We need your help SEGA fans! These replica systems with scented tin candles are in development… but what should the scent of a Mega Drive and Dreamcast be?
Well the Dreamcast should smell like Cherry Blossom, because Shenmue. The Mega Drive on the other hand should probably smell like Haribo and pop, since that was what I typically ate while playing it as a kid.
The Mega Drive should smell of roast chicken from getting more health in streets of rage and the Dreamcast should be the smell of a little tree alpine fresh car air freshener because of crazy taxi
Genesis would smell like something tropical, because I've always loved how many SEGA games (especially on Genesis) have a tropical beach level. Perhaps Sea Breeze?
Dreamcast I would say smells like spray paint, because Jet Set Radio, and also because I'm a former graffiti artist. Lol
My flatmate sold weed when I had a Dreamcast so from a personal perspective the DC will forever be associated with a heavy guff of dirty skunk. THAT'S PROBABLY NOT WHAT YOU'RE AFTER THOUGH.
Mega Drive : Ash/Pine or Sandy Beach (Golden Axe, Green Hill Zone, Hill Top Zone, Outrun...)
Dreamcast : Lavendar or Ocean Breeze (think of the Chao Garden)
Also I cannot even begin to explain to you how much I love both Sega and candles and this better not be a hoax because I’m actually geeking out over here.
