga in reference is titled Shonen Jump - its the same manga that Dragonball Z and Dragonball and currently Akira Toriyama's new project Sand Land are serialized in.

    HOWEVER - I dont THINK its fully official. But then again - this is a case where we would NEVER know.

    You see - Shonen Jump is notorius for unnoficial stuff. However - you're absolutely correct. Theres NO WAY this could have been after Sonic SatAM. This is DEFINETELY before considering Shonen Jump doesnt do this anymore.

    What QToken found is whats called a "Fan manga". Its not official, but printed officially by a respected manga artist. Shonen Jump used to do this sort iof thing if I'm correct. The kids look NOTHING like Sonia and Manic, so I doubt theres any relation to SU at all, EXCEPT for the idea that it was out there before SatAM. It leaves wonder as to what other "goodies" are sitting out there in manga land.

    Sorry to dissapoint - nine times out of ten it probably isnt SU related, but it IS a gem nonetheless and newsworthy. And like I said - if this was in Shonen Jump and been on the net this long it was definetely before SatAM.

    So while the mysteries of SU have yet to be solved, this could (or could not) be a key to where the idea may have been layed.

    This catchy piece from SegaWeb.

    JC Penney is all about the DC. They have been selling the console for a paltry $159.99 for some time now, but they are giving up something extra now. The retailer is offering a package consisting of the console and all the trimmings bundled with NFL2K and Sonic Adventures for the same $159.99 price tag. Check it out, but make sure you get the right product number if you want the package deal.
