My beloved Sega Genesis was the first console I ever had. I loved it until it was stolen from my house, I was a 6 years old crying because my console was gone, then my older brother told me, do not worry, there's a console that works with cds, and the controller has geometric symbols, after a few weeks my mom bought us the Playstation, and I grew up with that beauty. But the Genesis has a special place in my hearth, I remember playing Shinobi III, Eswat and many other games, now thanks to emulation I can relive those beautiful times

Absolutely. I would have been crushed too if mine was stolen as it's such a great thing to play. But If you want the console back you can get them relatively cheap from second hand exchange stores. I have around 50 games from the 90s on my original console but have most on emulation now so I can dip into the whole library of them whenever I want. 👍

World of Illusion is one of the most underrated Disney games out there. Remember spending hours at my friend's house trying to finish it with two players. Yeah not the most complex soundtrack you'll ever hear but I think it has a memorable charm. The value pack cartridges are where it really shines, you can get a bunch of really good games bundled together.

Oh dear God yesssss!!! Biohazard Battle (Crying in Japan) is still to this day one of my favourite games ever, and you hardly ever see anyone talking about it. EVERY Genesis/Megadrive owner should have this, and if you down own a Genesis, buy one to play this game. Also Landstalker is awesome, but the entire series is niche and under-the-radar because people don't realise this is one of the few isometric games in the entire history of mankind that DOES actually control well. Dark Saviour is surprisingly cheap for a Saturn RPG, and nobody ever bothered to fan-translate Ladystalker on the SNES (although, seeing as its Japanese, with a title like that it could be ANYTHING.) The only thing I disagree with is you're view on Streets of Rage 2, people shouldn't buy it because its better than the prequel, people should buy it because to this day it is still the greatest and most replayable scrolling beat-em-up ever made. SOR2 is to the 2D Final Fight genre what Super Mario World is to platformers, unarguably the greatest one of all time, even now coming up to 30 years later they are yet to be surpassed. TOTALLY undersold how important picking that game up is, but another great video nonetheless.

This was a nice surprise. I thought it was going to be you regaling us of your first 10 Genesis games (which I'd also be interested in watching, if you haven't already done so), but I liked what you did here. Going with the 6-pak is cheating, if ever so slightly, but it does give folks a good starting point. A couple on this list I don't have, and didn't know they were so cheap, so I may have to track those down. I was surprised to not see Sonic 2 on the list, but I generally prefer the 1st game anyway, so strictly from a personal preference standpoint, that doesn't bother me. Everyone knows about Sonic anyway, and it seems like an obvious choice.

When I was older, and retrieved the Mega Drive from a Car Boot Sale, it came complete with two joysticks and my first and second favourite Mega Drive Games: Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and Sonic the Hedgehog 2. To make up a collection of five Mega Drive Games I was happy with, the other three games in the line-up were Castle of Illusion, World of Illusion and Aladdin. Those are the best five Mega Drive Games I've ever played.

I honestly don’t remember the first 10 games I played on the Sega Genesis, but I remember that when my family purchased a Genesis it came packaged with Altered Beast. I remember when Sonic came out _that_ became the game packaged with the Genesis, but Sega allowed people who purchased the system prior to the release of Sonic to call a 1-800 number and they were mailed a free copy of Sonic. That’s how my family got the game. But for the most part I was a spectator watching my dad play rented games on the system and only played a couple that were available to us until the Sega Channel was released.

My first 12 genesis games in order (roughly) were: Sonic the Hedgehog Altered Beast Strider Shining in the darkness Terminator 2 the arcade Game Streets of Rage Shining Force Landstalker Rocket Knight Adventures Phantasy Star IV Shadowrun Contra Hardcorps i think that is a pretty epic list of games, besides Terminator 2 and Altered Beast (which I only got because it was like 5 bucks). I think what happend is we got the Genesis pretty soon after Sonic was the pack in, and then my parents let us get 2 other cheap games (Beast and Strider) like within the week. Me and my brother knew we liked RPGs like pen and paper dungeons and dragons and dragon warrior on the NES, so we got the first Shining. We would rent a lot of games and that is what led us to buy Streets and Shining Force and Landstalker and Rocket Knight. My Dad bought us T2 cause he liked the movies and so did we but we never rented it and yeah thats why it's like the one bad game on here. I bought Phantasy Star IV and Contra on day one because I was such a fan of those series, was not dissapointed.

I got my Genesis a couple of years ago, but I decided to get Duke Nukem 3D as my first game. A week later I find Sonic 1 at Goodwill. I love this console!

Alright, I was a blessed kid. I remember getting the Sega Fighting System for Christmas in I want to say 1992. Then the Snes for Christmas in 1993 with A Link to the Past. Incredible mornings

I already have a Genesis and 32X, and just over half the games I have are loose cartridges. CIB: Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Wheel of Fortune, Home Alone, Paperboy, Stargate, Bubsy II*, Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition, Star Wars Arcade, Virtua Racing Deluxe Loose: Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Virtua Racing, Road Rash, Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat II, Ultimate Mortal Kombat III, Vectorman, Super Street Fighter II, Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure, Beavis & Butt-Head, Shinobi III, Sonic Spinball, Virtua Fighter, Virtua Fighter II I've had some of these games since I was a kid. Some came with the Genesis unit I have now (Not my childhood system). Some were gifts. The rest I bought at a flea market or on eBay. *I don't have the first Bubsy except for the Steam re-release, and that was a port of the Super NES version.
