    The CGR Undertow ending Video is one of the best KZread finales that I have ever seen. It felt like a real TV ending with flash backs and music and everything. Main CGR unfortunately had an ending and then a revivial and then Mark had a Breakdown and did those weird "Who Defeats" videos and just stopped doing KZread. I still miss him though and I hope he is doing well.

    Fit the data... sure. The loading time for something like this would be horrendous though. Remember the load times between Shan Tsung transformations in Mortal Kombat? Imagine that, but much worse here. Sega CD didn't have much RAM. This game is obviously using a lot of fast ROM data streaming and on-the-fly decompression that would be very problematic when reading from a slow-ass CD into a small RAM cache all the time. Of course, if they made a PCE "Arcade Card" (or Saturn RAM cart) like RAM expansion for the Sega CD, everything I said would go out the window.

    "This game is there, that's all matters." = the tagline for every unfinished or bugged game ever released The DLC plans, imo, are pretty lame. Probably 99% of the people who were interested in this, would have gladly waited for longer for all planned content to be on the cart. This isnt like some day-1 modern release.

    The chips in the picture include an FPGA but more importantly and ARM Cortex-4 32-Bit CPU. The rest is FLASH/SDRAM memory and some basic bus/multiplexer chips. The FPGA could fairly be used to simulate a hard to find old chip, but it's hard to justify the presence of the 32-Bit ARM which is a couple orders of magnitude more powerful than the Genesis while getting on your high horse about how special 16-bit platforms are. It wasn't unheard of to stick a enhancing chips in a Genesis game, thought it was rare unlike the NES where mappers were standard not long after launch in the US. But this is much closer to sticking the Dreamcast's CPU and a quarter of it's memory on the cart.

    What they're doing for this game could likely have been done with a much simpler custom chip, but it seems they ran into trouble with the development of the Datenmeister and opted for a more readily available off-the-shelf ARM Cortex CPU instead. You can be sure that Fonzie will have bullishly rejected its inclusion and stubbornly pushed for the custom chip idea as long as humanly possible, until even he had to concede that it wasn't viable and they had to opt for plan B instead.
