i want to get more into the sega consoles with not only the sonic games ive already played in a few master system games like alex kidd however i am not familiar much with the SMS and almost totally blind about the genesis apart for the sonic games disney games any suggestion for games for those systems?
I’m not familiar with the master system, but the Genesis has a fair number of good games. I think it unfortunately doesn’t hold up as well as it’s competitor the SNES though, because Sega went hard on licensed properties and sports titles, and a lot of those games just aren’t particularly relevant these days, and there were a lot of cross platform games that were just better on the SNES.
But a few that I think are worth mentioning:
That’s a great list! I disagree with SNES holding up better though. For RPGs yes, but anything else you better go Sega.
I want to suggest some more great Mega drive games:
Haunting starring Polterguy
General Chaos
Mutant League Football
Subterrania
Desert Strike, Jungle Strike
Ranger X
Flink
Shining Force 1 and 2
Flashback
Skeleton Krew
Shadowrun
Wonderboy n Monster World
Skitchin
Phantasy Star 4
All the Ecco games, even Ecco Jr which is just very relaxing to sit and play through
This is an awesome list and I just want to add a couple more. The SNES and Genesis each had a Shadowrun game but they’re totally unrelated. I think the Genesis version is better. Same with Pirates of Dark Water (I loved this show). The SNES and Genesis versions are completely different and I prefer the Genesis game.
Other than that, I really like Elemental Master. It’s a vertical shoot 'em up but you play as a mage, always walking up. So it’s kinda like the NES game Gun.Smoke if that means anything to you.
Also have a look at Battle Mania: Daiginjo for Genesis / Mega Drive. A side scrolling shmup where you control anime girls. It’s Japanese, but you actually don’t need to understand. Otherwise there should be translations available.
