Yes the Sega Genesis does have good sound. But nintendon't have a chance against Sega.

Yes it does. I didn't really like it when I first got my Genesis but it definitely grew on me

The Sega CD games that layered the CD audio onto the on-board sound very much hold up. Was just playing the hell out of Road Rash yesterday, most 90s experience this month.

It's also very profession yet at the time genuine and natural.

nope, it is pronounced Gaiales, as in no more Gaia (like life vs lifeless), coz in the story, the earth is dead...

@@mazonemayu nop. Japanese don't use the L sound in their pronunciation. So, you should pronounce an R.

You are wrong, I studied Japanese, and their sound holds the middle between our R & L, it's a sort of rolling R that starts with an L, something that doesn't exist over here, same as their "fu" which holds the middle between an F & H and since Gaiar(l)es is Engrish to begin with, they clearly aimed for an L, but since they do not know the difference between an L & an R they simply mixed it up, there's hundreds of examples like that in anime & games. A good example of their misuse of the L/R, is in teRebi, which means teLevision, it is a loanword they took from English

@@mazonemayu Well, that may be true. We, spanish speakers, do have two different sounds for R and one more for L. To us, japanese R sounds exactly like one of our R sounds, clearly different to our L (nothing in between our R and L). Could you assure that the RES part in the word is equivalent to English LESS? Are you guessing or you have any info to confirm it? Maybe read it in an official game manual? Perhaps, we should just pronounce it gaiaresu!

Yes, I read it in an interview long ago, and that combined with my knowledge of Japanese, made perfect sense. And I know what you mean, I also speak Spanish (I'm from Belgium, but we go on vacation to Spain a lot so I decided to learn Spanish too, to make life easier when we are over there LoL), your double R like in perro sounds unlike anything else, also the G (which sounds more like our K), and we don't even have a native sound for your J LoL. I have this friend who lives here, but is originally from Chile, and his pronunciation is completely different from Spanish folks...I love it, language is so great, you can learn something new every day.

+jcchaconjr I think cause its been mentioned a gazillion times already. Most shmuppers already know its awesome. Id rather hear about the more obscure , hidden games.

Real *system* sure ...real software?

Game Sack how do you get rid of the cram dots in games like afterburner 2 and burning force? Are you using a mega sg?

Thank you for saying "back in the old days" I hate it when British people, for instance, who never used the term "back in the day" until "the day" had been over for a decade or two say it that way. "The day" we are talking about on these things usually predates the term "back in the day" i.e. it (that phrase) was invented in the ninties, and British people, and allot of other people in this world first heard it in the late ninties or after, so it's pretty awkward that that is now so universal. It wouldn't be a problem if people said that every now and again, but one gets the impression that some people don't know any other way to express "in the past" other than that phrase. Like, what "day" do *they* mean? Back when they wore futuristic sunglasses and tight shirts and bumped ghetto blasters and had processed hair as opposed to baggy clothes and athletic gear? Because that's what that term was invented to describe, a major shift in black American culture, not to make it about race, buuut...I mean, I was there, we used to say things like that ironically to draw attention to the contrast, that was the funny part. Now people act like it's the only way to express that idea...I mean, I certainly can't imagine they think it's hip, it's about as hip as "the bomb" If the first time you hear "street slang" is from a middle aged womans beauty program or a twelve year old it's probably already over.

Gamesack is always #1, but you should check shmupjunkie if you want a comprehensive Genesis shmup list.

lmao

It's the soul reason it failed

Michael Wolfe Lord Karnage will not be pleased!

this game also reminds me of gradius

Truxton is amazing.

when yo bomb the screen pause, if left on for 10 15 second the bosses insta die

Mine too. It's one of my favorites, glad to see another fan

Phillip Marlowe lol

CecilMcW00t That explains so much.

Thanks for the info mate. I had just uploaded a video on the unlicensed shooters for the mega drive but could not find much info on most of them. I know it says its licensed by sega on the box but I thought Samsung had just put it on to make it look official. Similar to Russian games. I find it really quite interesting just how little information is known about these games. Adventurous boy and magic girl must be some of the rarest games on any system.

Yeah, I'd understand the confusion if it was a more obscure company, but Samsung is a pretty huge electronics company worldwide. It'd be a pretty big stain on their reputation if they made unlicensed and illicit stuff for their home country without approval from Sega. Though keep in mind Sega only let Samsung sell their stuff as a get-around to hide the fact that it was Japanese, because Korea had a rather rocky history with Japan.

Fergzilla23 Cheers for letting me know mate. Quite an interesting story. Makes you wonder what else was sold in Korea that the Japanese produced.

Ah, lots of media, including Crayon Shin-Chan. Just that they had to hide the fact that it was Japanese, usually by blotting out any Japanese text and changing names to be more Korean-sounding.

***** Actually if you play Hellfire on a Genesis with the sound chip built into an ASIC (not a true discrete YM2612) the music will be a lot slower even with the US version of the game on NTSC hardware running at NTSC speeds. Hellfire is an odd game that relies on a glitch in the YM2612 for its music. The other chips (mostly in model 2 hardware) fix that glitch and the music plays really slow.

Game Sack Never had any knowledge on that, but good to know if I ever pick up an NTSC Mega Drive. I only have a PAL system (two Mk.1's in fact) and a PAL copy of Hellfire, but I've emulated the NTSC version. Also played the original arcade version which is probably superior in gameplay, especially since it has a 2 player option, but the music is not quite as good IMO.

Turrican4D It's the fault of the game since it relies on a weird bug in the sound processor. This is the only game affected.
