Secrets Of The Sega Sages
Preliminary Release
November 1993
This list contains various secrets for Sega Genesis and Sega CD video
games. Bryan Newell started this list and maintained it until he sold
his Genesis. Bob Rusaban took over the list on October 20, 1991, and
has maintained it since then as "Sega Genesis Secrets."
In November of 1993, I took Mr. Rusaban's Genesis and Sega CD lists
and merged them into a Microsoft Word file. I then formatted this
list, edited it for consistency, and added many more hints and cheats.
I hope you enjoy this list, and ask that you please help by mailing
secrets, Easter eggs, passwords and playing tips to me. When
submitting a trick, please use the current format and describe it
fully. Also, since I can not test all the secrets, if you notice a
mistake, please e-mail me a correction. Thank you.
