You know, if dogs could talk, and if you really DID name him/her that, then he/she would tell himself/herself not to respond to that name in a way that only comic strips are allowed to do.
Many kids of my generation bought a Genesis for EA NHL games (early ones). There was this huge hockey boom in the early 90s and everyone who had a Genesis, had these games. SNES port was not up to par.
love the stories about your grandfather. That's great. I'm about your age but I have zero experience of anyone from our grandparents generation playing video games. My dad is 63 and he plays games. My dad and I have been playing games together since the very late 80's and early 90's, and recently we got a switch. Playing mario kart 8 and puyo puyo tetris together really rekindles the nostalgia for the nes/snes/64 days. He also has become obsessed with BOTW, which is so cool because he hasn't gotten deeply into a single player adventure like that for over a decade.
This is probably my favourite video by far! Wow, I love listening to stories such as times spent with family and gaming. Golden time really, spent with important people. Thanks for sharing this experience m8! It also reminds me of my early childhood and gaming with important people in my life. Cheers Pete!!
Love hearing your personal stories and memories Pete. So interesting and relaxing to listen to. Please stay with us and keep the pace up. You had a awesome grandfather. My father was and is also in to gaming. I have fond memories playing MERCS on the Megadrive together with him on Christmas day. I also was a SEGA kid and my best friend had a SNES. Greetings from the Netherlands.
I'll never forget sneaking into my parents closet and seeing my Christmas present being a Genesis. I still had 2 of the longest weeks of my life holding onto the secret of knowing and absolutely dying to play. Before then my parents would rent the system from Blockbuster here and there. NES just wasn't cutting it anymore. 91 was the Genesis Christmas. Basically my Red Rider bb gun
Wow an oldie who played video games :P That's rare. My first memory of playing video- games with a relative was with the Gamecube. My two cousins had Animal Crossing hooked up; a sim-game. The NPCs had their own lives. It was late at night, and Monique or Mitzi (or the B&W cat?) fell asleep on their doorstep. That was just spectacular. The realization that there are alternative genres to gaming (vs platformers/shooters) was a pretty memorable moment in my life tbhq

I remember going to my grandparent's house and playing the genesis. The console was originally my grandfather's and while I never had a genesis at my parent's house, I do remember playing the genesis quite a bit. Super Hang-On and the Sonic games were classics for my younger self. I also remember playing DJ Boy, Super Thunder Blade, and Toejam and Earl (a game that was very funky to me as a kid because of its open world feel). Early 2013 my grandfather passed away and ever since then I have kept his genesis and games. I honor my grandfather every year by playing the genesis games that I grew up with.
Thanks for sharing! I love to hear people's gaming memories. I grew up a Nintendo kid, but one of my best friends had a Genesis. So I kinda got the best of both worlds : grew up playing the Square rpg, but also played the Phantasy Star games and the Shining Force ones! Also : agreed that Two Crude Dudes is a pretty good beat 'em up! Lots of brutal stuff you can pull off in that game
Man Psygnosis had some of my favorite box cover art for all their games. Just so sick, reminds me of my Heavy Metal magazine collection that was passed down to me.
Great video Pete. Im glad to see you making videos again. Always puts a smile on my face to hear about others gaming memories and it reminds me of gaming in my childhood. I didn't own a Genesis until about mid 2009. I played a baby sitters sons Genesis after school and that went on for about a year or two until his family moved to south Texas. Played all the well known titles on the Genesis and SNES in the 90's. Had an SNES and if memory serves me right my dad bought me and my brother an SNES for Christmas or our birthdays in 1992. The bundle he got had Super Mario game packed in. The games put out for the Genesis still holds up very well today to me. I have many good memories playing the Genesis and still play retro games to this day and i don't see myself stopping gaming any time soon. I would like to see you do a video about your memories with the Game Boy, Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64. I have fond memories playing all three of those systems. I didn't have an NES as a kid but played my cousins for years until i got my own NES in think it was 2010.
I bought my own SNES but my best friend had a Genesis. We would swap systems every once in a while and man I loved the Genesis. He now likes the Genesis more, but back then he was a huge SNES fan so he eventually asked me to trade him systems permanently. Man I never regretted that trade once. I still have SNES and play it a lot, but I play my Genesis more and have the most fun with it. Apart from the PS2 and Wii the Genesis is one of my favorite consoles of all time.
We were a nintendo family and I made my best friend (still to this day) because he had a sega. I remember seeing or playing Altered Beast on a kiosk at a toy story and wanted to pay sega so badly.
He recently made a new podcast called Retro Game Explorers, but I think he stopped making that one too, but still you might want to check that out on iTunes or wherever else you can get it.
I got a very clear memory of me and my best friends playing 2 player altered beast and golden axe , I was blown away by the genesis. We also play a lot of ghouls and ghost and last battle
Man, I've never heard of the SEGA channel hey. I live in Australia so yeh we don't have cable or certain things you guys have but it sounds really interesting hey. I'd love to watch some vids on it hey. B great if there was a doco or something on it. Thanks so much for sharing that with us. I had a Gamegear too! There was a cool RPG called Battle Axe or Axe Battle it wasn't Golden Axe but a Zelda like RPG. I've since played it on my Raspberry Pi and its okay but go check it out if u can it may be an exclusive I'm not sure but didn't ever see it on MS.
Sega for life! still have my Saturn, Dreamcast, and og xbox, with all the shenmues and panzer dragoons. also without Sega Channel i wouldnt have beat as many games as i did as a kid, great times. i feel so lucky looking back.

He has 2 million subs at one point. His channel was very huge, but he needed a break so all the fakes left. All his true fans stayed and waited for a new video.
Got a Genesis in 1993 after watching the "I heard Mac got a Sega Genesis" commercial. I've been a lifelong SEGA fan since 1991. Owned both versions of MK1 for SNES and Genesis.
I remember coming home from school and my mom had a Sega Genesis waiting for me and my bro. We weren’t even expecting it. So awesome. Sonic 2 blew our minds. So cool your grandpa was a gamer.
My first console was the Genesis and I loved it and I did get a Dreamcast in it's final year on the market and it's become my favorite console of all time and it's exciting games are still made for the Genesis and Dreamcast!
Great video, so cool to hear your history. I was a Sega kid growing up to so it's awesome to see how it impacted us in different ways. Also love the AGG shirt, miss the podcast :)
My grandfather bought a ton of atari games when i was in 4th grade and kept them in his closet. Everytime i had a decent report card he would let me pick a game out of collection.
Great vid Pete! The Sega Genesis was my very first console, so many memories. I just recently picked up the Sega Genesis Classics on my PS4 man is it a trip down memory lane.
Bio hazard battle is very underrated co op shooter for the system. Very fun and still very cheap. I think any genesis owner should own it for co op alone.
Hey Pete Great video, I got into video Games from watching my uncles play at my grandparents house. My uncle gave me a nes as a gift with all. Their old games and it was one of the happiest days of my life. I. Still. Remember the moment I got. The games from. Him. And the consol was a top loader nes.
I'd LOVE to hear you talk the other consoles and your memories associated with them :D I started playing the Genesis around 1989/1990 at my cousin's house and I eventually got a Model 2 around 1995, I think? I had an amazing childhood, growing up with such games as Vectorman 2, Streets of Rage 2, Sonic 2, Shinobi III, Toy Story, Shining Force I-II, Phantasy Star IV, Ghouls n' Ghosts, Batman, Ghostbusters, Dick Tracy, Two Crude Dudes, and SO.MUCH.MORE.
Sega kid too.First console was game gear and sonic 2.At the time all my friends had gameboy, which till that time was very nice.But imagine my joy and awe when i put sonic 2 on the game gear and saw the color graphics and the sound Seeegaaa.Simply amazing!Scarred for life!
My grandparents didn't care for video games, but they would still buy them for me, my brother and my cousins if we asked for them for Christmas. I remember one of my cousins getting Mortal Kombat II on the SNES for Christmas and my parents getting upset because of the violence. My parents didn't like that game or any game with blood/gore in it. My uncle got upset at my parents for making a big deal out of it. He said "I think my son is old enough to know it's just a video game and he's not going to go out and kill someone because he saw it in a video game" and my parents said "Well, I don't let my kids play those kinds of games at home" . (Needless to say, I had the game and they didn't know it LOL)
I was a Commodore and Spectrum Kid and a SEGA Teen, i was 13 when i got the Mega-Drive, i'm from the UK, SEGA Mega-Drive/Genesis, is my favourite console of all time, and the Master System is my second, and the C64 is my favourite Micro Computer.
Grew up as a huge SEGA fanboy...got my Master System in 89 and my Mega-Drive in 1992. It literally broke my 12 year old heart in 1998 when I found out that SEGA was dying...have been a Sony fan since then. Thx for the video Pete!
Thanks so much for making videos for your fans on this shitty site Pete! I have similar memories with my Grandpa. He was a gamer too. He exposed me to donkey kong and mario for snes and then he got hugely addicted to tomb raider for ps1 and played it and beat it over and over again. Everytime I visited he was playing tomb raider and I got to watch and he would let me play. I remember buying him every tomb raider game that was out at the time off of ebay and putting them all in a big CD case with the manuals and the cutouts. Beautiful memories but also sad that they are just memories now
Hey Pete, just wanted to say that I enjoy listening to you while a study here at Missouri State. It definitely calms my nerves when it comes to the stress of college. Thanks for doing what you do, and I look forward to MOAR SONIC R. I wanna see that GC Highscore with your name on it! Keep it real, man.
I wish sega did a collections on ps4 blueray but stacked it not like what capcom did with megaman where the ps2 disc has more titles than the blueray. I had no idea there was a sega channel. lol that sounds familiar but not fully. I got to research it.
the microphone right in front of your face is very distracting. it's all my eyes could focus on. also what the fuck is up with all gen gamers it been over a year since the last podcast.
July 2023. I love this video! Having it on repeat in the background as I'm working. RIP to Pete's grandparents!! I get EXACTLY what you mean with the dust; I have things from my childhood that I want preserved, so I keep them in the exact state that they always were: dust and all. Love these style of videos
I'm pretty sure it was Christmas 1992, my parents remortgaged the house and we (me and my two brothers) got so much stuff that year (romote control cars & cassette recorders, transformers) but I asked for a Sega Mega Drive instead of a bike as my main present. I think this was a pretty big decision but we did own a Sinclair ZX81, a Donkey Kong Game & Watch and a Merlin so my Dad was into gaming enough to get on board - in the end he was the one who bought most of the games for us after reviewing all the magazines and scanning the shops in free time. We didn't ask the kids in the playground, we discussed games with my Dad and as such we had the Mega Drive set up in the lounge and watched eachother play. This cotinued with the Saturn even though we didn't know anybody else who oned one.
End of 80´s i was c-64 kid and early of 90´s i get Amiga 500 after that something 1994 i get my Sega megadrive (genesis in usa), and i got Sonic, Streetfighter 2, Pitfall etc... so glad about this video that giving me good memories about my own childhood and time to be young. And btw i´ve played Golden Axe 2 a lot with Amiga 500 :)
My first encounter with a Genesis was with my family as we were checking out of a toy store. It was an indi store not a Toys R Us or Child World, but still quite large. In any case the staff must've just got the first shipments in and had decided to show off the new item by setting it up on one of the check out lines so that people could play it. It wasn't bolted down or in a kiosk or anything.. They just unboxed one and hooked it up to a TV set playing Altered Beast. It was quite a shock as there we had never even heard of it. Then again, like lots of gamers back then we only had an NES and relied on Nintendo Power for news.. We were hooked, and the following week my brother purchased one. We got thunder force 2, and Super Thunder Blade. Every couple of weeks my family would go shopping and we check to see if new titles were released. The one I remember most was when my dad purchased the revenge of shinobi. My old man treated every purchase the way he would when dealing with an auto salesmen... He'd never show excitement or interest preferring to keep that to himself, and would at best say something like "yeah i guess that looks good". Anyhow Revenge of Shinobi was one of a handful of times where he seemed impressed, he didn't even ask if we thought we should purchase it ( our family's default was a vote ). I still have that exact copy and play it from time to time. It remains one of the top games for the system by my ranking.
My cousins across the road had a Sega Genesis. They had NBA Jam, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Sonic 2, and Robocop 3. I loved playing those games. Still have the games and original console to this day. Makes me happy to think back on those times. Thanks for the video.
The fact that your Grandpa was a WW2 vet (as were both of mine) was into Genesis is so amazing.
I was a SEGA kid too my brother I even went so far as naming my dog "SEGA" love your work big man..
You know, if dogs could talk, and if you really DID name him/her that, then he/she would tell himself/herself not to respond to that name in a way that only comic strips are allowed to do.
Many kids of my generation bought a Genesis for EA NHL games (early ones). There was this huge hockey boom in the early 90s and everyone who had a Genesis, had these games. SNES port was not up to par.
love the stories about your grandfather. That's great. I'm about your age but I have zero experience of anyone from our grandparents generation playing video games. My dad is 63 and he plays games. My dad and I have been playing games together since the very late 80's and early 90's, and recently we got a switch. Playing mario kart 8 and puyo puyo tetris together really rekindles the nostalgia for the nes/snes/64 days. He also has become obsessed with BOTW, which is so cool because he hasn't gotten deeply into a single player adventure like that for over a decade.
Sega Channel, a Nomad, and. 32X, wow. Thanks for sharing Pete, always ready for a good trip down memory lane.
This is probably my favourite video by far! Wow, I love listening to stories such as times spent with family and gaming. Golden time really, spent with important people.
Thanks for sharing this experience m8! It also reminds me of my early childhood and gaming with important people in my life.
Cheers Pete!!
TBH i'm STILL a SEGA "Kid"...
iPlaySEGA!! Only thing that’s changed is I got a scart to HDMI converter. Am I right !?
True, no idea how many converters and upscalers i own right now...
Love hearing your personal stories and memories Pete. So interesting and relaxing to listen to. Please stay with us and keep the pace up. You had a awesome grandfather.

I love these highly personalized stories and memories! Best regards from Germany Pete!
Great video Pete!!! Shoutout to you Grandpa for being so awesome. Thanks for the upload.
Great stories! Making me nostalgic for my old PS1 days! Thanks for the video 😊
Remember the first of the month when sega channel would update their games, waking up at 5am to see if it updated and playing games before school.
Wow an oldie who played video games :P That's rare. My first memory of playing video- games with a relative was with the Gamecube. My two cousins had Animal Crossing hooked up; a sim-game.

I had gotten a Sega CD this christmas 4 months ago, and I'm sure glad I asked for it.

Awesome video. I, too, was a Sega kid. Got my Genesis for my 5th birthday in 1993 with Sonic 1
Still have my Dreamcast...still an All-time Classic!
You were so cute back than. I saw your video playing sonic at your grand pa's. I grew up playing mario on NES with the duckhunt and race mat add ons.
Thank You for sharing your Genesis memories! I really enjoyed it
Great video, I agree about the original games and the feelings associated with them.
Love these more off the cuff style videos!
Very cool Pete! thanks for sharing.

Glad to see the videos. Have missed you Pete
We were a nintendo family and I made my best friend (still to this day) because he had a sega. I remember seeing or playing Altered Beast on a kiosk at a toy story and wanted to pay sega so badly.

sledge, then of course you have Controller1 Gaming, which Pete also made a long time ago, but it's surprisingly still on the iOS store.
I got a very clear memory of me and my best friends playing 2 player altered beast and golden axe , I was blown away by the genesis. We also play a lot of ghouls and ghost and last battle
Could listen to you talk about video games all day

As an affiliate,advocate and business partner of Alethiea Games,LLC, I'm sure you have alot of lingering questions regarding RAZOR. These questions I cannot answer as we don't speak for Alethiea Games, but we are GLAD to help assist you with referring to you some basics of what RAZOR is and can definitely refer you to Alethiea Games' contact information and press info.
If you're interested to know what RAZOR is and how long its been in operations. Let me quickly explain.
RAZOR or The RAZOR console is a Stand Alone, Independently developed Next Gen Game Console Project that Virginia State Based Alethiea Games is working on and getting proper legal funding for. The console will be Pitched to Sega Holdings,Co,Ltd in Japan in the approach where Sega licenses the console from Alethiea Games and ultimately buys it from AG. Sega will handle 90% duties of RAZOR, sales,marketing,licensing,distribution,manufacturing,procurement, management. Alethiea Games will act as a Licensee or "IP Sharing Partner' of its Console or "Technology Partner" in the same league as WebTV in the 90s, Also in some for like 3DO and SK Hynix and TiVo today.
Once successful, AGs will sell its rights and company off to Sega. In the same way that WebTV Networks,Inc was acquired by Microsoft in 1999, and became MSN TV where it lasted another 11 years and its services ran all the way until Early 2013.
For Basic information and details about The Razor, please check out these 2 Interviews Alethiea Games conduced with JDDauntless and MaDZ Game in August of 2016:

lindseyhunt1090-GarageB Don't pressure, in good time
He has 2 million subs at one point. His channel was very huge, but he needed a break so all the fakes left. All his true fans stayed and waited for a new video.
Lies
lindseyhunt1090-GarageB radical Reggie and him should collaborate.
fireheart, I'm pretty sure he never had 2 million subs.
Did HappyConsoleGamer resurrect you?!
I got a Sega Genesis because of Mortal Kombat.. That was 90% of my kid decision making process. Lol
Got a Genesis in 1993 after watching the "I heard Mac got a Sega Genesis" commercial. I've been a lifelong SEGA fan since 1991. Owned both versions of MK1 for SNES and Genesis.
Awesome video, Sega nostalgia kicking in. Sonic on the genesis and Phantasy star online on DC. I got the keyboard and everything.✌💀👍
I remember coming home from school and my mom had a Sega Genesis waiting for me and my bro. We weren’t even expecting it. So awesome. Sonic 2 blew our minds. So cool your grandpa was a gamer.
Loved the trip down memory lane.
I clicked on this video so fast....
loving the videos, Pete. Keep them coming!
My first console was the Genesis and I loved it and I did get a Dreamcast in it's final year on the market and it's become my favorite console of all time and it's exciting games are still made for the Genesis and Dreamcast!
Great video, so cool to hear your history. I was a Sega kid growing up to so it's awesome to see how it impacted us in different ways.
Also love the AGG shirt, miss the podcast :)
My grandfather bought a ton of atari games when i was in 4th grade and kept them in his closet. Everytime i had a decent report card he would let me pick a game out of collection.
Your grandfather was the best! 🖒😎
Great vid Pete!
The Sega Genesis was my very first console, so many memories. I just recently picked up the Sega Genesis Classics on my PS4 man is it a trip down memory lane.
Bio hazard battle is very underrated co op shooter for the system. Very fun and still very cheap. I think any genesis owner should own it for co op alone.
great video pete
Who else remembers the newspaper list of games at Funcoland? Gaaaahhhh I miss those days.
Hey Pete Great video, I got into video Games from watching my uncles play at my grandparents house. My uncle gave me a nes as a gift with all. Their old games and it was one of the happiest days of my life. I. Still. Remember the moment I got. The games from. Him. And the consol was a top loader nes.
Yaassss loving your content!
Thanks for the video glad to see you back on UA-cam
Now it all makes sense, Pete is a descendant of the gaming gods.
I'd LOVE to hear you talk the other consoles and your memories associated with them :D
I started playing the Genesis around 1989/1990 at my cousin's house and I eventually got a Model 2 around 1995, I think? I had an amazing childhood, growing up with such games as Vectorman 2, Streets of Rage 2, Sonic 2, Shinobi III, Toy Story, Shining Force I-II, Phantasy Star IV, Ghouls n' Ghosts, Batman, Ghostbusters, Dick Tracy, Two Crude Dudes, and SO.MUCH.MORE.
Sega kid too.First console was game gear and sonic 2.At the time all my friends had gameboy, which till that time was very nice.But imagine my joy and awe when i put sonic 2 on the game gear and saw the color graphics and the sound Seeegaaa.Simply amazing!Scarred for life!
Alex the Kidd Enchanted Castle is so bad, hated it as a kid.
My grandparents didn't care for video games, but they would still buy them for me, my brother and my cousins if we asked for them for Christmas. I remember one of my cousins getting Mortal Kombat II on the SNES for Christmas and my parents getting upset because of the violence. My parents didn't like that game or any game with blood/gore in it. My uncle got upset at my parents for making a big deal out of it. He said "I think my son is old enough to know it's just a video game and he's not going to go out and kill someone because he saw it in a video game" and my parents said "Well, I don't let my kids play those kinds of games at home" . (Needless to say, I had the game and they didn't know it LOL)
I was a Commodore and Spectrum Kid and a SEGA Teen, i was 13 when i got the Mega-Drive, i'm from the UK, SEGA Mega-Drive/Genesis, is my favourite console of all time, and the Master System is my second, and the C64 is my favourite Micro Computer.
Grew up as a huge SEGA fanboy...got my Master System in 89 and my Mega-Drive in 1992. It literally broke my 12 year old heart in 1998 when I found out that SEGA was dying...have been a Sony fan since then. Thx for the video Pete!
Thanks so much for making videos for your fans on this shitty site Pete!
I have similar memories with my Grandpa. He was a gamer too. He exposed me to donkey kong and mario for snes
and then he got hugely addicted to tomb raider for ps1 and played it and beat it over and over again. Everytime I visited he was playing tomb raider and I got to watch and he would let me play. I remember buying him every tomb raider game that was out at the time off of ebay and putting them all in a big CD case with the manuals and the cutouts.
Beautiful memories
but also sad that they are just memories now
Hey Pete, just wanted to say that I enjoy listening to you while a study here at Missouri State. It definitely calms my nerves when it comes to the stress of college. Thanks for doing what you do, and I look forward to MOAR SONIC R. I wanna see that GC Highscore with your name on it! Keep it real, man.
I wish sega did a collections on ps4 blueray but stacked it not like what capcom did with megaman where the ps2 disc has more titles than the blueray.
I had no idea there was a sega channel. lol that sounds familiar but not fully. I got to research it.
That's an impressive collection. Hard for me to believe a grandparent could be so into Genesis. My grandparents wanted nothing to do with video games.
the microphone right in front of your face is very distracting. it's all my eyes could focus on. also what the fuck is up with all gen gamers it been over a year since the last podcast.
Willing to sell a dream cast sonic bundle try to showncase it like know rule trying to see out rite buy it from me it is in good shape
Love your videos bro and my grandma is the reason I started gameing first game console I had was a super Nintendo love sega to
Great video, I loved seeing all these great games and hearing the connections you have to the system and games.
1 or 2 new games a month wasn't much!? Whaaaaat?? My parents bought me like 4 a year lol
if you stay consistent you can blow. up
July 2023. I love this video! Having it on repeat in the background as I'm working. RIP to Pete's grandparents!! I get EXACTLY what you mean with the dust; I have things from my childhood that I want preserved, so I keep them in the exact state that they always were: dust and all. Love these style of videos
I'm pretty sure it was Christmas 1992, my parents remortgaged the house and we (me and my two brothers) got so much stuff that year (romote control cars & cassette recorders, transformers) but I asked for a Sega Mega Drive instead of a bike as my main present. I think this was a pretty big decision but we did own a Sinclair ZX81, a Donkey Kong Game & Watch and a Merlin so my Dad was into gaming enough to get on board - in the end he was the one who bought most of the games for us after reviewing all the magazines and scanning the shops in free time. We didn't ask the kids in the playground, we discussed games with my Dad and as such we had the Mega Drive set up in the lounge and watched eachother play. This cotinued with the Saturn even though we didn't know anybody else who oned one.
End of 80´s i was c-64 kid and early of 90´s i get Amiga 500 after that something 1994 i get my Sega megadrive (genesis in usa),
and i got Sonic, Streetfighter 2, Pitfall etc... so glad about this video that giving me good memories about my own childhood and time to be young. And btw i´ve played Golden Axe 2 a lot with Amiga 500 :)
My first encounter with a Genesis was with my family as we were checking out of a toy store. It was an indi store not a Toys R Us or Child World, but still quite large. In any case the staff must've just got the first shipments in and had decided to show off the new item by setting it up on one of the check out lines so that people could play it. It wasn't bolted down or in a kiosk or anything.. They just unboxed one and hooked it up to a TV set playing Altered Beast. It was quite a shock as there we had never even heard of it. Then again, like lots of gamers back then we only had an NES and relied on Nintendo Power for news..
We were hooked, and the following week my brother purchased one. We got thunder force 2, and Super Thunder Blade. Every couple of weeks my family would go shopping and we check to see if new titles were released. The one I remember most was when my dad purchased the revenge of shinobi. My old man treated every purchase the way he would when dealing with an auto salesmen... He'd never show excitement or interest preferring to keep that to himself, and would at best say something like "yeah i guess that looks good". Anyhow Revenge of Shinobi was one of a handful of times where he seemed impressed, he didn't even ask if we thought we should purchase it ( our family's default was a vote ).
I still have that exact copy and play it from time to time. It remains one of the top games for the system by my ranking.
My cousins across the road had a Sega Genesis. They had NBA Jam, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Sonic 2, and Robocop 3. I loved playing those games. Still have the games and original console to this day. Makes me happy to think back on those times. Thanks for the video.
