It's not even a new game, it's a game from 1996 by a Taiwanese developer called C&E Inc., they just translated it into English and it's just getting published. That's why it's a Genesis cart.
I'm not saying it won't be a good game, but just don't expect it to be something magical because it's "new."
Besides, have you played every single Genesis game out now? You can get "new" games just by going on eBay and picking out something you haven't played before
That site is pretty sweet; too bad the games aren't in cart form! Oh my goodness, Bowhack, stop being so pecimistic! It's not really so much for the fact that the game is "good" or "new", it just gives a sense of nostalgia and joy that people still give a crap about these old consoles. I never even played the Genesis, (I was an SNES guy) but I think it's great that people still care enough about the classics to make a new game after all this time!
the real difference between this project and the normal homebrew scene is that these guys are not only producing a cart but they're being far more ambitious about their project. They are trying to produce something very close to an official product, and I bet the final game will be virtually bug-free as well. The same things cannot be said for regular homebrew games. This project is far more ambitious.

What are you guys talking about? It's a game from 1996! It's not new! I used to translate ROMs. There's really no difference between what they did and what I did, except I never got the rights to the games to sell them. I wish I hadn't done it at this point, to be honest.
I'm not trying to detract from what they're doing. It's great to go to that extent, and I have great respect from them. I'm just saying that it's not something to orgasm over. Have a look at what TecToy is up to in Brazil too. They've done some amazing stuff on the Genesis.
