  • "You shoot the thing, I shoot the thing ." Solid strategy, Amelie! 🤣🤣🤣
  • @HeyLaserLips
    "It took me a while to work out the controls.." A: Jump B: Jump C: Jump 💀
  • @marcoelhodev
    In case of Sonic 2, the lady is right to say it's pixelated. Sonic games were designed with pixelated graphics to make use of artifacts on a CRT Television, so the pixelated waterfall and the bushes in Sonic 2 would look transparent instead of a mesh of pixels. In fact, Sonic 2 looks way better in a television of that time, than it does in modern consoles and monitors.
  • @Spadez86
    I raised my kids on my Sega, Snes & N64 That said... Ending the Streets of Rage 2 segment at the bar is the biggest crime against humanity
  • Everyone who played SoR2 in the day: That's NOT the end of the first level, come on, man! Still entertaining to see
  • @Ghost8386
    I'm 90's kids. The Sega Genesis was the very first gaming console that I had the pleasure of owning. I used to get so frustrated and quit playing often back in the '90s when I was trying to beat Sonic the Hedgehog (1991), Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (1992), and Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles (1994). I also recall the Game Genie for Sega Genesis.
  • Amelie’s strategy always works. “You shoot the thing and I shoot the thing” Teamwork!
  • @drowningin
    They haven’t experienced Sonic until they’ve heard the drowning music. That sound taught me what anxiety attacks were
  • @gk15
    Streets of Rage is something you can play any time. So much fun and at the same time challenging.
  • @Mankey619
    I love that younger generations are appreciating and enjoying these old games. I wanna see them play some SNES, N64 and PS1 games too.
  • @mattjames112
    "I've got to get the controls!" Sonic is literally a one button game.
  • The dude saying i was still trying to figure the controls lmao 🤣 Button A: jumps Button B: jumps Button C: jumps. Theres just literally one button 😅 what the actual......
  • @hgodvilla00
    The original Sega unofficial mascot from 1986 until 1991 was Alex Kidd, and not Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic only became the official mascot in 1991.
  • @a_real_one2000
    As Sonic fan who grew playing Genesis it hurt a little bit to hear them say😢 “I played sonic on the DS” Sonic & Knuckles combo cartridge is still all time great gaming product.
  • @LyricalLin
    Seeing them excited while playing gives me the biggest smile. Just goes to show how timeless these games are
  • @zefini
    i Love that girl saying it's so pixelated it looks fluorescent! it really does, the colors are so vivid!
  • @Instrulnomical
    Aww. . . No Golden Axe, Ecco The Dolphin, Battletoads, Castle Of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse, The Lion King, Robo Cop Vs. Terminator, Primal Rage, Any TMNT Game?! Hoping For A Part 2 Of People Playing Sega Genesis Or Any Classic Video Games For That Matter! 🤞
  • @MosoKaiser
    3:22 How do you get confused as to "what controls did what" in Sonic 2? That's D-pad and a single button...
