I made the choice to collect loose Genesis games instead of CIB in order to stretch my budget further. An interesting coincidence it’s that standard Genesis cartridges are about the same size as Audio Cassette tape cases. Finding old cassette storage racks make for a great way to display loose Genesis games.

The Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo War is still going on strong to this day with Console Wars

Once a Sega kid, always a Sega kid. We all knew what we were in for: once you signed up, you signed up for life.

As a SEGA boy, it’s great to see you have so many bangers in your collection. I personally have just started collecting them again, with a focus on the ones I remember from my childhood.

I am dying to jump into the Genesis Hole

Grew up with the Genesis after the NES, I have a lot of nostalgia for it 🥲

Greatest Heavyweights is not only fun, but it’s maybe the best boxing game of all time. We used to have all-day 2 player tournaments. Ali and Marciano are definitely top-tier.

Wow, those cases are mint…. Hard to find Genesis games that don’t look they were found in a garbage dump

Man the Sega Genesis brings back memories. My brother and I always took turns playing Sonic.

Greatest Heavyweights is easily a top 10 Genesis game. It's not just good for a boxing game. It's a great game period.

I was a Sega kid growing up. It was so cool having the clamshells for my games when all my friends had SNES and just threw the boxes away! I had a protective case for my games!

5 random titles to consider: Haunting Staring Polterguy / Mutant League Football /Mutant League Hockey / Steel Empire / Soldiers of Fortune

I love Kid Chameleon, too! I dressed up as the main character, I believe his name is Casey, for Halloween in 2nd grade.

Ghostbusters was great fun, totes forgot about it.

Fun video. I'm personally not a big Genesis fan and sold my entire Sega collection a few years ago. I did pickup 2 cartridges again with Joe Montana II: Sports Talk Football and Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition which I play on my clone system. I also have the 2 Genesis Mini consoles which do enough for me to get my Genesis fix. I agree with that beer review 100%. High Five!

Very cool and casual collection video! Was with you when you snagged Dinos for Hire at Jay's. Good stuff boys.

You heard my call on Forgotten Worlds! So glad for you guys, lets hope you don't miss your date with Cleopatra. Played it with my brother, great coop again. Thanks for the trust!

I’m a Genesis freak. Trust me, these are ones you need: Starflight, Mutant League Football & Hockey, A Haunting Starring Polterguy, General Chaos, Alien Storm, Jurassic Park

You gotta get the Road Rash Trilogy. Split screen co-op motorcycle combat goodness.

Lol that "SEGA" scream in beginning was insanely accurate, how is nobody talking about that??

True Lies never gets enough love, such a great game

Everytime I see that slogan used now "Sega Does what NintenDon't" I think that's actually accurate since Nintendo is still alive.😂 But all jokes aside, interesting list. Surprised no SFs made that list.

Games to collect and not sure if people have mentioned these but M.U.S.H.A which is really expensive but a really good shooter, Landstalker which is a zelda clone with an isometric view, and Alien Soldier which is a great run and gun made by Treasure!

I've heard Alien Soldier is a must own on Genesis.

Like Bill Walsh College Football, Tony LaRussa Baseball also has player cards. Very Cool. I remember as a kid being in retail stores looking at and reading the cases for sports games, and dreaming of all the possibilities, as a sports fan. EA and Sega Sports usually delivered back then. One lesser known 90s hockey game I highly recommend is ESPN National Hockey Night. Very fun. I could go on forever about sports games, just good to see some mentioned here in a collection. We are not all sports hating geeks in the retro collecting game. Good to see.

Bio hazard battle is a fantastic shooter. The sound and aesthetic immerse you into a vibe. It’s so good. Pick it up if you get a chance. 2 player too.

So glad you guys have True Lies. Such an epic game and one of my favs. If you’re into sports games, owning NHL 94 is a must for the Genesis. Probably the best sports title on the console. And that’s awesome that you have the tattoo for the Punisher. I have that game CIB minus the tattoo lol. Good video!

Nothing like my favorite channel covering my favorite console! Good job fellas!

Bubba 'n'Stix: A Strategy Adventure. Good graphics and a weird/hilarious premise. Keep up the good work guys. -MAC

Megaman Wily Wars has 16 bit versions of Megaman 1-3. Plus you unlock the Wily Tower once you beat all 3 games. In the Wily Tower you take on 3 stages and bosses called the Genesis Unit!

Awesome collection fellas. Your boy Sabrewulf sent you Mega Man: The Wily Wars. That's me 😊 Great vid as always. I don't comment as much, a lot less free time, but I'm always checking out the vids. Cheers!

Maximum Carnage for SNES > Maximum Carnage for Genesis

Awesome videos guys. Really like your thoughts on these games and introduced me to some games Ive missed out on!

I'm a IPA guy so I enjoy the beer reviews guys! Keep it up!

Never Heard of Chakan before 😮Feels like Ive been in an alternate universe. Great video (: I need to check out that decap attack video NOW.😂

About choked when you said "zombies ate my taters" lmao 😅

Loved the video guys! The Genesis brings me back to my childhood. Still love the system and the great collection of games.

Great collection, I love the Genesis. Sparkster is a Rocket Knight sequel. Suggestions: Shooters, Lightening Force, Fire Shark, Steel Empire, Musha (stupid expensive). Beatem Up: TMNT Hyperstone Heist, Paprium (another stupid expensive title). Platformer: McDonalds Treasure Land Adventure (no really, this is an awesome game), World of Illusion (because its 2 player), Tanglewood. Run&Gun/Slash: Strider, Life on Mars or Life on Earth. Racing: Road Rage, Out Run... That"s a good list to start you off with. 🙂

Good call on the retro sports games. I have a whole section of my game room dedicated to 90s sports games. Most of my best memories of gaming as a 90s kid are from sports games. When season modes, player trades, etc were introduced it ruled my world, and sports/wrestling games are still my favorite genre by far to this day, and heres hoping WWE 2k24 and Madden 25 will be better this year.

awesome video guys and welcome back man i missed you guys so much

Great list boys! Excited to jump in and try some of these. This will be my reference for games 🤙

Great collection! I grew up with SNES, only started collecting for Genesis a couple years ago and have roughly 40 games which is double what I have for SNES because Genesis is generally more affordable, and has more arcade style games which I prefer. Some recommendations to add to your collection are Dynamite Headdy, Vectorman, Thunder Force III, Road Rash 2 or 3, Alien Storm, and Comix Zone.

For a shooter, you've got to look into Lightening Force! From the music to the visuals... it was very impressive. I have a lot of nostalgia with the Road Rash series with the Genesis so I always recommend any of the 3 (2 or 3 maybe preferred over the first). Another off of the top of my head that some overlook as just a mascot game... is Cool Spot. It is a fun little platformer that impressed me more than I thought it would.

Sega Genesis is my favorite console of all time it's the console as a kid I had the most fun. I was big Sega fan love Nintendo also

“Sega does what Nintendon’t” Yep - closes its console division :p

I love the Genesis! Great stuff

I love sega genesis but I also was a Nintendo kid at the same time. I still play genesis to this day and some of my favorites were phantasy star iv, gunstar heroes, monster world iv, beyond oasis, panorama cotton, pulseman, Mamono Hunter Yohko

I was a nintendo kid growing up, but we we visited family in the UK, they had the "mega drive" and The Taz games were a lot of fun as well as Mickey Mouse Castle of Illusion.

Sega Genesis FTW! I’ve been loving metal dragon lately. Trying to no death run. Kind of need to adopt a slightly different playing style, but it’s been fun! Also got their new one “Life on Earth” Just trying to support all new game developers for one of the best game systems of all time! I like your guys collection! Keep building it!

Nice collection you guys have. Show us all your stuff one system at a time. During the 16bit era i was in my late 20s. I had all 3 main systems. Sega genesis,snes and tg16. Loves all of them. Snes 1st sega a super close 2nd followed by tg16. And being a fool i sold them all. But i got 40 tybtes of old systems on hard drives thanks to Christopher Shaw.

I find myself collecting for genesis more than SNES . It's cheaper and the cases make it more worth it.

Being in the UK, I remember Ocean made WrestleMania for the Amiga around the same time - I would guess they called it Super WrestleMania to make it clear it is so different. Noticed no racers- Lotus and Lotus 2, F1 and street racer ,1( plays different to the Super Nintendo). Also Dragon's Fury is a great pinball game - if you liked Alien Crush on the TurboGrafx mini it is a port if it's sequel

Great video guys! I’m a massive Sega Genesis fan myself. I have both a TerraOnion Mega SD & and Mega EverDrive Pro to keep in the systems. I also just got a very special demo cart in the mail I’ll send you guys a photo of! Sega Nomad & CDX forever! 😂

GOTG G coming through with more Genesis bangers🔥🔥🔥

Christmas 93' when I was 5 for Christmas I got the Model 1 with the original Sonic pack in. It was my genesis literally and figuratively. Over early 94 my neighbor and I shared a copy of Sonic 3. Then in October they released Sonic and Knuckles. My dad went and bought it for me. It was the first time I was ever hyped for a game and my dad handing me that vertical cardboard box is an incredible memory. The lock on was so cool. I get why you guys especially Robert aren't too hot on the 2d sonics. Im sure you can understand why for me Sonic 3 and Knuckles is a top ten. When it came out in 94 there was no 3d, so many ips had yet to be made. The cool factor was insane. Kids were eating Sonic ice cream. Halloween costumes, bookings, lunchboxes. It was a special time.

You guys need the Road Rash games, Skitchin, and General Chaos. That’s a great game for multiplayer.

Love you guys. But my dude on the left is 'simply the best'. If anyone gets this reference. We're best friends for life. Awesome channel BTW.

Spiderman separation anxiety

Wiz 'n Liz is a lot of fun.

Here's a shopping list: The Strike games (Desert, Jungle, & Urban). Isometric shooters with an unexpected layer of strategy. Probably not expensive. Dune Battle For Arakkis. A RTS that I've been told uses the Herzog Zwie engine. Mutant League Hockey. The funniest hockey game out there! There is also Mutant League Football but never played it. Robocop vs. Terminator, as badass as it sounds Shadowrun. Another different game from the SNES. The Genesis version is an open world cyberpunk RPG.

surprised to not see outrun in yall's genesis collection. absolute banger!!

Guys, get General Chaos ! It's 2-player awesomeness. Great video, btw.

First time seeing your channel and subscribed. I’m a Megadrive collector (what it’s called my side of the pond as I’m sure you know). I think it’s cool that you both seem a little young to have been into the Genesis in its day, but you appreciate it now. Love your collection, personally I don’t like multi game carts, just because I have an emulator anyway, so when I’m collecting I just want the original games, but each to their own! Looking forward to watching your other videos 😎👍

Hey guys, my first system was my Dads Genesis and a couple games I would recommend are Desert Strike, Jungle Strike and Road Rash 2. Great games! Love the channel

Awesome collection! Always liked the Genesis boxes, but you guys are missing General Chaos!

Hi Robert and wes ❤ all your content on gaming off the grid I still 2 year back catching up on your videos but i don't care all your videos are arsome from the wwe royal rumble game you lads played which i a big wwe fan and been watching it from my childhood from the 80s and loving your thrift storevideos when you go out and look for cheap games and also i love the ps2 buying guide so guys keep up the great work i appreciate both of you guys and your content and one last thing wes you are a funny guy the jokes you come out with especially the one on when you boys was smackdown vs raw 2007 royal rumble first when you wes was doing the announce voice it was top and the next joke i love when wes says the brass ring sliding in to my pocket next to my rocket 😆 🤣

SEGA does what NintenDONT Joe Montana Tommy Lasorda Arnold Palmer Michael Jackson blessed to see all from 1980-Now

4:04 cheeky boing mekes me realise I am child lol

I am a big mutant league football and mutant league hockey fan. Just fun takes on the sports and unique for their time. Al’s the Vectorman games are great.

Battletoads on the Genesis is a great game.

no sonic 3 I thought for sure y'all would have it it's a must play❤️

It's called Mega Drive in the UK. I also wondered why even the American SNES looks different than one we have over here in the Pal region.

That's right if you hold the mode before power up and you can let go at the sega logo i believe

I remember playing aaahh real monsters on sega when I was little that and sonic was my intro into gaming

love the collection videos!!

Im not trying to buy every Genesis game but ive been recently buying the bucket-list games Ive always wanted but never had before they get too expensive. Crue Ball(with the motley crue soundtrack), Rolling Thunder 2 and 3, Sunset Riders, all 3 Streets of Rage to name a few👍

I had NBA Jam on the Game Gear and I remember Charles Barkley being playable😎

If you like the aesthetic of Chakan, Skeleton Krew and Granada are a few you need to check out. Gauntlet IV is my vote for best co-op. 4 players and the soundtrack is banging. You can even play it 4 player on your hacked Genesis mini.

I feel like you guys would love "Gain Ground".

Bimini Run is unique co-op game. I like it and think you guys would as well.

Sweet collection. Needs some Skitchin' though

So many great games! Sega is one of the best consoles out there.

I love this video. I looked into mine I have 194 genesis games and 82 of mine are cib. But some of those big ones O don't have but great collection and would see more of these. Maybe a saturn. Love the channel. Have influenza A and the video got my mind of it a little thanks guys.

The Genesis has so many bangers on it, which this list does have some of. This was my first "modern" console (read: current) as a kid, and my first game was Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition. Still got all of my old collection too. I even recently took a really clapped Model 1 and put it in a clear smoke grey shell, it looks so fire. Demolition Man is such a fun game, or rather two different games in one if we're being honest. Ghouls n Ghosts is one of my all time favorites... funny story with that one. I had two straightedge gamer friends of mine hanging out, I smoked a fat bowl of the devil's lettuce and put on Ghouls n Ghosts... I no-death ran the game through the "ending" only to realize I needed to beat the game twice in a row and said fuck that. My friends were thoroughly impressed, and I had only ever got to like the second to last stage or something before that. Shit, I was impressed. Hmm... my copy of Power Rangers: The Movie isn't in the clamshell case. Mine is in one of the late cardboard boxes, but it's holographic both front & rear. It's pretty cool kinda like that copy of Xmen 2, shame the box is like crushed. I really should pick up a copy of NBA Jam, but I scored a Sega CD version some years back so it's low priority. Rocket Knight Adventures is such a badass game. Back in maybe 2012ish I scored a mother load of CIB at a GameXchange one day, must have just got put on the shelf. It was Fatal Fury 1 & 2, Samurai Shodown, Shinobi 3, and two of the Streets of Rage games. Whichever the third SoR game was I got separately to complete the trilogy. But hot damn that has to be one of my best hauls at a retail store, and back then the prices were very fair compared to where they are today. Some of the holes in the collection that should be plugged off the top of my head: Vectorman 1 & 2, Road Rash 1-3, Comix Zone, Viewpoint, ESWAT. Four games that still elude my collection are the heavies: Castlevania Bloodlines, Contra Hard Corps, The Punisher, and Hyperstone Heist.

Gentlemen, I can think of two games from my childhood that I recently found and picked up again. Been having an absolute blast playing them and I feel like they don't get talked about enough...and that's Ranger-X and Battletech. Both are incredible in my humble opinion and definitely worthy of adding to anyone's collection.

Great Video guys. I think some games you should look in to is Fire Shark , it is a great shot n up. the golden Axe games I feel are great co-op beat them ups.

Great collection bros.👍 I gotta recommend a couple of "Genesis only" carts......Splatterhouse 1&2....these disturbing carts would've NEVER been on Nintendo back in the day and they are all- time classics as you already well know.

Barkley was totally OP in the game he was like a cheat code

Great choices. Only a few suggestions - Spider-Man v the Kingpin is great on Genesis but better on Sega CD. Mutant league football and mutant league hockey FTW. There are early Revenge of Shinobi carts that have tons of copyright works that removed/altered Spider-Man, Batman, Godzilla. The Terminator because sega put them in there without authorization

My Sega collection is huge and it's in a Mister fpga 😅

Awesome collection. I hear ya bout old sports games, they just hit differently. I still play full seasons in my NBA Live games, I even bust out good ol' Joe Montana Football!

Very nice collection guys!

Great collection guys, but there are some omissions that should be rectified First, NHL 94, it's a must-have for a Genesis collection, and it's cheap (and 2 player, and co-op) And I really think Wonder Boy in Monster World is a necessity Other than those, my own personal recommendations are The Immortal, Haunting Staring Polterguy, and Crusader of Centy, though maybe just emulate Centy, it's freaking costly Keep up the awesome content boys!👍

Greatest heavyweights is my favorite boxing game of all time!!! Still creating boxers on that game since it came out lol

Ultimate Warrior was on WWF In Your House, not WrestleMania the arcade game. Super WrestleMania for Genesis at least had each character's special moves, which they didn't have on the snes version.

I highly recommend Shadow Dancer on the genesis. It’s not a direct sequel to Revenge of Shinobi, but it’s an adaptation to the Shinobi series and it’s excellent.

I was just watching one of y'all's videos on the sega Genesis mini yesterday! I cant decide if I want a mini or go all in and get the actual system.

Gentlemen..another fantastic video!!! I know I've mentioned it before but I would say at least give flashback a try and another one to look for is Rambo 3 definitely some good games... just my opinion ..cheers 🍺 and continued success!!

If I had to recommend one game, it'd be Fire Shark. Others I think you'd like are Bio-Hazard Battle, Herzog Zwei, Red Zone, Phantom 2040, Championship Pro-Am (basically upgraded R.C. Pro-Am), and Saturday Night Slam Masters.

Nice collection. You guys should check out Vapor Trail (also 2 player!), Mystical Fighter (I think this is also co-op), The Pirates of Dark Water (snes game is completely different than the sega version) and Growl (also two player). I was surprised to not see one of the Vectorman titles in your collection. Cheers 🍻
