Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Akira (MD) Proto found and dumped

It's always mad to see proto's that have made it this long without being dumped, actually found & dumped. This time it's Akira! https://www.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/efu4is/an_early_prototype_of_akira_for_the_sega_mega/

Seems they will have more prototype releases over the next few days - which is nice

Amazing to see Megadrive Akira in motion, I was convinced some of the magazine scans were just mockups.

Can't wait to give it a go!

For such an iconic Japanese Animation it seems like it would have been a very western game if you know what I mean.
