Matt Young Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 Who's enjoying this game? I never played many Genesis games when I was younger; really just the Sonic games and Mean Bean machine. I'm just discovering the wonders of Alex Kidd, for God's sake!
Twisted Intestine Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 I had this game for PS2 like 5 years ago or something. Sonic Pinball is pretty fun.
Angles Broken Fricken Neck Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 Those games are what emulators are for.
AndrewTS Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 I'm just discovering the wonders of Alex Kidd, for God's sake! The Megadrive one? Oh god. I'll get the collection sometime soon, though.
TheFranchise Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Alex Kidd in miracle world is probably the greatest game ever made (at least, to me.) Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle.. Not so much.
BUTT Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Enchanted Castle is the second best game in the series. But that's not saying much.

Prophet of Mike Zagurski Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 I bought it for the achievements. On another note, I like Altered Beast, Shining Force, and a few other games on there. I would have like Sword of Vermilion on it but I think Sega did a good job on it. They should do a Sega CD, 32x, Saturn, or Dreamcast version.
Guest Smues Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 The 32x version would be a blank disc.
Guest Smues Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Hell the Sega CD version wouldn't be that great either, unless they put out a collection of all the awful FMV games on the Sega CD. I'd pay for that.
AndrewTS Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 I'm having trouble thinking of even 10 quality, 1st party, non-licensed-property titles that Sega could use for a Sega CD collection. 1. Sonic CD 2. Shining Force CD 3. Um... I'm out. The Lunar games are Working Designs and were already remade on PS1 anyway. Snatcher is Konami of course. Etc, etc. Plus Sega can't emulate the games anyway (any of the emulated Sega CD or Saturn games to show up later were reverse engineered PC ports, like Sonic CD on Gems Collection and Panzer Dragoon in Orta).

Was Sol Feace made by Sega?
AndrewTS Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Was Sol Feace made by Sega? Wolf Team, creators of Cobra Command, Final Zone, and the Earnest Evans series. Although, the company staff and history is tied up with Telenet Japan (makes of the Valis series) and Renovation. In any case, no, they're 3rd party too.
BUTT Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Didn't Telenet license the Valis character out to a porn company a few years ago?
AndrewTS Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Didn't Telenet license the Valis character out to a porn company a few years ago? Yeah, Eants. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mugen_Senshi_Valis#Valis_X Valis X A hentai attempt to resurrect the series. There are five Valis X titles that retell the stories of the first four games containing copious amounts of lesbian acts and tentacle sex. Reverse-Type-Mooned! (Type-Moon made the hentai games Tsukihime and Fate/Stay Night, which became non-hentai mangas and animes, and became the basis for fighting games Melty Blood and Fate Unlimited Codes, respectively.)
BUTT Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 The 32x version would be a blank disc. 32X had great ports of Space Harrier and After Burner. Of course, taking these games from the mid 80s and rereleasing them in the mid 90s for full price couldn't have made Sega look very good. But it was a bright spot in a dark cloud.
Youth N Asia Posted March 13, 2009 Report Posted March 13, 2009 Alex Kidd in miracle world is probably the greatest game ever made (at least, to me.) Not my favorite Master System game (Wonderboy in Monster Land), but Kidd in Miracle World is probably top 10 for me all time. Awesome game
TheFranchise Posted March 13, 2009 Report Posted March 13, 2009 Since you bring it up again YnA, did you ever manage to complete it while it was on the Master System? I never completed it until years later through the use of an emulator, I could simply never work out the last but after you need to work over certain purple question marks and avoid the ghosts. I actually needed a walkthrough.
Dobbs 3K Posted March 13, 2009 Report Posted March 13, 2009 I would have like Sword of Vermilion on it but Wasn't that a pretty mediocre RPG? I never played it, as I never had a Genesis back in the day. Pretty good collection...the Shinobi game is pretty kick ass. Reminds me of "Symphony of the Night" on Playstation in some ways.
Matt Young Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Posted March 13, 2009 I'm about to take on Shining Force. Another RPG is the last thing I need to get into, but what the hey.

Matt Young Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Posted March 17, 2009 Thoth and KingPK are both playing this at the exact same time, both playing Sonic games. =-o
AndrewTS Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 I don't have this but was playing Beyond Oasis on the genesis; good stuff. I love how death screams for it are pulled out of SoR2. Also, Link could never dash flying kick a giant ogre.
JN News Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 I honestly never saw any game that said "Sonic Ultimate Genesis Collection". I've seen Sonic Mega Collection (and Plus) and Sonic Gems Collection. But, not the above stated. Can someone fill me in on this? I never even saw this game on the shelves.

I assumed the game they were talking about was actually this:
TheFranchise Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Edit: It's the same game from the games on the cover. I still want it though.
AndrewTS Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Basically, if your idea of "football" is played with round balls then you call it a Megadrive, but otherwise it's a collection of Sega Genesis games.
TheFranchise Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Yeah, in England where we're obviously 20 years behind the times. But I know what a Sega Genesis is. I just didn't know why your version has Sonic in the title.
