EA Reverse Engineered The Genesis For Development
08.11.08
The sticker on top reads: “Sega Genesis Probe. 1990. Internal EA Project to reverse engineer the Genesis”
You see, when the Genesis was a baby, Sega couldn’t pump out enough dev kits to meet demand. This says something about the difference in power that EA had then versus the juggernaut it has become now; can you imagine a console manufacturer stiffing EA on dev kits today? At any rate, EA wanted very much to be in the Genesis business, so someone “acquired” a dev kit from someone else. Where that dev kit came from, or how EA was able to borrow it for an extended amount of time… these details were left a little hazy in the telling of the story.
