The only game that ever used the impressive tech was the Genesis version of Virtua Racing -- and that, too, debuted on store shelves for 100 big ones.

There is nothing more exciting for a preteen than to go to his friend’s house and load a Genesis cartridge to have the SEGA logo pop up with that unmistakable vocalization of “SEGA!” It was even more exciting to notice which games had a gag with the SEGA intro logo. Everyone got in on the act: Sonic the Hedgehog, Genie from Aladdin, Doraemon, Earth...
Though I lack the concrete evidence to prove that black is the sexiest color of them all, I am quite positive there is something about an object being black that makes it intrinsically sexy and cool. The Little Black Dress. The New Black. These are all phrases that call to the special nature of the color black. Guess what? The Sega Genesis was inde...
During the first console wars, exclusive titles and franchises defined what a system was and what fanbase it can attract. The term “killer app” referred to a game so influential that people often purchased the console just to play it (i.e. Space Invaders for the Atari 2600). Every exclusive series that Nintendo had, Sega duplicated it for the Genes...
Nintendo has strange justifications for their marketing and business practices. Earlier this year, they announced that they would end the production of the NES Classic Edition despite selling over 2 million units and market demand for more. As someone who never even came close to attaining one, hearing this news created an incredibly sour taste in ...
Nintendo did not make it easy for third-party companies, due to the strict rules they presented in their contract agreements. For the duration of the company’s first two home consoles, Nintendo placed quotas on how many games each third-party could release any given year, what kind of censorship each title went through, and even preventing them fro...
Transformers is one of the most lucrative and influential franchises in the world with tons of collaborations, sponsorships, and tie-in. As a Transformers collector, I have seen them all: Pepsi Prime, Swerve the Chevrolet Aveo, and a Hello Kitty that transforms into a semi-truck. You know what I have never seen? A Super Nintendo Transformer. But do...
What do I mean by cooler? For a preteen, whatever your parents restricted your access to was instantly cool. This meant no Mortal Kombat, no Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, and no Beavis and Butthead. The Genesis’s advertising campaigns and bad-boy persona didn’t make it very attractive to parents and relatives. I remember my aunt telling me she...
This one might cause some backlash. What should be considered a better game? Better gameplay, graphics, or sounds? For me, when it feels right and fun, that is what constitutes better. I think there is some 'je ne sais quoi' about the Genesis version or most third-party games. Sure, there are times when Genesis just stinks up their ports and versio...
Genesis had a litany games to whet the appetite of those looking for violence and gore. Titles such as Splatterhouse and Eternal Champions were classics that featured great gameplay with some gruesome deaths sprinkled in. Some might say the SNES had Killer Instinct, but I look to that as more of an outlier. Bar none, Genesis maintained a more blood...
Have you ever accessed DLCs or downloaded demos for upcoming games through PSN or Xbox Live? For most people with modern consoles, the answer is yes. Being connected online is so essential now that there are modes and features designed just for being on the internet. Sega did the same thing for the Genesis nearly two decades ago. The Sega Channel w...
Aug 14, 2014 · We know Sega had the superior version of Mortal Kombat, and declaring a winner between the premiere beat-em-ups is pretty easy too. The contenders were Sega's Streets of Rage and SNES's Final Fight.

Mar 11, 2019 · 25 The Sega Genesis Was Backwards Compatible With The SMS. Via: Sega-16. First and foremost the Sega Genesis was a home console, but it was based on the arcade platform that Sega was famous for.
