The July 2026 SEGA Saturn SHIRO! Community Challenge has ended, with three participants emerging victorious. SEGA AGES Memorial Selection Vol. 1 saw 57 high scores submitted from eight participants across four SEGA arcade classics.

Keith Stack won the Top 3 Overall Highest Score category with a massive score of 630,160, out stacking QberT‘s total high score by more than 50,000. Howyouben got third with 568,145.

Starting with the first weekly challenge, QberT beat out Keith Stack in the isometric car jumping classic Up’n Down with a score of 69,880. Howyouben then crushed QberT with a sliding ice block to take first place in Pengo, the second weekly challenge, with a impressive high score of 73,630. QberT returned with wild driving intensity in Head-On, nudging out Howyouben for the third weekly challenge top spot with 4,395. Keith Stack then proceeded to score a eye watering 511,010 points in Flicky, which not only won the final weekly challenge, but flicked his overall score to the top.

Keith Stack will take home a special TeePublic hat prize for having the overall highest score. All three winners will receive a magnet prize for each category won. The prizes are designed by SaturnDave, and the magnets are produced and provided by Xiden.

An honorable mention goes to Char Aznable for getting third in Head-On and second in Flicky, which put them in fourth place on the total overall score category with 469,730 points.

Thanks to everybody who participated and got to compete in these amazing early SEGA arcade classics on the Saturn. Big shoutouts to SEGARPGFAN for whipping up the participation form, SaturnDave and Xiden for the prizes, and Gregori Rasputin for helping organize, as well as updating the community with daily high scores. The 17th community monthly challenge will be announced on the SHIRO! Show at the end of August.
