@anxioustobias And they spelt "Crisp" wrong. I'm still livid about it nearly 10 years later!

Did you know?—Sonic Mania recieved a UK localisation that only changed Tom Fry's name in the credits. The reason for this change is unknown.

Isn't it about time we brought the Blue Blur back home to a Sega console?! Presenting Sonic Mania Plus... running on an actual physical Sega Dreamcast! While there's no audio yet, and the 3D effects and stages have yet to be hooked up, developer @SonicFreak94, has done an INCREDIBLE job getting this title ported over so far! He worked some serious voodoo to get this game fitting into 16MB of RAM, and has even had to push against VRAM limitations, even with texture paletting being used, due to there just being so many goddamn sprites loaded at once. What you WILL notice here is that she's running at a perfect 60FPS with the DC barely even trying at all for the majority of the game! This is due to his work implementing a custom HW accelerated rendering back-end that directly uses our low-level PVR driver in KallistiOS, rather than the SW renderer used by most ports of the game. While he still has a long way to go, it's incredible how playable the game already is and just how damn good and at home it feels on the Sega Dreamcast!
