Where to Buy DELISTED Sega Games After 2024

[@Totavier]

Just in case that is worth mentioning, there is a compilation game called Sonic's Ultimate Genesis (or Mega Drive) Collection on the PS3/X360 that include various Sega Genesis, Master System and Arcades titles, even some titles that weren't in the PS4 version of the Genesis Classics like: Sega Genesis: Ecco The Dolphin Ecco: The Tides of Time Sonic & Knuckles Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (which has the original soundtrack) Arcade and Master System: Alien Syndrome Altered Beast Arcade Congo Bongo Fantasy Zone Golden Axe Warrior Phantasy Star Shinobi Arcade Space Harrier Zaxxon Also various of the de-listed standalone Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast games are still available to purchase in the PS3 console, just recently I was checking the PS3 PS Store and yep, still available to buy them, if anyone want a list of the titles available to purchase, they are: Sonic Adventure (plus DX expansion) Sonic CD Gunstar Heroes Street of Rage 2 Golden Axe Comix Zone Altered Beast Space Channel 5 Part 2 Sega Bass Fishing Wonder Boy in Monster World Wonder Boy in Monster Land The Revenge of Shinobi Super Hang-On Monster World IV Alex Kidd in Miracle World ToeJam and Earl in Panic on Funkotron ToeJam and Earl Virtua Fighter 2 Sonic the Fighters Fighting Vipers House of the Dead III Sonic Adventure 2 (plus Battle expansion) Jet Set Radio Crazy Taxi NIGHTS Into Dreams... Daytona USA Japan only: Cyber Troopers Virtual On Virtua Striker

Good to know, this is extremely useful! I focused on trying to find the most modern and accessible means of playing all these games for this video. However, during my research, I discovered that some titles are easily accessible on the PS3 store now as well. I wish KZbin could let you revise uploaded videos so I could include this!

[@afieldingaf]

Which region are you as far as l'm aware all regions of the ps3 store lost sonic 1 sonic 2 and sonic cd when sonic origins was first released a couple of years ago it's like sega forget that they have games on the ps3 store

[@MatthewSmart]

The most frustrating thing about the delisting is that SEGA never gave us a reason why those games were disappearing in the first place. If they announced remasters or a new collection I'd get it, and rumors are hinting at them happening. But they aren't official right now, so I really don't see how this helps anybody from a company or consumer perspective.

[@AquaTwist_]

@@MatthewSmart Agreed, that’s incredibly frustrating. Maybe they’re planning something big, alongside the reboots they announced at The Game Awards last year. I’d love a Dreamcast collection on modern platforms similar to the Capcom Fighting Collection in terms of quality.

[@jonathandogey5131]

They’re not gonna stop trying to make money with these games. They obviously have something cooking up that they’ll surprise everyone with at some point. Maybe a new Sega service is coming called “Sega Channel”, available as an app on all streaming devices…….oh wait I should shut up.

[@Robato-yuh]

Thank you ❤ for helping preserve games

[@AquaTwist_]

@@Robato-yuh You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video! 🥳

[@Robato-yuh]

@@AquaTwist_it really reignited the fire to preserve history

[@GamingtheOtter]

The Crazy Taxi soundtrack means nothing without Bad Religion and Offspring. 🎶 Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah ! 🎶

[@AquaTwist_]

@@GamingtheOtter Forgot to mention that in the video, DOH! It’s surprising I don’t hear enough people talking about the licensed tracks still being in the PS2 and GameCube versions of Crazy Taxi, and was removed in subsequent releases.

[@thelastgogeta]

@@GamingtheOtter What do you know? There is a restoration mod for that if you have the Steam version.

[@AquaTwist_]

@@thelastgogetaFor people like me who didn’t get the Steam version in time, I don’t believe they can use the restoration mod unless if they find a leftover Steam key on the secondhand market.

[@AKablalik]

0:50 Eternal Champions was also exclusive to the PC version from what I’ve heard, though most of the other Sega collection have that game by default, as well as the Sega Genesis Mini.

[@AquaTwist_]

Correct. You can still buy it separately on Steam, alongside the other Genesis titles, for $0.99 each. However, these may be delisted eventually too. I also completely forgot about the Genesis Mini in this video. I wanted to mention it, but I was trying to focus on the most convenient, affordable ways for people to play these games first.

[@Sklumbis]

Thank God, I bought them before it got delisted on steam

[@524caret]

Some things to note 1. Crazy Taxi: Fare Wars is on PSP, and includes both Crazy Taxi and Crazy Taxi 2. Also features a custom soundtrack feature, whether it be restoring the original music or putting in your own. 2. The HD port of NiGHTS is based on the PlayStation 2 remake, which goes for much cheaper than the Saturn version. The only complication is that it's a Japanese exclusive, and the PS2 is region locked.

[@Mari_Izu]

Who in 2024 wouldn't have a hacked PS2? xD

[@AquaTwist_]

@@524caret good to know, I didn’t know NIGHTS even came out on other platforms! I’ll have to look for a copy when I go to Japan. Also I don’t own a PSP unfortunately, so I’ll miss out on that one.

[@FrenchFriesWasEaten]

I mean crazy taxi is available for free in play store however it has ads and it needed wifi in order to play. Also, the japanese version of sa2 was released at steam in THIS YEAR.

[@AquaTwist_]

That’s crazy that SA2 only launched this year on Steam in Japan! I wonder how their PC market is compared to the US.

[@HatStackMike]

This is a great resource and will hopefully be of help to people who don’t instinctively buy most SEGA games when they first come out like I do. 😛

[@AquaTwist_]

Thank you! Sega has done a great job filling in the gaps of lackluster Nintendo releases this year, with games like Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, Persona 3 Reload, Metaphor ReFantazio, Unicorn Overlord, Yakuza 8, Sonic X Shadow, and more. Honestly wish I got more into Sega years ago, they’re a nice companion piece to Nintendo games nowadays.

[@azuredusk991]

I have some good news sonic adventure 1 and 2 are still available on Xbox in the United States and maybe Canada b it it’s only delisted in Germany last time I checked. Sonic the fighters still available on Xbox but not separately you have to get the legacy bundle now selling

[@AquaTwist_]

Correct! It’s nice Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 are still on Steam!

[@SilversGamer]

NiGHTS Into Dreams got remake for the PS2, however only exclusive in Japan

[@AquaTwist_]

Good to know! I’ll have to grab that if I ever see it in the wild!

[@AquaTwist_]

Closed Captions are now added! I tried increasing my audio volume and enunciating my voice a bit better so it would be clearer than the Limited Run Games video. Let me know what you all think! :D

[@cool_roberT09]

The version of Space Channel 5 on PS2 is called Space Channel 5 Special Edition and actually includes both parts as separate discs (aka disc 1 includes part 1 and disc 2 includes part 2).

[@AquaTwist_]

@@cool_roberT09 Oh wow! Yeah I was confused why all the listings I found were being referred to as Special Edition. That makes that version of the game even better!

[@thespeedrunist9755]

Nights into dreams is still on the psn store on the PS3 plus there is a PS2 version. However a good majority of people do not know about the ps2 version of nights into dreams because it never released state side.

[@ChiefMedicPururu]

No mention that the Lost Judgement port version of Sonic the Fighters includes Honey, someone NOT in the GC version? 3:11 You mention Sonic Adventure 1 and Sonic Adventure 2, yet you show DX and Battle footage.

[@AquaTwist_]

Good to know, I didn’t realize Lost Judgment has a different version of Sonic The Fighters than the GC version. I mainly used DX and Battle footage to tie closer to me talking about those games for the most up to date, modern ways of playing them outside of Steam.

[@Xanderstrife2]

This is why emulators are a big deal, cause of things like this happening. I don't get why people want to get physical copies of games when you can just get an emulator and get them for free. I'm not spending a lot of money just to get a copy of a game that i don't have a console for it to begin with. Even if i did i still wouldn't pay that much. Fuck the moral about emulation. Its preserving these games and keeping them from being forgotten.

[@kitestar]

and just like that my steam, xbox and switch accounts just became shockingly valuable...

[@basedworldbillionaire-]

Lol not really

[@kitestar]

@ then explain how someone already _tried_ to buy my Xbox account off me, huh?

[@thelastgogeta]

What has SEGA got against dolphins? 🐬 I already got all of these games on Steam, found a way to get the 60th Anniversary SEGA games that were delisted and will take advantage of the collection of MD/Genesis games including official roms that can be modded or put on a better emulator. On a similar note, the Steam versions of Sonic Adventure DX and SA2B have restoration mods and more which should be taken into account for people who are undecided on whether to get a Wii to play a GameCube game or to find a Dreamcast game.

[@AquaTwist_]

@@thelastgogeta I’m glad emulation still exists, even if it’s not my favorite. How did you grab those lost 60th anniversary games? Also it’s nice that there’s cool restoration mods for Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, I might have to check those out.

[@afieldingaf]

By the looks of it all the sega game delisted on xbox 360 thay were also released on ps3 are still available they weren't delisted unlike the classic sonic games before sonic origins a couple of years ago

[@AquaTwist_]

@@afieldingaf So maybe it was due to a licensing agreement expiring then. Perhaps Sega will renew it with a new Dreamcast/Genesis Collection on all platforms?

[@afieldingaf]

​@AquaTwist_ maybe never thought of licensing would they have different agreements with Playstation and xbox if so wonder why they would leave the games this time but remove the sonic games with sonic origins especially when only sonic 1, 2 and sonic cd got released on the ps3 store and unlike the xbox versions can't be played on newer consoles they are stuck on ps3 l couldn't understand why they didn't leave the games even i you owned a ps4 or ps5 l couldn't imagine many people would have brought them.over origins they probably didn't sell a lot but they are still missing out on potential sales

[@azuredusk991]

I never throw a fit at nintendo again

[@Llucmenork]

There alre also other PC phisical releases (usually cheap) if you don't want to buy them digitally.

[@AquaTwist_]

@@Llucmenork correct! I heard that Dreamcast Collection got a PC physical release in Europe. I don’t know if it’s region free or if it came out here in the US though.

[@Llucmenork]

@AquaTwist_ They should be region free, yes.

[@niner4lfe]

I wish they'd bring back After Burner Climax for Xbox

[@AquaTwist_]

@@niner4lfe Agreed, we need more racing games that aren’t just Mario Kart…

[@scm64entertainment44]

This shows that modern Sega can be a massive petty ass at times.

[@AquaTwist_]

@@scm64entertainment44 it’s unfortunate, considering how great the quality of their games were last year!

[@scm64entertainment44]

@@AquaTwist_ I know!

[@azuredusk991]

I recommend sonic gems collection and Dreamcast Xbox collection the better versions and the GameCube versions of sonic adventure 1 and 2.

[@AquaTwist_]

I'm definitely keeping my eye out on the Dreamcast collection for Xbox 360. I already ordered a GameCube copy of Crazy Taxi because of the licensed music. I want to get Sonic Adventure 2 on GameCube ASAP before it skyrockets in price, but I already got Sonic Adventure DX a few weeks ago for only $20 on GameCube. Sonic Gems Collection I may not get, especially since most of the earlier Sonic game I'm interested in are already in Sonic Origins anyways.

[@FrostclawTheGatomon]

All hope is NOT lost! The Dreamcast games are still available on Steam key sites. So you can just get those games from there.

[@AquaTwist_]

@@FrostclawTheGatomon Correct; I’ve checked and seen them already. However I believe they’re more expensive than they were on Steam; they’re not official so there’s a slight risk with them; and there’s a finite amount of them. Once those keys are gone, so are those versions.

[@FrostclawTheGatomon]

@@AquaTwist_ Well, you're gonna need to save money for those. SEGA usually puts every single one of their games on Steam key sites, and they basically forgot about delisting those from Gamivo.

[@onerandomguy4832]

You made a video AFTER Sega delisted the games? Whats the point then?

[@AquaTwist_]

The main point of this video was to show how you can get these games AFTER the delisting, not what to buy BEFORE they get delisted. I hope that clears things up.
