3-D Glasses (セガ3-Dグラス), also known as SegaScope 3-D Glasses, is a Sega Master System active shutter 3D glasses accessory developed and manufactured by Sega. The accessory creates the illusion of three-dimensional graphics in games which support it. It was designed by Mark Cerny (previously known for Marble Madness),[8] and is similar to Sega's previous SubRoc-3D (1982) active 3D system.
Contents
Hardware
The 3-D Glasses use a shutter system to close the left and right lens rapidly to create a 3D effect. The Master System glasses can only be used in the original Master System, since it hooks up directly to the card port not found in the Master System II (US/EU model). Such a system allows 3-D graphics in full color. A disadvantage is that it halves the effective frame-rate, which some users can perceive as flicker. It also tends not to work with non-CRT-based televisions.
Compatibility
- Blade Eagle (1988)
- Line of Fire (1992)
- Maze Hunter 3D (1988)
- Missile Defense 3-D (1987)
- OutRun 3D (1989)
- Poseidon Wars 3D (1989)
- Space Harrier 3D (1988)
- Zaxxon 3D (1987)
Of these, Blade Eagle, Maze Hunter 3D and Missile Defense 3-D require the 3-D Glasses. The rest have "2D modes" and so can function without the peripheral, although the option is sometimes hidden.
History
| “ | I'd gone and seen Captain EO, which was a short 3D movie starring Michael Jackson. It was showing at Disneyland in Tokyo, which had just opened, and I thought it was quite inspirational. So I lobbied management to create 3D glasses for the Master System. I did the tech demo, which was sort of the Pong-style game we showed at CES, and then I did the bundled title, which was Missile Defense 3-D. | „ |
The Glasses were released in the UK in October 1987 at a price of £39.95,[5] with the North American release in the same year. The 3-D Glasses were also released in Japan in November 1987 (initially bundled with Zaxxon 3D) and both Brazil and South Korea in 1989.
