3DS collection SEGA 3D Reprint Archives is launching on the 18th of December in Japan and now you can see gameplay of each game in the collection via this new trailer, direct from SEGA’s Japanese YouTube channel. Check it out below:
SEGA 3D Reprint Archives features 3D conversions of Space Harrier, Fantasy Zone, Out Run, Ecco the Dolphin, Streets of Rage and Shinobi III as well as re-releases of the Master System 3D-glasses versions of Space Harrier and Out Run. The collection is currently Japan exclusive.
Above you will see the cover art for the new SEGA 3D classics collection SEGA 3D Reprint Archives. The game will be exclusive to Japan and will include the 3D ports of Space Harrier, Fantasy Zone, Out Run, Ecco the Dolphin, Streets of Rage and Shinobi III that were released on the 3DS eShop.
What’s really interesting about the collection is the 2 new inclusions that are exclusive to the collection. Remastered ports of the Master System 3D versions of Space Harrier and Out Run will also be included. These games were originally released for SEGA’s 3-D Glasses peripheral that worked with the Master System. Only 8 games made use of the peripheral and this is the first time any of the games have received a port to another system.
SEGA Japan have released a 30th anniversary SG-1000 music collection today. The CD features 227 tracks of SG-1000 soundtrack music on 4 discs and covers games like Outrun and Space Harrier.
A full track list can be found on the official website. You can go there by clicking here.
The boxset comes with a price tag of ￥5,250 which is roughly £35.

Fancy a bit of SEGA-based reading to accompany you on a long journey? Well Hardcore Gaming 101 have finally released their SEGA Arcade Classics Vol. 1 book which “includes 168 pages of extensive reviews of over seventy classic games originating from the 1980s and 90s arcade scene.”
You can order the book from this link here which includes various shop listings for various countries.
There is hope Westerners! The Australian Classification Board has revealed a listing for 3D Space Harrier; the Space Harrier remake for the 3DS eShop. The applicant for the classification is none other than SEGA Europe so it would seem that the previously Japanese exclusive game is now coming West.
