What do you like the most of the Sega Genesis? I only know about Sonic and Thunder Force

I like it's sound chip and how sleek the model 1 looked along with it's vast libary of games.

>Its vast libary of games.
Care to mention some of them that pop to mind?

Contra: The Hard Corps, Castlevania Bloodlines, Street Fighter II' Special Champion Edition, Darius II, Mega Man: The Wily Wars, Streets Of Rage trilogy, The Punisher, Pac-Mania, Mortal Kombat, Loads of Rom Hacks for the system, Gunstar Heroes, Alien Soldier, Tetris, Alex Kidd And The Enchanted Castle, Arrow Flash, Flicky, Pengo. And that's JUST off the top of my head.

I personally like Strider. It's cool knowing where Capcom's beloved ninja comes from since I pick him a lot in MVC games.

Best game on the genesis is puyopuyo err I mean Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine.

There's been a TON of new games coming out for it, very impressive. Among those that came out I'd say tanzer, arkagis and xeno crisis are the most appealing. Paprium came out recently and I've heard praise for it but the moment you make a game for a retro console with added hardware to the cartridge that wouldn't exist or be prohibitively expensive at the time of the console's heyday is the moment I dismiss your game.

I thought that was a PS1 game, huh

It was ported to the PS1 as well. It was originally an arcade game.

The PS1 is so weird, half its catalog is like a crossbreed between old 2D consoles and the other half is 3d that didn't really look that good.
That didn't happen with the n64, most games were just 3d and the 2d ones didn't feature much spritework
