The Mega CD/Sega CD is underrated af! Back then (as a kid), the CD Player alone was awesome to have. No joke!

Oh how I miss my Sega CD. Took many hours to get my parents convinced this was an evolution in gaming. Soooooo worth it💓

The Sega CD really was a underrated masterpiece of gems that Sega just didn’t take care off

Let's not forget that Bram Stoker's Dracula: The Game was the origin of a recurring AVGN joke based on one of it's programmers: Fred Fuchs.

The Sega CD was the most untapped system next to the 32x. The sega cd could have done a very very good port of Wolfenstein 3D and i wish they used more of mode 7 type graphics in games. I got the sega cd during Christmas of i think 1992 but maybe 1993, do not remember... I got sewer shark packed in and i loved it hahahah. Lunar 1&2 or anything from working design was a classis. Do a sega cd working design video if you have not already... If you got a Working Design game you knew you were in for a treat!!!

Nice video as always sega lord x They way ur voice sounds when you review these games is what makes these videos you do even better

paco pastor, head of SEGA Spain, came from the music industry. he was used to these kind ofcompilations, and given the amount of space of the segacd, he proposed those to SEGA Europe

Great video! I know the Sega CD isn't Sega's strongest library, but it is big enough to hold a few secrets. I definitely learned a few things from this video and will check some of these games out. I downloaded the English patch for the text based games.

Hey man, thanks for making these videos. It’s really interesting to look back at all the positive and negative decisions made in the gaming world over the decades. It’s especially entertaining now, gives me something nice to watch since we can’t do much else.

As someone who would love to start a SEGA CD collection in the near future, this is a great utility! Most of the games I had my eye on were quite expensive (Shining Force CD, the Lunar titles and so forth) so having some quality game compilations for a reasonable price sounds awesome!

I always felt SEGA blew it with the SEGA CD. The unit came with its own 6800 processor that was almost twice as fast as the one in the Genesis. If they would have made game that used multiprocessors who knows how awesome it could have been.

Man I loved Sega CD! Awesome video, I honestly remember playing the hell out of the Hook cartridge when it came out, never saw the CD version

I've been loving your videos over the past couple months, their a must to get me through those long days at work 👍

I would like to personally like to thank you for the amount of work you put into your videos from a guy who' been playing games since the mid 80s till now

The 3D sections of 3 Ninjas Kick Back actually look pretty good!

SegaCD rules, that is all.

Oooh! Do one of these for the Mega Drive/Genesis compilations, too! They were my childhood!

I kinda prefer SoR sega cd sound. Its more pleasant to listen to imo. Great vid as always though

Heart of the Alien is great if you liked Out of this World... I could have sworn I had it on PC but wiki lists it as a Sega CD exclusive developed specifically for the hardware.

Clicked as soon as I saw "Sega CD"

I love 16t! The stages get really intense the further you go. It't true a lot of the challenge is in avoiding killing yourself you need be careful and strategic with how you throw your weights. It get really crazy with pieces that slide and ounce the weights all over the place.

You're on fire with content lately!

You didn't mention the completely new CD soundtrack that was made for Out of This World on the Sega CD. That alone makes it the best console version available, and I also think the graphics were better than the Genesis and were pretty much on par with the DOS version. Plus, it's the only official release of the sequel, which didn't appear anywhere else. It has since been ported to the Amiga as homebrew

Killing it as always mate... keep up the brilliant work!!!

I love the Game no Kanzume compilations! I have them both. Wish Sega released a third one though (whose color could have been green to match the RGB scheme) that would have included the remaining Meganet games (like Sonic Eraser).

After watching this episode I checked out what the CDX is going for now, and damn it’s at least $1,000 boxed complete. I should’ve bought the super rare Tectoy model for cheap when I had a chance.

Love how you played that batman returns cd music in your intro x, could listen to that all day. This generation really doesnt know what their missing, it truly was the golden age of gaming. Thank you for always bringing back fond memories for me, and keeping sega alive and well in this day and age. I still have that sega classics collection btw, ive had it a very long time now.

Please keep on finding great new ideas for more Mega CD content, I absolutely love this console (The Mega SD / SG combo is fantastic to relive these games in 2020, also helps keep the ware off of original consoles)

Your output and quality of content amazes me. Keep it up! I only wish I could be as prolific!

The rate of quality videos you produce in such a small time frame is phenomenal. Keep it up. SUBSCRIBED!

When I had the Sega CD system, I had the 32X bundled with it. It was the best gaming time of my life. I had every major title from the cartridges to the 32X games to the cd games. It took me years before giving it up and getting the Dreamcast. I hate I did that. =[

Tell you what, be really good to get a video on which titles are most worth upgrading on Sega hardware. Like, I had Virtua Racing on the Megadrive but I swapped it out with Virtua Racing for the 32X. I imagine there must be some titles that are far more worth owning on the CD rather than the Megadrive versions

I always enjoyed me some Sega Lord X videos

Congrats on all of your subs my friend. I am still so greatful that you are back!

Thought I was going to be watching a Sega CD cumpilation. While I didn't get the surprise I wanted, this was still a good video.

I love your thumbnails!

Man. I would like to play Phantasy Star II Text Adventures game. Also, Phantasy Star II is my favorite Sega Genesis game and also my favorite JRPG game. I beat the game two times, and I want to playthrough it again soon!

Was there a Wiz n' Liz/Puggsley two pack in Europe? I swear I saw that once. but there were a couple of single games wrapped together in a two/three pack sold for charity here.

Remember Sega Arcade Gallery for the GBA? How come Sega never though of releasing this jewel of a compilation for the Sega/Mega CD? Considering they could have done it easily, this could and should have been a killer app for the console. Have a good one, SLX!

I had an american Sega CD together with my japanese Gen1 Mega Drive around 1993. I was disappointed with the compilation of Sega games. Golden Axe without a second player was a big mistake. How come you had more data space and didn't have a co-op playability?

Great video! Covered a few US titles I was unaware of :)

So happy this came out during my breakfast routine a smoke and a coffe while watching yessssss!!!!!

Lunar was my official crack rock!

I always thought the redone voices on Streets of Rage were an improvement, but that redone Joe Musashi voice certainly is not.

In Sweden when my family bought the Sega Mega CD 2 bundle with Mega Drive 2, we got that updated Sega Arcade Classic(incl monaco GP) + Road Avenger. Still got thouse games to this day and recently bought a Mega CD 2 aswell as a Sega MultiMega to play them again. So I have started to collect the CD games again. Still in Sweden there werent as much buzz around the Sega CD platform and not many games in gamestores to find. I think one major reason for this was because home PC took over more and more and took focus from the 16-bit consoles. Sega didn´t do much marketing in Sweden so I remember only 1 Toystore sold the Mega CD 2, and they only had 1 unit aswell which we bought. Otherwise when Playstation was released there where only sold in PC stores to begin with in my town. One year later they where everywhere in every store. So Mega CD went under the radar for alot of people here sadly, and it required Playstation and N64 to get the consoles back on track again.

🤣🤣🤣 I frickin lost it when you were talking about Frankenstein!!

Having played Prime at San Diego comic con 1994 I can definitely say the game was rushed. Everything back then was due to everyone trying to be the next multi media property due to the success of Batman animated series or even x-men. Don’t even get me started on the Wild CATS cartoon

Sherlock Holmes actually had three cases to solve, not two.

Love your channel. Recently picked up a mega drive mini here in UK after your advice. Loving it!

FMV games weren't crap, as a kid in the 90s I was impressed with them at the time. It's all context. They might not hold up nowadays but not much does. Better scripts and acting would have changed that though and gave them better staying power.

Cool video you always do an outstanding job thanks.

I need to get on that Penguin Land game, looks like a massive hidden gem 👏

Kudos for the Batman Returns tune at the start. That particular track has always been a favourite of mine.

i love the sega cd. i hope they make sega cd mini one day.

microcosm looks like you're flying through a colon.

That Frankenstein game is pretty cool and I like all the mish mash of styles.

I would love to see a Sega CD version of Michael Jackson's Moonwalker with the actual song tracks

Dr. Frankenstein whooping that candy ass sounds like a great indie wrestler.

Nice video Lord . Love collections as well...

Another world is one of my favorites of all time. Heart of the alien compilation was THE reason I purchased my first sega cd. Heart of the alien was a disappointed for me also. I beat it once and that's it. I'm still not over what they did to Lester in heart of the alien!

More Sega CD coverage, please!

Streets of rage with Adam yelling OUYA!!! lol

0:36 yes that's the one I had when I got my model 2 Sega CD system for Christmas. I seem to recall it also came with Sewer Shark and that Sherlock Holmes collection as well.

I hope that one day it will be possible to use the structure of these compilations to create our own custom compilations. It seems absurd to me that nobody has tried so far.

I always thought Sega missed a real advantage with the Sega CD by not making more of these compilation games. They had a good library of in house games and could have even encourage other companies to make them. CD's were much cheaper than cartridges. Having cheap compilations could have help make the argument that the expensive Sega CD was worth the investment in the long run. They also could have done what Netflix did and had mail order rentals instead of the Sega Channel.

God bless Romhacking.net! Nice to throw out a mention mate! Being able to apply a patch to my copy of Sakura Wars and finally being able to play it in English was a joy to behold! Grandia on Saturn in English is coming soon too! Also worth checking out The legend of the Mystical Ninja sequels for Super Nintendo which recently got English translation patches. Wanted to play those bad boys for 20 something odd years! As soon as I found they got patched I messaged both my brothers and a few old skool gamer friends and got them on my SNES mini classic! Haha!! Happy days. Great video once again man. Keep em coming!

Super Monaco GP was so hard.

Heart of the Alien: Out of This World Parts I and II is def a "must-own" title for the Sega CD...hands-down the best way to play the classic that is Another World on a console (outside of the Amiga itself).

Great video!

10:13 If somebody can take that same engine and make a Resident Evil game for the Sega CD, that would be a AWESOME!

The best sega cd compilation was the music compilation that came with it. Im not sure if at some point they stopped packing that cd in with it but it is what i remember the most about that mostly disappointing console. I still have it in may parents attic to this day.

How many times do I have to watch a Sony advert, whilst watching a Sega based show? 😁

true dark history of sega

Going to be honest: I do not recall the martial arts battle between Victor Frankenstein and his creation. I may need to re-read the book. Also, I thought that the Sherlock Holmes disc had three cases. I would have to dig out my copy from wherever I stored it to be sure, though.

Joe Musashi change from Tom's scream (from Tom and Jerry) in the Genesis version to ninja puking in the Sega CD version

The Japan (and Asia?) region Mega Drive Mini systems have a mixed compilation release of the Game Can titles. Its either a unique compilation just for the Mini or it may have been something for their download-to-cart service Japan had, cant recall.

I'm disappointed that you talked about Ultraverse Prime but didn't mention that godly title theme

Awesome!!! Keep it up SEEEEEEGGGGGGAAAAAAA LORD X (sword slice) !!!!!!!!!!!!

The few games on here that I own, Dracula I had a lot of fun with believe it or not. And I enjoyed Sherlock Holmes and Heart of the Alien/Out of this World. All great game sim their own right.

Whos ready for streets of rage 4 this weekend

I remember getting the Sega CD for Christmas the year it came out and being incredibly underwhelmed by the music in that 4 in 1 disc.

I had the sega cdx it was awesome back then

02:44 If somebody can take that same engine and make a Panzer Dragoon game for the Sega CD, that would be a dream come true.

I remember getting the golden axe /ros/Sor/,Columns comp with road avenger when my mum bought us the mega cd.I was well impressed at the time with road avenger.Golden axe and ROS were worse than the cartridge versions.Some of the samples were worse and on golden axe s case, 1 player only.

11:29 "Soul Feace... MORE LIKE SOUL FECES!!!" - James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd}

It's a good video and the Sega CD is a good console. 😀👍🎮

how about Shining Force CD? thats an improved compilation of 2 GG games plus an extra. i had it! good game but hated that it used up so much memory space. forced me to buy the memory add on.

Prime looks like a lot with Death and Return of Superman, it even has the flying stages... But like u said, it's bad. Nice episode!

In the UK we got sol feace/cobra command double pack as our pack in game

Any chance you could do a review/long play of star wars on the 32x?

I like these videos bro

Ha ha ha! Get to prop my phone listen and watch while finishing my work and helping pass some time.

As an owner of the Genesis, Nintendo, Super Nintendo and Turbo Grafx 16 / Turbo Duo, it was the latter console I enjoyed the most. From Blazing Lasers to Military Madness and Ys Book I and II...all 👍🏻 🙌🏻. There were so many memorable games on that console, that I continue to find it strange that it was a flop for the most part, in North America.

I never knew about several of these and I'm a sega cd master race type of fan Jk But I did appreciate reading about the system back in the day and emulating it as soon as I had good enough internet to download the isos

You need to do a head to head of this Frankenstein game vs the Tim Curry Saturn game :)

Heart of the Alien, yeah, not so great. While I loved Out Of This World, aka, Another World, HotA was actually disowned by the creator Eric Chahi; that should mean something.

Teddy Boy... now there's a name I haven't heard in a LONG time!!

*Mega CD + Earnest Evans = FUN!

I bet there's a story behind that botched Golden Axe port.

All two “Mini Values Games in a Can” are available in the Japanese Mega Drive Mini (except for Phantasy Star Text Adventures)
