dashv Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Most folks don't know, because I don't typically advertise it on here, but I co-host a weekly live show about retro gaming. Last month it was my privilege to interview Tom Kalinske the CEO of SEGA from 1990-1996! He talks Genesis v.s. Nintendo, why the SEGA CD was not a mistake, raising money to fight aids, how many cease and desist notices he got from Nintendo during his tenure. We even talked hoverboards! (Tom also used to be CEO of Mattel). If you like SEGA you should definitely check it out! Towards the end he gives his impressions on the Playstation VR! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high voltage Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 That was great. Any company who stuck one up to Nintendo way back worked in my book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashv Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 It was fun for sure. I found his story about the fund raiser they did for for research on pediatric AIDS to be especially touching. If any homebrewers or indie devs here on Atari Age wanna be a guest sometime just hit me up in a pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gentlegamer Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 I wouldn't believe Tom Kalinske if he told me water is wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
