Today, I present to you a direct hardware capture of Sonic Advance 2... RUNNING ON A SEGA DREAMCAST!

Turns out developer, bezet, has been hard at work porting the Gameboy Advance classic to the little white box of dreams... where it belongs!

It's still extremely early, and there are plenty of visual glitches, performance issues, as well as no audio implemented yet, but as you can see, progress at this early stage is still extremely promising, and much of the game is very playable!

Stay tuned for more footage and news as developer bezet continues to progress!

@SlimerErasmus @SillyThena Agreed. Choppiness in original breaks the flow state vibe a bit.

[Racketboy / Nick @racketboy]

@turboblitzzz Updated with @xai added in.

@osarood @The_AI_Investor Any he was constrained to one company

[Racketboy / Nick @racketboy]

@matt_slotnick And if you invest a good amount of it instead of blowing it all, opens up so much flexibility.

@sliykeboy23 @onlysitcom Just lots of Photoshop

@JoshLipnik Stunning 🤩

@firstadopter I think you jinxed it. Now it’s down less for the day than NVDA 🫤

[Racketboy / Nick @racketboy]

@iFixRetro @jeffqchen Oh man, I forgot about those. Sad to say I owned those and got excited about them for a brief period of time. One would assume, back then that Intel hardware was top-notch and cutting edge. 🤦

[Racketboy / Nick @racketboy]

@Liza_Shumska Absolutely my current new favorite.

[Racketboy / Nick @racketboy]

@JunkWaxHeroes Dang. Not the highest quality photo of his face, but he looks so young!

@actionhankbeard If only the new game had this style 😎

Street Fighter 3 is one of the most beautiful games ever made and it's hard to believe it never found the audience it deserved until years later.

@StotheOB @JunkWaxHeroes Inflation adjusted is the thing nobody likes to bring up. Only collect for the fun.
