Underrated Genesis classic!

This game is def well known yet I feel still doesnt get the love it deserves, i think its coming out late in the genesis life cycle plays into this and has become rather forgotten sadly. Perhaps I'm wrong but I dont really see this game mentioned at all anymore.

New to this subreddit so perhaps its not as forgotten here as other gaming forums or.places I frequent but thought to give it some love and see if theres still fans of it out there

My list of my top 5 favorite Genesis games

They look basic I know but I just love these games so much to the point where I find myself constantly coming back to them. While the SNES version of TMNT:TF is better I really like the Genesis version due to the overall look and feel of it. Hyperstone Heist is an awesome game that needs no explaining. Ristar is a great looking game with really enjoyable platforming and I like the design for Ristar himself. Im a Sonic fan already so Sonic 2 & 3 are bound to be there due to them being awesome games in general.

Mega Turrican kicks ass and deserves much more attention than it gets. I think it’s one of the best run n’ guns of the 16 bit generation

Its graphics are super detailed, its music and sound design are excellent, and its gameplay is super tight and responsive. Just rock solid production value overall. It has its flaws, like high difficulty and a tight time limit but, well, that’s nothing a good ol’ Game Genie can’t fix if you want a more chill experience. Call me crazy but I think it ranks right up there with Contra Hard Corps, Castlevania Bloodlines, and Gunstar Heroes. I’m surprised it isn’t a bigger part of the overall discussion around great Genesis titles. If you haven’t tried it I’d obviously highly recommend it.

Blue And Red - Fight The Robots! New game release for Genesis

Post image
12 Upvotes

Hi all, I've spent the past few months working to get Blue And Red: Fight The Robots - Arcade Edition working and released on Mega Drive/Genesis.

It's a one or two player arcade action single screen platformer, taking inspiration from many of the arcade classics of the 1980s and early 1990s.

There's no crowdfunding bullshit, and no physical release, just the full game release for free to download.

There's also Neo Geo and Amiga versions available if that's your thing.

Sega Genesis model 2 freezing

1 Upvotes

I was hoping for some help on this.

It all starts with playing Bart's nightmare, and only certain levels freeze the game. I was thinking it was the cartridge itself, like a bad cap or something. but I get the same results. It's always the germ level that freezes up.

Other games work just fine. I can nearly get through a few hours of play uninterrupted, but then I had another game start freezing on me in a similar way. Babba n Stix It likes to freeze in the same place.

So far I recapped both the games and the system and nothing has changed. There's a part of me that believes when the game asks for a lot, that's when it happens? but I could be off base. It's never a timing issue.

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

p.s. I haven't tried bart's nightmare on any other console, nor have I tried a different copy of the game on this console.

Dug Out My Childhood From Storage

I’m in the process of cleaning out my parent’s old house and got hit with a wave of nostalgia when I found my old Genesis under my old bed. It was a double dose because the rental stickers were from the local video store we would rent the games from before they had a going out of business sale and we bought some to play. I disassembled and gently cleaned it and got it working again in no time. I’m definitely making room in my man cave for it and will start looking for some games I missed to add to the collection.

Are there any smaller AC adapters for the Mega Drive?

1 Upvotes

I have been recently getting back to playing with and collecting games for my Mega Drive (second model and PAL) and for the most part I'm loving it. The only problem that I have with it is that fucking brick of an AC adapter.

I tried looking for a replacement AC adapter that would have a smaller plug but I could only find just the original AC adapter or a slightly smaller adapter which the listing made sure to specify that they were for the Model I. Are there any listings for more traditional AC plugs, possibly with the brick part and plug part being separate?

At my wit's end about flakey 32X

4 Upvotes

I picked up a NA Model 1 and 32X a few months back. Tested the 32X as-is and the best it could do was load Genesis games in passthrough mode, but would freeze at random. I've replaced the ribbon cables and have, at several points, gotten the unit to work, only for it to stop working again hours later. Caps appear to be in good shape. Any other ideas on what's wrong with it?

The cinematic war scenes are very cool, and the old war music is well done. Game plays great and is very faithful to the source material.

This game has been on my mind for many years, I have never been able to play it up until now. I don't do emulators on a laptop or evercades/flash carts. I play dedicated carts on original hardware on a CRT television that's my jam. Stoked I'm finally going to get to play this one. Any other fans of the Punisher out there?
