Historicnerd: Sega’s SVP Chip, The Story of the Sega Virtua Processor
Join me as we dive into Sega’s response to Nintendo’s FX Chip
Its Bits not Bytes, I miss spoke.
My Theory at the end of the video isn’t 100% accurate the Patent that code masters filed was for their Aladdin expansion deck. It didn’t really allow for 3D graphics on a 16 bit it was focused on the 8 bit NES. The design spec for the patent does calm a modular unit with a stand alone GPU “Graphics Co Processor“ in the receiver which still might have impacted Sega’s ability to move forward with a patent for the modular SVP unit.
