  • The Sega Genesis probably has more hidden gems than any other system. The library is definitely overlooked by many gamers and collectors.
  • @BobaVette
    I wouldn't say "Motley Crue was added at the last minute", the game was called Twisted Flipper when I first got on it, halfway through development, then we secured the license and cooperation of Crue, but thanks for the coverage of Crue Ball (and laterally Subterrania and Blades of Vengeance). Those were fun times, back in the early Genesis days.
  • Holy crap! I think this is the first time I have seen John Hancock without his hat on. I didn't recognize him.
  • Wardner is an absolute hidden gem, I use to love this in arcades, and prior to being able to emulate it on MAME for many years I was so appreciative for the Sega Genesis port for letting me have this at home.
  • @bloodstormpro1
    The answer to underrated Genesis games is always General Chaos. Me and my friends used to play it for hours, and it still holds up pretty well.
  • John is always so jolly and knowledgable about the games he owns, which is friggin awesome.
  • That's the video that I am looking for. After having played a lot of hidden gems in the snes, I am looking for some genesis hidden gems, and I am glad to find this video! Good job!
  • @obthree2830
    I didn’t discover jewel master until much later in life and honestly idk how in the world no one talks about this game more often. Great shout out!
  • @RGT85
    Gotta have Haunted: Starring Polterguy in the next one for sure. Great vid guys.
  • "ahh" "hmmm" "uh huh" "that's awesome" "huh" "hmm" ""mm!" -Metal Jesus, every metal jesus video
  • @sideswipe1261
    Great Video to both of you! I’ve got a pile of catching up to do!
  • @donstarlancer
    Wow I only recognized one of these games. Thanks for sharing. I’m definitely going to look up 4 of these
  • Dude, I remember I had Blades of Vengeance when I was a kid and I loved it! Thanks for bringing that back to my mind X3
  • @newfriikki577
    Not too expensive, well they will be after this video.
  • @timmurren838
    I put Tiny Toon Adventures into my NES when you started talking about it. I'm glad I was still playing it when you started playing your song at the end!
  • @otakudesuka7376
    I have played to almost all those games back in a days. Thank you for this video !
  • @Old_Man_Jay
    Man, I can't believe he showcased Mazin Saga Mutant Fighter. Bought back so many memories. I played the hell out of that game as a kid and learned how to easily destroy every boss. I tried to play it again recently and man, that shit is so fucking hard!
  • @Centerstrain01
    Brings me way back to my past I grew up with the best generation of consoles!
  • @kingbeef5076
    Anyone playing Atomic Runner should go into the options screen and change the controls to: A: shoot left B: jump C: shoot right The standard setup is too awkward.
  • @deckofcards87
    Kudos for including Crue Ball on your list, that game deserves more love!
