BurgerBaronThe Secrets of Sega Channel: VGHF recovers over 100 Sega Channel ROMs (and more)
Our project to preserve the history of Sega Channel — including over 100 new Sega Channel ROMs.

Sega broke ground in the late 90s with one of the first digital game distribution systems for consoles. Sega Channel offered access to a rotating library of Sega Genesis titles, along with game tips, demos, and even a few exclusive games that never came out in the United States in any other format.

Jake in the desertMany people know of the SNES version of SimCity, but there was actually a version made for the NES that was unreleased, and The Video Game History Foundation published a few minutes of gameplay of the prototype for it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0q93b_allY.
It looks similar to other versions of SimCity we know. The music is fairly repetitive (that 8-bit limitation has a lot to do with that, I'm sure) but the video here shows a lot of the gameplay features, including the monster destroying the city. The music of the short cutscenes with the animated characters (saying you have too much crime, etc) really have a kinda Mario sound to them, in my opinion.
This was a cool watch for SimCity fanatics like myself. 😂
