30th Anniversary of the Sega Mega Drive

For the 30th Anniversary of the release of the Mega Drive in Japan, I thought it would be fun to take a look at some old Sega Mega Drive (and Genesis) commercials from the late 80’s and early 90’s. Back when “Blast Processing” was an amazing ‘technology’ (we learned later it was just a buzz word).

To commemorate the 30th Anniversary of @Sega Mega Drive, watch this awesome Japanese commercial for the iconic system! It was released today (Oct 29th) in Japan and marked the beginning of an awesome 16-bit console!#retrogaming #MegaDriveMonday #gamersUnite #MegaDrive30 pic.twitter.com/I9AQjbZ9Dv
