Sega Tapes, the cartridges used by the Sega Genesis game system, have appeared in the Homestar Runner universe. While none of the characters has been seen playing any of these games, Homestar Runner once attempted to use a Sega tape and controller with a waffle iron, with delicious results.
"Tape" is a somewhat common misnomer for cartridge, referring to the Sega Genesis cartridges' resemblance to cassette tapes. But, the cartridges for the Sega Genesis used semiconductor-based ROM chips for data storage, not spools of magnetic tape, so they are not actually tapes.
Appearances
- Debut: Email anything — Sega tapes with Videlectrix game names on them are used as coasters for glasses of Melonade.
- Teen Girl Squad Issue 8 (Easter egg) — Tompkins steals a Sega tape with the game Road Rash on it.
- Email more armies — Homestar says that "the last time I fired up one of my old Sega tapes, it made me a waffle."
- Email slumber party — Strong Bad goes over to Homestar's house and hopes to play mature-rated games such as Blood Bleeder, Head Chopper 2, Scab Wars, Blistergeist. A few other Sega tapes are lying around, including Throat Rip and Saliva Quest. Homestar informs Strong Bad that those games are "off-limits" and that they're only allowed to play Clapping Party.
