I came across two things today that reminded me of when gaming was just making the legends we know today in the video game world. To some of the younger crowd, (the ones that started their gaming careers on the ps2) you will never know of the days and long nights of playing Nwo vs WCW Revenge, or the joy of playing sonic for the first time, and thinking damnnnnnnn those graphics are sick!!!!, the things i came across were me original sega, and my neo geo, some of the heavyweight champs from my childhood now just sit in my closet collecting dust. Now i am not by any means a old geezer, (23), but when i showed my 6 year old cousin my sega , he laughed and asked me what it was, when i told him he asked if i had Guitar hero for it, i just sighed, hooked up my geo , and played one of my alltime fav's, Crash n' Burn, wow and did it ever bring back memories, thanks for reading ,
good day sir

If they could make a Guitar Hero for Genesis... damn, that'd be awesome. But all of the songs would have to be MIDIs. You should've taught that cousin of yours a lesson though, showed him his roots.

Thats the trouble with the gaming youth of today. Classic gaming is like a conundrum, its complicated for them to understand, unless it has (1) frentic gameplay, (2) online, (3)usual eye catching graphics, and general music (3) it must be something popular, everyone's gotta have it

Whenever I play Metroid Prime, Fusion or Zero, I feel like I always take a step back in time. Sure Prime may be in first person, but it will always be a side-scroller to me. its a great escape from the generic sci-fi "halo". Beyond that, its 10x better than that piece of paper can even defend itself.

To tell the truth, Metroid will always be my longtime fav, no matter how many years go by. Our 2D ventures must never be forgotten, and no one can take that away. Even with major sales.. its our interest and gaming heart that keeps this part of us alive.

The correct response to your cousin would have been to clock him upside the head with the Genesis, then turn to the camera and scream "SEGA!"
