The Sega Era

Sega's 90s catalogue moved fast and took risks. Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast, the arcades that fed them, the merchandise that trailed each launch. The blue-ribbon years produced cartridges, plush, promotional cards, and magazine inserts that rarely made it past the living room floor. What landed here was stored carefully enough to survive two console generations.

Samurai Shodown (1993) was SNK's weapon-based fighting game masterpiece. Set in 18th-century Japan, the game featured samurai, ninjas, and warriors battling with swords, staffs, and other weapons in a deliberate, strategic fighting system that stood apart from the faster-paced Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. The Neo Geo arcade original was legendary, and Takara's Genesis port brought the experience to Sega's 16-bit console. The beautiful Japanese art style and the weapon-based combat made Samurai Shodown one of the most distinctive fighting games of its era. SNK fighting game ports on Genesis are collected by fans of the genre's golden age. Victory is in the blade.

Sega Genesis cartridge only. Pre-owned. See photos for condition.
