1. Baku Baku Revival’s Kickstarter FAQ claims talks were underway to license the Baku Baku name from Sega ↩︎
2. At one point, there was a download link for this WIP Virtual-On fangame, but it’s no longer active ↩︎
3. Gals Aidakuji’s itch.io page was not fully archived, but it is partially viewable here ↩︎
4. Itch.io page was not archived, so twitter is now the only place with proof of this game’s existence ↩︎
5. Despite the name, this version of Pengo is not a licensed port and is uniquely distinct in a few ways ↩︎
6. Blokketiblok is more of a Don’t Pull clone, but it does contain a few subtle nods to Pengo ↩︎
7. Sonic is too big to bother listing everything associated with it, so this section strictly pertains to the Saturn titles ↩︎
8. Horizon Vanguard combines elements from both Burning Force and Virtua Cop ↩︎
9. Footage of the unreleased GBA port of Virtua Racing Deluxe ↩︎
