Sega's Weird, Fake TV Show For The 32X | Sega's Insane 1990s Infomercial!

In 1994 Sega commissioned an insanely absurd 30 minute infomercial with one goal, to sell consumers on their newest add on for the Sega Genesis, the 32X.
But unlike the direct sales pitches made by the Atari Jaguar and Philips CDI infomercials, Sega decided to go with a more subtle approach. The end result was Absolutely Rose Street, a 30 minute production that’s presented to look more like a TV show than an infomercial. This is the story of Sega's ridiculous, and at times hilariously bad 90s infomercial, Absolutely Rose Street.

[@aceofhearts573]

If the games are good who cares about the cables . All Sega had to do was release good games for it and support it for some time

[@jokerzwild00]

@@aceofhearts573 yup. One awesome Sonic title and a couple other great first party games and that would be all it needed to become a must have item. Then 3rd parties would have no choice but to support it. Why fund Knuckles Chaotix? I mean I respect trying new things but surely they knew that it wasn't going to be that good fairly early on. I bet that game cost as much if not more to develop than a "regular" Sonic title. They could have thrown in all the fancy scaling and rotation effects as long as it played good and fast. Oh well, so much wasted potential. I also see the logic in releasing an adapter versus making a bunch of expensive SVP based games. People don't want to spend over 100 bucks on a game, but a one time expense of 160 dollars to upgrade? Seems like a more attractive option on paper. Reality worked out differently though. If they could have found a way to get the price down on the SVP chip I guess that might have been a good compromise. Or you know, just shelf all of it and wait for the Saturn, then throw that saved R+D money at giving your 32-bit console a decent release with some good launch titles.

[@christopherbrasher433]

The Genesis looked like it was on life support when all of the add-ons were hooked up. I mean, I guess it was kinda on life support, lol

[@WrestlingWithGaming]

Thanks man. Sega seems to be an endless trove of the weird and obscure.

[@MentalLiberation]

Wow. I remember Nintendo having VHS infomercials on some of their 90s games like DKC and N64. But, this was actually on the air? Points to you, Sega, for actually getting on the air. And kudos, to this channel, for this video. As an 80s baby and 90s kid, this is a great vid.

[@WrestlingWithGaming]

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it.

[@GameplayandTalk]

An infomercial with an actual plot? That's crazy. Some of it even seems pretty funny and/or clever. I never saw this air back in the day so it's neat to see it now. Great video as always, thanks for covering this topic!

[@WrestlingWithGaming]

Thanks. I can see how they might have thought this was a good idea when someone brought it up at a meeting, but once they got the script I don't see how they thought this would sway someone to buy a 32X or anything else.

Be sure to come back Saturday, 7/21/18 for a livestream viewing party of the full Absolutely infomercial! Come watch and comment along with myself and special guest HistoricNerd. This one is a departure for me as it isn't a straight up documentary, although there is some history & research covered at the beginning. Don't worry, the next video will be back to my normal documentary style format for the XBAND. Thanks to Master-Cast TV, the mystery of who played Christina has been solved. It appears that K.K. Dodds played Christina. She's gone on to do Prison Break, as well as a bunch of other TV roles and films.

I was worried this format would put people off so I'm glad to see it's been well received.

Fairly certain the main actress is K.K. Dodds. She's the mom in Grosse Pointe Blank (1997) that let's Martin (John Cusack) hold her baby during the dance. Had a larger role in Soldier (1998) where she played the aid to Captain Church (Gary Busey).

[@WrestlingWithGaming]

Just looked KK Dodds up, they do look quite a bit alike. You may be right. I'll try to get some confirmation one way or the other.

Thanks! Did some more digging and found that someone had asked Blake Harris (Console Wars) if he had written the article discussing the infomercial. The guy had asked who the girl was and Harris replied, "Yeah, I think her name's K.K. Dodds." That Tweet was made in 2015.

I wonder if the 32x going up against "Stella" is an obscure shade thrown at Atari. "Stella", as we all know was the code name for the VCS during it's development & the name of the TIA chip inside the machine. (as well as the most famous 2600 emulator.) The Atari Jaguar, at the time, was one of Sega's competitors. We'll never know for sure, but, I think my theory is plausible.

Damn I bought the 32X as soon as it came out and I have zero recollection of this "show." I can't believe I missed it. But I'm glad to have finally seen it in 2018! Really cool video and commentary -- thanks for this!

I agree, I remember when this aired and being a teenager in the 90’s, it was a lot more entertaining than the cheesy infomercials of the time. It felt very “MTV”, if that makes sense. It’s just too bad about the internal strife between Sega of Japan and Sega of America. Imagine if this had been about the Saturn instead of those crazy Saturn commercials we got and Sega of Japan never forced the doomed 32X on the consumers.

It is entirely possible that nothing else completely encapsulates the '90s as well as Absolutely Rose Street.
