🆕 PODCAST: In tribute to the passing of Hideki Sato, #RSHiddenPalace takes a look at some of his works for the @sega-west.bsky.social @sega.jp consoles he designed, from the SG-1000 all the way up to the Dreamcast.

Our last game for today is Sonic Adventure DX. This port has caused some division with fans of the original Dreamcast game, despite many changes being for the better in some cases, including getting to play as Metal Sonic.
Sato was in Executive roles on both versions of the game.
#RSHiddenPalace
Heading into the Future...or the Past, we have the Windows 95 port of Sonic CD.
Made as Part of a deal with Intel, this game was effectively re-made from scratch as it needed converting from M68000 assembler code into C coding language.
#RSHiddenPalace
Heading to 1981 we're taking a look at Turbo, an arcade game where Sato was one of the hardware designers.
This game has you racing through a range of different scenery while avoiding your fellow racers to get a high score.
#RSHiddenPalace
Up first is the Dreamcast Middleware Conference Demo Disc, a showcase of graphical and audio demos to let developers see exactly what the Dreamcast could do.
Here, Hideki Sato was credited as an Executive Adviser.

🆕 PODCAST: In the midst of the season for mad people throwing themselves down snowy slopes for sporting bragging rights & honours, #RSHiddenPalace w/ @blazingskies.bsky.social takes a look on video games about the Olympics on @sega-west.bsky.social consoles!
terraplayer.com/shows/the-hi...
Taking the bronze is the last game for today; Olympic Gold.
Released for the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympic Games, it was the first officially licensed Olympic game for Sega consoles, setting the groundwork for the 1994 Winter and 1996 Summer games that came after it.
#RSHiddenPalace
Running up close behind our last game is the Olympic Summer Games!
Also releasing in time for the 1996 Summer Olympics, you and up to 3 of your friends get to test your skills in 10 different events!
#RSHiddenPalace
What Izzy?
Nobody knows, but what we do know is that Izzy is on a quest to collect the Olympic rings in time for the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games!
This platformer sees our hero transform into a selection of sporting forms to help accomplish his mission!

🆕 PODCAST: The #RSHiddenPalace with @blazingskies.bsky.social is back in 2026! In this return episode, get to know about some truly bizarre SEGA peripherals and controllers.
You can tell the 90's was an era where people were trying to design the next best controller shape when we get something like the XE-1 AP.
A Japan exclusive controller, it's known in some circles as the 'Horseshoe crab', and it's not hard to see why!
#RSHiddenPalace
Ever look at a games controller and think "This needs more buttons"?
Well the company Wild Things did and created the Energiser.
This thing has buttons for days, not only that, but nearly each button has its own dedicated turbo button!
#RSHiddenPalace
Sports Science Inc who created the Batter Up! controller, also made the TeeVGolf controller, but is this wireless golf club on par with the previous controller?
Well with a $130 price tag, and then more on top for adaptors for the games you want to play?
That's a swing and a miss.
#RSHiddenPalace
First up to bat is the Batter Up! Baseball controller, which as you might have guessed is a baseball bat, which lets you swing for the fences without needing to run around a field!
#RSHiddenPalace
Now LiVE: Join Skyblaze for the 2026 return of #RSHiddenPalace !

🎵For the third topic of Hidden Palace @blazingskies.bsky.social gave to us; Puzzle Bobble!🎵
The only Third-Party game to receive the 'Kids Gear' branding, this game has 100 different levels which you'll be hard-pressed to beat before you run out of batteries!
#RSHiddenPalace
#RSWinterFest
🎵For the second topic of Hidden Palace blazingskies.bsky.social
gave to us; Virtua Fighter Mini!🎵
Based off of the Anime rather than the game directly, the animation is surprisingly clean and if you wanted to play against a friend, you'd need a Japanese cartridge!
#RSHiddenPalace
#RSWinterFest
🎵For the first topic of Hidden Palace @blazingskies.bsky.social gave to us; Panzer Dragoon Mini!🎵
While graphically more akin to Space Harrier, the true heart of Panzer Dragoon shines through.

🆕 PODCAST: Sonic's not the only famed, blue-colored video game mascot around - in this episode of #RSHiddenPalace, @blazingskies.bsky.social covers video games released on SEGA consoles featuring Capcom star darling, "The Blue Bomber" himself, Mega Man!
terraplayer.com/shows/the-hi...
Our final game is Mega Man 8, the first mainline game not to appear on a Nintendo console!
While it was released on the PlayStation and Sega Saturn, the Saturn version has a lot more going for it, including a bonus mode showcasing extras not included on the PlayStation!
#RSHiddenPalace
Even the Game Gear got a game featuring the Blue Bomber!
However, this was neither developed nor published by Capcom?!
Instead, we have Freestyle and US Gold to thank for this one!
