The Playstation dominates proceedings this week and its new arrivals section is in fine fettle with Twinbee RPG, Claymen Claymen 2, Justice Gakuen 2, Initial D, Choaniki, Thunder Storm and & Road Blasters and Marvel Super Heroes.
Finally, fine hardware and curio's in the PS2 printer Popegg, Martial Beat for budding Jackie Chans and Para Para Paradise for those that don't live on the ground floor or have net curtains.

Bank of Sega
Genki Greetings.
PS4 and Switch shooters a plenty in this update with Cotton Rock and Roll and Death Smiles I II plus Raiden IV x Mikado for the PS4 and the quirky Illvelo Swamp + Radirgy Swag for the Switch.
Valis also makes a triumphant return to hold her sword aloft on the Switch.
The Piggy Bank of Sega is a delightful discovery for anyone who appreciated Service Games during the 90's and its touching that Sega hasn't forgotten its devoted fan base.
The Famicom has more new releases in Battletoads and Astro Ninja Man DX, keeping it forever young.
A plethora of delightful restocks such as Namco 50th Anniversary Collection on the PS2, Hajime no Ippo on the GameBoy Advance, Actraiser on the Super Famicom, the AV Famicom, the PC Engine Duo R as Ultimate Tiger Heli continues to fly out (sorry.) Happy Genki Gaming.
