Title: SEGA Software Line Up "To Be This Good Takes AGES" (セガ「ソフトウェアラインアップ」プロモーション映像)
Media: VHS
Released: ~1993-1994
Scans: Cassette
Information:
A UK store promotional VHS which was in circulation between 1993-1994 going by the titles featured, which uses the "To Be This Good Take AGES" tagline on its sticker. This was done as part of the mockup SEGA TV campaigns that began in the 1990s in Europe, featuring the Sega Pirate alongside English actor Steven O'Donnell and Welsh actor Peter Wingfield. Interspersed between the overdubbed footage are sneak peaks at titles that were coming available during the circulation of the tape.
Of course, if its here, you know Ecco does make an appearance in the footage! This particular tape has the Master System/Game Gear port being featured given the time it would've been shown in stores, and while it is brief—and clearly was someone recording the CRT screen directly instead of taping footage off the Master System itself—it is nice to see it here. Save for some tracking artefacts and very minor skipping (transition into Silpheed, for example) this tape is in really good condition given its age, and came to me all the way from Scotland.
