Sega Genesis and Master System

Post Reply New Topic

I have begun collecting sega games from the late 80's and early 90's for both the genesis and master system. I have always loved the art work included with most games and the odd ball subject matters. Seems like there were some very unique games from sega during this period and while I was never able to play that many of these as a kid I am now an adult and have decided to partake in this interest in an effort to bring some happiness in my life. Sega holds a special place in my heart in regards to video games, I had begun trying to collect 3ds games before this but I grew frustrated with the recycling the same old games and stories with minor tweaks. Of course there are the games even before this....of which I only have recollection of the commodore 64 of which I also enjoyed a whole lot but never owned. Anyways....anyone else collecting for these systems?

Also collecting for Game Cube because I like the controller and the Gameboy player adapter. (Didn't like it when it came out but have come to like it now.)

Current sega games:
Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle
Zillion II
Alien Syndrome
Fantasy Zone II
R-Type
Time Soldiers
Sword of Vermilion
Sword of Sodan (Wouldn't suggest this one.....controls/movement are pretty awful....but sounded cool)
Miracle Warriors
Boogerman
Rock and Roll Racing
Phantasy Star IV (Have already played through this a couple times...but not yet on the genesis...)
Landstalker
Sub Terrania (pretty difficult)
Fantastic Dizzy (an oddly shaped cartridge made by codemasters......plat-former)

I have a lot on my bucket list to get.....but I've gotten to check a few off....

^^Sounds like a nice collection. What do you think of the "Golden Axe" games

cool game I'm just not great at that style of game....except for virtual fighter...but that's way different.....

I should probably give it another go though....I played it for the first time on a rom.....usually a lot different on actual console...

Seems it is up there with sonic in its notoriety

I've got a Genesis and a Sega CD, but not a Master System.

I don't know if I would call myself a "collector", I only collect the ones I actually like, whereas collectors will snatch up anything, just to have them all.

Don't have my games with me right now to make a list, but I know one of these days I need to pick up Sonic 3D Blast and Road Rash III.

I don't. All I have is the console minus controllers and power adapter, and a game genie. I collect for nintendo and snes myself.

My Fav Sega game of all time was Shining Force 1 & 2.

I have 3 Sega Genesis 2's, and a Sega Genesis 3. I unfortunately don't have a Sega Master System, but that would be a fine addition to my collection. For the Genesis I have Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2 and Sonic Spinball, and i'm hoping to further my collection. I also have Sonic 2, Sonic Spinball, and Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine for the Sega Game Gear. I'm also currently on the look out for games like Alex Kidd and the Golden Axe Series(I loved those games as well) I'm also hoping to find a copy of Comix Zone for the Genesis. That game had amazing music, vibrant colors, and surprising gameplay for it's time. I'm also looking for Phantasy Star games, and I also have a Sega Dreamcast with Sonic Adventure.
You seem to have a great collection going on right now, and i'm jealous of your progress. I hope for my collection to become that good at least some day.

thanks ethan....I might trade you my copy of alex kidd in enchanted castle if you're interested pm me...
