Overview
Sega Mega Drive/Genesis: Ultimate Works is the official retrospective of the world conquering '90s videogame console, featuring original artworks, concept illustrations, game development materials, pixel graphics, developer interviews and a complete guide to first party hardware.
First published in 2014 as Collected Works and now out of print, the book remains in high demand. This revised edition adds 48 extra pages, featuring newly-discovered visual material from the Mega Drive/Genesis era.
A rich resource for gamers and creatives alike, Ultimate Works is a meticulously curated showcase of all aspects of the Mega Drive's legacy: not only documenting the system and its games, the book shines a spotlight on the people responsible for the console's phenomenal success, from Sega executives and industry luminaries such the company’s founder David Rosen, its president Hayao Nakayama, and Sega of America CEO Tom Kalinske to developers, artists and programmers such as Naoto Ohshima (Sonic The Hedgehog), Yu Suzuki (Space Harrier), Greg Johnson and Mark Voorsanger (ToeJam & Earl), Makoto Uchida (Golden Axe) and Yuji Naka (Sonic The Hedgehog).
Due to changes in IP ownership since the creation of the first edition, Ultimate Works does not contain visual content related to Ecco the Dolphin or Wonder Boy.
