Shoutout to Sega Lord X's mom, for working hard, getting him a genesis, wich resulted in us getting this S tier sega content

I was a Sega Kid . My cousin was an SNES kid . In 1992 we had many “debates” on who was cooler, but at the end of the day we loved it all when we went to each other’s houses

Being at Sears in the mall around Christmas 1992......man what a magical time. It's not REMOTELY the same anymore

1992 was a great year for the 16-bit era.

I remember the day mum bought us SoR2 in the town and sitting in the coffee shop after drooling over the box art and smelling the fresh new manual, barely able to contain myself until I got home in a few hours.

Damn hard to believe its been 30 years but 1992 was a golden era for us megadrive owners, truly wish i could go back ❤️

I got my Genesis for Christmas 1989. Still have it, and still works.

In the early 90’s my time was split between Genesis, SNES & the TurboGrafx-16. I still have all my consoles and games from those days. Such a magical time.

As much as I loved Sega Genesis I got my Super Nes for X-mas 1992. I didn't get my own until X-mas 1994 along with Sonic 2, Sonic 3 , and Sonic and Knuckles. The real driving force behind me wanting a Genesis so bad aside from a majority of my friends in High School having one as their main 16-bit home console was that I wanted Contra Hard Corps which my mom took me to Kay-Bee Toys to get 3 days after Christmas that and I was a huge Konami fan and wanted to see what they could do on the Sega Genesis. Later on in March of 1995 I sent away to get a free game in the mail from Sega that game was Greatest Heavyweights and I was loving it. Later that year I let my cousin borrow my Genesis for a week which sadly his older sister took it to a pawn shop and sold it. I traded my entire NES console, accessories, and games I had at the time to Funcoland around Christmas time in 1995 to get another Genesis console along with Vectorman and Gunstar Heroes. I wanted a Playstation 1 but I didn't have enough in store credit.

I remember buying ToeJam & Earl in a pawn shop, just the cartridge, didn't know anything about it. Best purchase I ever made.

I remember getting Sonic 2, World of Illusion, Splatter house 2 and Streets of Rage 2 for Xmas in 92. Good times

92 really was a magical year for Mega Drive owners, so many great memories

I remember sneaking and snooping in my parents back room a few months before Christmas in 1991 and finding a brand new copy of Streets Of Rage I was getting for Christmas that year. The next year I remember counting down the weeks for Golden Axe 2's arrival.

Your channel is so nostalgic it makes me sad I can’t re live my childhood playing these games!! Thank you sir, your channel is awesome!!

Nice shoutout to Hyperstone Heist! One of the best TMNT games 🎮

I was fortunate. I got my Genesis in December 90 on my birthday, and I got my SNES on Xmas day 91. So going into 92 I had both. In Summer of 92 on my SNES I got Street Fighter II, and got Turtles in Time in December on my birthday in 92. On my Sega Genesis I got Sonic 2 sometime during the Fall of 92 and I got Streets of Rage 2 on Xmas day 92. In early 93 I ended up getting that Joe Montana Sports Talk Football game on my Genesis and I got Super Double Dragon on my SNES.

Yeah, that was a good time to be a Genesis owner. I clearly didn't know what I was doing whenever I played Joe Montana 2. I didn't get to play Bio-Hazard Battle until many years later, and I liked it instantly. The unusual setting and unique soundtrack really resonated with me. I love the strange music in that game. And speaking of good music, I got much more than my money's worth out of Captain America & The Avengers. I was into Marvel comics at the time, though not the Avengers, and I loved beat-em-up games, so I ordered it through the mail as soon as I saw it existed. The included pin was a nice bonus too. I had never seen the arcade version, but a friend told me about it. I was very familiar with Sega's Spider-Man arcade game and was hoping for an approximation of that. In that way, I was a bit disappointed, but I ended up really liking the game for what it was and played it a ton. I didn't know it got mixed or poor reviews. It's worth repeating how awesome the music in it is. I wanted to like Sunset Riders, but I have the worst time seeing those bullets. Like Bio-Hazard Battle, I didn't get to play Streets of Rage 2 until many years later. I played a ton of the first game, so my urgency to get it was low. I wanted to get it, but it was one of those games that just passed me by for whatever reason. But it is indeed a massive improvement. It was rare to see a sequel be four times the size of its predecessor in terms of data, and it showed. I greatly enjoy Hyperstone Heist. Turtles in Time on the SNES has a lot going for it too, and is better in a lot of ways. But I vastly prefer the arcade-like FM synth music in the Genesis game. Luckily, thanks to hacks, I can put the arcade music into Turtles in Time. And as for Sonic 2, all I can say is that getting it and playing it that Christmas was magic. What a great game and sequel.

I used to buy all the UK gaming magazines back in '92. I remember one particular reviewer having a meltdown over Sonic 2. The text of the review was just "look at the graphics!!! and then a double-page spread of screenshots. Goodtimes.

Man I can still remember the excitement of getting some of these games for Christmas or my birthday. The 90s was a great time to be a gamer

My family got our Genesis Xmas 1992. We were working class. But my mom worked a shit load of overtime and gave us a great Xmas. We got the Sonic 2 pack in with Joe Montana 93 and Taz-mainia. Best Christmas ever.

This was the Christmas before I got my Genesis and would just stare at the magazine pictures drooling, this video was rad!

I love being able to relive my memories of the Sega Genesis. Thank u Sega Lord X

Amazing stroll down memory lane

I wanted to like Ecco so badly. I honestly cannot imagine getting through it. It would be an experiment of torture.

I remember getting Sonic The Hedgehog 2 for Christmas in 1992. We had gotten a Sega Genesis when Sega packed Sonic The Hedgehog in so 1991.

Christmas of '92 was when we finally got our own Genesis with Sonic 1 & 2! We've been our friends Genesis prior to then, but it was so nice to have own one. Said friend let us borrow about a dozen or so of his games and he had some good titles in there.

I didn't get my Genesis in till 1994, when I was in the 4th grade. My grandma got me the model 1 console.

I remember all too well getting Ecco for christmas, I had it the year later though. The dark waters traumatised me when I was 7. I remember getting a cheat code because of how difficult it was and when I saw the horror of the last boss it gave me nightmares. It took me till I was in my mid 20's to revisit it on emulation (save states) to finally beat it and it still made my skin crawl when I got to those dark water levels. Survival horror is such a perfect description for this game, I never looked at it this way before but it makes perfect sense!!

My parents got me Sonic 2, Super Nintendo, and Street Fighter II in Christmas 1992.

Christmas 1992 cemented my love for gaming, got Sonic 2 and Streets of Rage 2 the same year.

I got a Super Nintendo for Christmas 93 or 94 from my mom. It’s by far that Christmas gift I got as a kid, I have the most and clearest memory’s of. I really really wished for it, but had not much hope, cause I knew it was pricy. Packing it out and seeing the box was a great feeling I remember well 😄

I got my Sega Genesis on Christmas of '92. I was 11. That experience made me a hardcore Sega fan to this day.

Just getting Sonic 2 and Streets of Rage 2 in 92 made it incredible year for Genesis fans. Looking at the list you made, I also realized in retrospect, that my friends gave me games that they wanted to play at my house for Christmas or my Birthday, so they could play them when we had sleep overs. That’s literally the only reason I own any sports games outside of NBA Jam. As always, this was another great video with high quality information and presentation, thanks for bringing back such great memories!

Man, I really liked playing through Ecco as an adult. Amazingly immersive story and gameplay. Infuriating but immersive.

I got my Genesis in Christmas of 1992, I was 8 years old. Wow I just told my age, any way Sonic 1 and 2 were the games I got that Christmas. Aaaah nostalgia we meet again.

'92 was a helluva year.

The Lord has Spoken once again, delivering pure Sega Goodness:-))

My first Genesis was the Lion King bundle back then :')

Sonic 2, Streets of Rage 2 and TMNT. Great year with just those 3 games alone. I got a Genesis in January 1993, and those were some of the games I played immediately. My cousin and I played Hyperstone Heist all the time when our families would get together.

I remember getting Sonic 2 that Christmas and that was all I played for like 2 months straight. As for Super Wrestlemania, sure it's not as good as what came after, but compared to Wrestlemania on NES it was a HUGE step in the right direction. I loved it at the time as I too was a Wrestling fan in that era and used to go with my Dad and Uncle to Wrestling events when they came around. I saw guys like Ted DiBiase, Shawn Michaels (both as a singles wrestler and in The Rockers) and even Macho Man and Hulk Hogan in person, then on TV, then play as the most realistic looking versions (for the time) of them on my Genesis. Life was good.

Me and my friends would do all nighters on gain ground, toejam & earl, streets of rage, and watch each other wipe out in road rash 2. Those were the days, the gaming industry, and life, was so much simpler back then.

My now step-dad had just started dating my mom at the time. My brothers (our ages 11, 8 (me), and 6) and I got a Sega Genesis for Christmas 1992 from Doug. We still joke that he tried to buy our love with that purchase. But it was our first system we actually would get games for (after our Game Boys). We just had Sonic 1, but got Sonic 2 for my birthday a few months later. That's all we wanted for longest time! We loved those games. We would rent games occasionally and borrow them, but missed out on basically all of this and everything before these games came out. Go 49ers, I love seeing you beat the Cowboys with them in every licensed nfl game ! :D

Love that you gave some shine to Bio-Hazard Battle! Atmosphere and especially the soundtrack in that game is absolutely amazing!

1992 was a great year for the megadrive. when they used the bigger cartridges some excellent games came out

Lol my mom was the same way. I never got hardly anything during the year but she always did well on birthdays & Xmas.

SLX's mom is a good one !!

Weekend as a kid ment going to blockbuster and renting a new game. The smell of popcorn and kids talking about the latest game. Cover art was how we would usually Jude a game. Such simple and joyful day's. Today's game haven't got the same soul. Maybe I'm getting old and sour perhaps. But most games today are violence and dark. Pixel art always warms my heart.

In April 1993 I received the *_SEGA Mega Drive II Jurassic Park Bundle_* and a *_6-Button Arcade Pad_* which my Dad purposely kept in his room. While taking turns playing Sonic the Hedgehog 2 with my brother. We were wondering if a 2nd player could be Tails if we had another controller. That's when Dad casually tells me that I still had another present on the table that I hadn't open yet. Which he put there while we were playing the game and partially concealed it behind some discarded wrapping paper. Oh what a great day that was. Side note on the back of the Mega Drive II Jurassic Park Bundle box the Sonic 2 description used a Sonic 1 screen shot. I had barely played Sonic 1 when I got the Mega Drive. So for a while I thought it was some secret level hidden in the game.

Didnt Street Fighter 2 come out around this time to? I think I got it that Christmas...92' was a follow up year. Devlopers were adding more memory and games were getting more bigger, better and pushed hardware harder. I would say 92' was the dawn of the height of the Genesis. Hitting full stride in 93-94. Awesome memories!!! Thanks for the good time recall.

Such a cherished moment in my life when my parents got it for me that Christmas we never was the richest like you said but they made sure they got me they system they knew how bad I wanted it !!! Definitely a Sega Kid!!!! 1992 was such a great year to be a kid!!!!! Bio Hazard Battle was so good loved that game!!!!!

Theses are all great games. I have most of them. Sega was on a roll back then.

I remember that christmas. I got sonic 2, TMNT hyped stone heist and Madden 93. Best christmas EVAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Holy cow. These 60 days have 2 of my top Genesis games, and an additional one of my personal favourites! I think World of Illusion is a real hidden gem on the Genesis for anyone who doesn't mind games on the easier/shorter side. Tons of fun!

I just searched for the best games of 1992 and you have just released this little gem, cheers!

Really enjoy your videos. Not because I'm that much into video games anymore - but because I can hear your honesty and appreciation. 👍

Absolutely love the genesis. This was the year at the end I got sega visions magazine in summer of 92. Seeing these games in the magazine I couldn’t wait to get some. I feel that 89-91 was so good for the genesis pre sonic bringing arcade sega ports home and 92-93 is when developers knew the system and pushed it to the limits bringing so many great games to the genesis. Man I’m so glad I bought an actual genesis again. Live my system and the model 2 tower of power lol

I got my Genesis on Christmas of 1989 to, too many good memories. Great video.

Love this video! Looking foward to more holidays themed release day games vids

Xmas '92 was the exact day an 8 year old me received a prezzie that would kickstart my fandom of Sega, when I received a huge box which contained a Sega Megadrive, complete with a 3 button control pad and also a copy of Sonic The Hedgehog (Also kicked off my fandom of STH!) Still worked when I sadly lost the console in 2019... Albeit with a semi-broken power slider. I bloody LOVED that console, and spent many, MANY hours on that machine! If I ever win the lottery, or something like that, I will revisit my fandom of everything Sega ^_^

Dude, Love your videos. Thanks for making them, and so frequently at that!

Great video, bringing me to back to childhood youth. Nothing can replace the memories of my brother and I playing many of these games everyday until the late hours of the night. Thank for giving me the chance to remember those times. Also maybe make a Sega Saturn holiday season video next.

Just what I needed, a perfect video from Lord Sega X, thanks for the awesome content!!!!

I like how he included Chakan. It's obviously been many years since I last played it but most of the hate towards it was because people found it too hard. I personally liked it a lot.

Christmas of '92 was pretty huge for me because it's when I got my SNES. I was always more of a Nintendo kid, but my neighbors had a Genesis since '91, so we basically went back and forth from each other's houses so no one was deprived.

Man, that christmas me my brother got Road Rash II and NHL Hockey 93. Those were the days.

Love the Road Rash tunes playing at the beginning. A most excellent choice.

Christmas 1992…Super Nintendo baby!!! That unboxing as a kid was sweet!!!! Now I’m 38 and my SNES is collecting dust with some yellow…anyone feel me? 🙁 Sega was also my favorite, but thinking of taking it apart and modding my old system with a retropie…it will take some work though

Great Content. 92-93 was the best times in my Genesis days. The power you felt holding a Genesis cartridge felt different back then. You can imagine playing the game in your head before playing it in real life and it was way better in you head 😆

Road Rash II was sooooo good. For me the beats of this were more distinctive than the first

1992 was a great time for 16bit games. It only get better from there.

I was born in 1992, but a lot of these games were the first games I played as my older brother had a sega megadrive

My childhood 😎 can’t thank my amazing parents enough.

Despite being both a Sega Genesis and SNES kid in 1992, my favorites were definitely “Streets Of Rage 2”, “Sonic The Hedgehog 2”, “Steel Empire” “World Of Illusion: Starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck” and “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist” on Sega Genesis from 1992 and whatever!

It's funny that Motley Crue pinball came out in 1992. By that point, Grunge had taken over and Motley Crue were quickly becoming yesterday's news.

Got 4 of these games in 92, unbelievable.

Some of my favorite childhood memories are playing Sonic Spinball with my mom. She felt safe buying me sonic games when i was super young and that’s what first got me into gaming. She saw me playing spinball and saw there was multiplayer and decided to give it a try with me. We played every Sunday together after dinner. Love you, Mom!

SoR2 is a masterpiece. The Soundtrack takes me back to living with my mother when I was in 1st grade. The Nostalgia is real

Christmas 1992 was awesome. A Genesis and a SNES the same day. For me, though, 1994 was probably my favorite Genesis year for Christmas. Street Fighter II SCE and Sonic and Knuckles. I primarily rented for SNES but had SFII and Mario.

1992 was the very best year for the MD. So many excellent games. It was mind blowing. In Europe (and Japan) we also got Thunder Force IV, btw.

Christmas of 92 is when I got my Genesis. Wonderful memories. It was so hard to act surprised when I went to unwrap it. My parents had just barely run out of wrapping paper so when my 13 year old self picked-up the extra joystick I could just barely see the middle of the Genesis logo and immediately knew the bigger box had to be the system.

I have never been a "only this brand" console gamer. I love them all. I am a gamer who loves games. Every console has always had exclusives...so I have always needed all consoles.

wow what a great slice of time. the theme for this vid really hit. hope you do more.

1992 was a great year indeed! My best friend at the time has the SNES and we played a lot of SF2! I wanted to get a SNES but then SOR 2 came out and I was blown away by its graphics (I knew it would sound good!) 16 megabits really showed what the Genesis (& SNES) could really do! I kept the Genesis & got games of it instead!

Great video, thank you SegaLordX

30yrs ago today Santa brought me a Sega Genesis and my love for video games began. Man, What a ride so far!

Miss those years so much, no game hyping BS, games come out and we would be cought by surprise, we would be amazed by watching a game play on a store or over add on tv. Man... wish I could go back!

Fond memories of 92 as well. New Years eve, my brother and I had worked hard all morning cleaning our rooms. My Mum had got enough money together to treat us, and sent us off to buy a game together. We saw World of Illusion, both agreed it was better to buy one good game, and that New Years we sat together playing the game through to completion.

Christmas Day 1992 was the day I was born, so I just had to click this. Once again, Sega Lord X did not disappoint. June 19, 2022 6:14 pm

Man how I wish I even knew that the Master System existed as a kid! I had a Game Gear & still had no idea the Master System even existed! Had never seen one nor any games for sale anywhere. Had never even heard the name before. Just goes to show how poorly advertised it was in the U.S. I had my Game Gear well before my Genesis.

I was a Snes kid at the time, but I often went to a friends house in order to play some Genesis and this video finally explains why in that particular Christmas season school break, every day I visited my friend he had some new game that either his parents bought for him or that he had rented at the video club. So many releases in such a short amount of time.

What a great episode, what a great year.

World of Illusion was one of the best co op experiences i had a kid. Thanks for the nostalgia!

I really slept on just how great 1992 was for gaming as a whole. SNES was off the charts and the Genesis definitely put out a fair share of quality as well.

Great job SLX!

I was too young to go to the arcades plus they were also considered very dangerous back in 1992 because there will literally be fights all the time so I couldn’t experience the street fighter, mortal kombat and neo Geo arcade game craze but thankfully 1992 gave us Sonic 2, streets of rage 2, Super Mario kart, Zelda link to the past and of course the snes home port of street fighter 2 world warrior which had 6 year old me go crazy over

Lord... you made my day

Love this vid! Should do more on remembering the year and game you anticipated as kid. As I'm having flashbacks watching makes me think we gotta be about same age lol.

Xmas 1992 is the year I remember wanting Sonic 2 and Taz-Mania for Game Gear really bad.

Thanks for cataloguing these memories for us Genesis fans. I don't remember which games I had in 92 but I know Streeets of Rage 2 was among them. I had Hyperstone Heist too at some point when I owned a Genesis. I'm glad that the Cowabunga collection is coming soon and I'll be able to play Hyperstone Heist again. I'd love to see a review of the new TMNT Shredders Revenge from you. Its an amazing homage to these great games of the 90's.
