For the love of goodness... I never thought I'd see the day. I never even thought the day would come.

...And it is on that note that I am suspicious. I said this on the Youtube video, but I must ask again: How could this have become available for us to use? Sega must have released it from its vault- or, suffered the crime of it being stolen. Alternatively, this could just be a forgery- albeit a very well-made one. Indeed, I have to wonder how else a file designed for the Sega Saturn back in the mid-to-late 1990's could be made compatible with a file-sharing website and modern-day PC's.

This, and the seeing of a very disturbing thumbnail in this comment thread that unfortunately elicits a strong negative reaction in my tiny planarian brain (here's hoping Wikia introduces a means of fully blocking people of choice), are the only reasons I am not as excited about this as I would like to be.

I would hope that Sega themselves have something to say about this. I want to give in to the cocktail of warmth, enthusiasm, and other pleasant feelings sprouting within my chest and brain, but I cannot bring myself to do so without some proof of authenticity- and legitimacy.

Might someone here have access to a formal announcement by Sega regarding this, and/or perhaps a link there-to who s/he would be content to share with a fellow internet goer less wise?
