Sega's mission to make its history more accessible, and give the world even more authentic Sonic cartridges, leads our coverage this week. We also look at the ultra-compact, resource-light KolibriOS (runs comfortably on a 30-year old Pentium!) and an Amiga 1200 that's been upgraded beyond belief. Plus your top picks for the best real-world locations to simulate in a game, more Commodore Callback discourse, and a very special 40th birthday!
