20 Years LttP: Sega Genesis Namakubi | 11:45 PM on 01.28.2009 13 comments

I was a Nintendo kid growing up. To be honest, most of the kids I knew growing up were Nintendo kids, owning the original NES and SNES, swapping games like Super Mario Kart and Donkey Kong Country. I think I only knew one kid that had a Sega Genesis in Elementary school. And I have no regrets about it. I'm PROUD that I grew up with Nintendo in the house instead of Sega. But for years, it was always in the back of my mind that someday, SOMEDAY, I would pick up a Genesis when the time and price was right. Cut to 15 years later. After the utter bombardment of quality titles that hit this past holiday season, January has looked pretty dry. February and March will have some crazy good games coming out, to be sure, but this past month has been slow. I realized my monthly budget for new games was collecting dust, so I thought it might be fun to pick around in a few pawn shops for a weekend. What did I find in the first one I went to? A Genesis 2, all chords and controller, for fifteen bucks. Sonic 1 and World of Illusion with Mickey and Donald, both a dollar each. It was more than I could bear. I walked up to the front, handed the guy the merchandise, and bought them all for under $18. I then pilfered a few more pawn shops and used game stores, coming up with this list of merchandise: -Sonic 2 -Sonic Spinball -Castlevania Bloodlines -Contra Hard Corps -Comix Zone -Ghouls N' Ghosts -Adventures of Batman and Robin -Vectorman 2 -Dynamite Headdy I'm really excited, I'm getting to re-live an entire console's library, all for the very first time. So far, these are the titles I haven't bought yet but am guaranteed to eventually: -Rocket Knight Adventures -Gunstar Heroes -Ristar -Vectorman -Sonic 3 / Knuckles -Chakan -Aladdin -Streets of Rage 2 -Shinobi 3 So I now turn this to you, fellow D-Toiders, what other titles should I pick up? I'm thinking more hidden gems than the former AAA titles, any suggestions? And lets keep this at Genesis exclusives. If it's good and multi-platform, chances are that I own it on my SNES already.
