I had a Sega Genesis as a kid and I played my share of 2D games. I remember that Ronald McDonald game and I did play it and I also played Aladdin. There was also a Super Nintendo version but the Genesis version was better. Streets of Rage 2 I didn't actually play in the 90s but I did play it years later. That game's music was composed by Yuzo Koshiro who has worked on many, many games. I also wont argue that Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is still an amazing game even today. I like the third game slightly more but Sonic 2 had some awesome levels and a banger soundtrack

I'm more NINTENDO Consoles Fan than SWGA Consoles like SEGA Genesis because NINTENDO is my CHILDHOOD but I really like that joke "SEGA Genesis does what NINTENDON'T." By the way about of SEGA Genesis Games old 8-bit retro-style 2D platformer is my FAVOURITE Game Category and that's why i'm now really INTERESTING, HYPED and EXCITED for Rocket Knight Adventures and as Looney Tunes Fan Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure Games looks so AWESOME. I remember like it was Yesterday when I've played some Tiny Toon 2D platformer Game on Super Nintendo so now I wan't to trying playibg that SEGA Tiny Toon Game too. Are any of these SEGA Games on NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE SEGA GENESIS? By the way Sonic The Hedgehog is my FAVOURITE SEGA character GOTTA GO FAST! ⚡️🌠💎🌀

Solid list great 👍 if I were to make this list for someone that didnt grow up with genesis & wants to start with 10 must plays on genesis, I would replace Comix Zone with Golden Axe, World of illusion with Castle of illusion and Musha with McDonalds game 👍 they're grrat games eobt get ne wrong but for a new gen player, Comix Zone is way difficult, Castle of illusion is single player, a shooter is a must and Golden Axe should be introduced to any new comer even if you have to remove another great game. I personally think it's a disservice to people if you have Golden Axe & don't offer it 😅
