i'm totally gonna enter, wish me luck!  meantime there's some great art & pics going up too.


So what games are you guys gonna play to celebrate the big 25?  Strider & Rolling Thunder 2 are some of my go-to's but it might finally be time to figure out how to properly play Herzog Zwei, haha.

I'll be mostly posting up articles and doing the social networks thing for the site. Bartman is planning to stream Genesis games later today, which should make for a fun watch.

Trying to mod my GENESIS so it can work without power unit. It's my first game console (thanks dad!). I'm 17 so it's was my first console along with Sonic 1.

Gotta start them kids young and off right with one of the best consoles in history!  Haha.  Good luck on your project.  ^_^

I've got to re-tension the cartridge slot of mine. The cartridges are sitting in there really loose right now and will freeze up or not load if it's not held at an angle. It's not too difficult to re-tension, you just have to have some patience and a light touch.

I played the crap out of the Genesis, my father bought me the model 2 Genesis back in the day and it came with Sonic 2. I loved every second of it but I really fell in love with Shinobi 3 Return of the Ninja Master and many more classics like Castlevania Bloodlines.

The last game I played in my old genesis were Sonic 2 and Pirate Gold ...
I recently reactivated the old console that I had kept, But first I had to open it to remove the dust ...
