Revealed at this year’s Tokyo Game Show, Anippon have launched a range of three SEGA-console themed pairs of shoes.

SEGA Japan really know how to make good use of their legacy, eh?
Project X Zone 2 will feature Segata Sanshiro in his first playable outing since Segata Sanshirō Shinken Yūgi for the Saturn in 1998. Segata Sanshiro originally featured in a run of popular Japanese advertisements for the SEGA Saturn.
Sanshiro will be a solo unit in the crossover strategy RPG which also features characters from Capcom and Namco Bandai franchises. He joins a cast of SEGA characters that include Akira and Kage-Maru from Virtua Fighter, Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima from Yakuza as well as Hotsuma from Shinobi.
Project X Zone 2 is being developed by Monolith Soft and will be released by Namco Bandai in Spring 2016 for the 3DS.
Unseen 64 have unearthed concept art for a planned (but ultimately scrapped) third Vectorman game. The working title for the game was Vectorman 3: Ultra and it was in development for the SEGA Saturn by the original Blue Sky development team.
It’s also worth noting that this is a different Vectorman game than the one SEGA would later try and revive the franchise with. That game was a PS2 game that was being developed by Pseudo Interactive but this was eventually cancelled as well.
First 4 Figures have unveiled a new statue and this time it takes the form of NiGHTS. The statue is modeled on the signature pose NiGHTS pulls on the original game’s title screen but the character is in the costume that was introduced with the game’s sequel, NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams. The crescent moon also lights up which is quite a lovely little touch.
The NiGHTS statue is limited to 500 pieces worldwide and is available to pre-order now. The entire statue will cost you $234.99 with an initial $20 down-payment. You can go straight to the statue’s entry on First 4 Figures online store by clicking here.
