Post by: Necromancer on September 30, 2007, 05:40:57 PM: I've seen this failure before. It had capabilities similar to a NeoGeo but was released around the same time as PS1 and Saturn. Not exactly a recipe for success, eh?

Agreed. Speedy Dragon also looks like a pretty funny Sonic rip off.

Post by: _joshuaTurbo on October 01, 2007, 02:05:44 PM: Holy crap, I saw this at the Midwest Gaming Classic. DHG had it. I'm going to see if he'll let me record some game footage at the next MGC in MARCH!!!

Looks kinda cool- from what Hunter said its about the same powerwise as a SNES. If I remember correctly, he had that fighting game too.....

Sorry, I guess "find" was not quite the right word. It was a "find" for me as I've never heard of this console before. I guess I should have said thanks for sharing the info. hehe :P

You're missing the point - Kitsune started this thread, not Keranu (though they do both start with a K).
