Console Analysis 14: The Genesis Collection
You're looking over Sega's most successful system, the Sega Genesis / Sega Mega Drive, and its add-ons (the Sega CD and the Sega 32X). What do you think of the systems themselves, their components and accessories, and their libraries as a whole?

Console Analysis 13: Sega SG-1000 and Master System
Whoa what, Athena Hawkins is returning with the ever-popular critically acclaimed "Console Analysis" blog series! If you have zero idea what I'm talking about, click here to read the first issue! But rather than doing Nintendo, which we've finished with their library analysis, we're doing Sega now! Because Fantendo totally gives a damn about them! (clearly)
So let's review Sega's consoles now, alright? We'll be covering home consoles and handhelds all over again, from the SG-1000 and Master System all the way to the Sega Dreamcast, covering more obscure platforms in-between. I don't believe this series will be as long as the Switch's, given Sega hasn't made systems like these in a long time, so they don't have as much to look at. You can di…
Your Experience with the Fantendo Server
Before anyone accuses me of attempting to start drama with or within the Fantendo Discord server- I'm not. I'm just asking a simple (but serious) question so I can collect data for the administration team: what's your experience with the Fantendo server? What do you think are its good parts and bad parts? How can we improve it in any way?
Anybody's welcome to comment, provided they used the server at least once, obviously.
Change the default character infobox?
So, made a new template (found here) that if allowed by the community will replace our old character infobox (found there). It's got the same default colors, most of the original headers, and can smoothly replace every single template on the wiki that uses with just a few clicks and some purges. In the event where someone wants to use the original template, it would be held at . However, I want to know the community's thoughts on this minor change before letting it happen, so I made a strawpoll.
There is no real deadline- once I do have enough votes leaning on yes and it outweighs the "nos" by a fair portion, I'll just change the template to reflect the popular opinion. Or I'll just do nothing at all if there isn't enough support for it. …
What're You Listening To? ~ Spring 2019 Edition
Welcome to a new blog series of mine, called rather blandly, "What're You Listening To?"! The concept is rather simple- in the comments, you just post what artists/bands you're listening to right now and what songs you keep throwing down on repeat. You can also talk about what video game music tracks you like at the moment, if you want. You can also recommend music you think absolutely everyone should listen to.
This session starts today, on April 26th of 2019, and will end by July 26th of 2019... let's assume I remember to write the next blog.
EDIT: Spotify users might appreciate this link- it will tell them the 50 songs they've listened to the most overall or from over the past month or week, and it will do the same for artists/bands. Just l…
