Rocket knight adventures is sooo good. I played it a few months ago. Superb platformer.

[Old_Man_Jay]

Why I love this channel? Because more often then not you showcase a game I end up wanting to add to my collection! Great stuff, drunk!

[nikmidclayton]

Dude. The Strike games! Jungle, Urban, Desert

[mikem]

Some must haves that I don't see anywhere are "Zombies Ate My Neighbors, " "Cyberball, " and "Shove It." Glad to see Herzog Zwei on your list, amazing game that was ahead of its time.

Thanks so much for the video. As a former Nintendo kid and complete Sega newbie I will take your suggestions as a starting point. Can't wait to dive deep into the Mega Drive library for the first time. :)

General Loved the shit out of that game as a kid!

Alien soldier, Thunder force 4, Bio hazard battle, Rocket knight adventure, Musha, Gleylancer, Ranger X, Eliminate down, Gaiares, Gymoug, Steel empire, Atomic runner, Turtles hyperstone heist, Arrow flash, Golden axe 2 and Aladdin.

I would add Battle Mania Daiginjou (Battle Mania 2), another great Mega Drive shootemup with Treasure like bosses. Rocket Knight Adventures is my go to title on the Genesis. Its so solid, you just can't fault it.

[thLife]

Such a solid list; I really need to give some of these games a play-through!
I can't say I've heard of Crusader of Centy before and it looks super cool!!!

And Robocop vs Terminator.... That game never gets any love

[danmakuman]

The good thing is there are LOTS of awesome Genesis games to choose from.

[Marzimus]

General Chaos has some of my favorite cover art. It's been glued to memory since first seeing it at Stage 1 Video circa 1992...

[theolopesvaraschin]

I would add QuackShot Starring Donald Duck to this list.

[Kgregory]

And I thought I was the only one that liked general chaos! Its such a good time!

[johnbakasmoothhotchocolate]

It's only a matter of time before the Genesis mini gets hacked. It would make sense to put TMNT Hyperstone Heist on there, and I was surprised Ristar didn't make it there. Also Quackshot should have made the list, but that's just my opinion.
