Let’s take a look at Super Thunder Blade. This is one of the launch titles for the Sega Genesis, and it is one of the weaker ones. It isn’t too different from Space Harrier II in terms of gameplay.

Alien Storm: A Classic Arcade Game from Sega
Alien Storm is a fun beat’em up. Sega initially released the game in the arcades, and later ported it to the Genesis/Mega Drive. It is a hybrid of a beat’em up and a rail shooter.

TMNT HyperStone Heist, The Best Beat’em Up on the Genesis

TMNT: The Hyperstone Heist was new to me. I thought the only game on the Genesis was theContinue reading “TMNT HyperStone Heist, The Best Beat’em Up on the Genesis”
15 Best Game on the Sega Genesis
The Sega Genesis/Mega Drive was my console during the early 90s console wars. Most of my friends had one, and it was the system I played the most. This was the first system I collected for when I started collecting video games in the late 90s. This was how I experienced many of the arcadeContinue reading “15 Best Game on the Sega Genesis”
