There’s been talk of turning Blake J. Harris’ Console Wars: Sega, Nintendo, And The Battle That Defined A Generation into both a documentary and a feature (or a TV series) since it came out in 2014. Now, after debuting at SXSW earlier this year, the former is ready for you to press start.
Directed by Harris and Jonah Tulis, Console Wars unpacks the book’s deep dive into Sega’s underdog attempt to topple the monolith that is Nintendo, primarily through the introduction of a certain blue hedgehog. The topic’s been mined time and again in the years since Harris’ book—Netflix’s High Score docuseries has an episode on it—but consider Console Wars the definitive chronicle of the bitter feud that erupted between the companies.
