YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is Aweosome!And I only have the first one!I am saving up for a Sega Nomad Or Sega GameGear.This is like the first edion of XBOX.Buy the last ones on Amazon.Com!

Wow, dumb luck!
I was on my way somewhere and was running late, but can never resist the temptation of the game store everytime I drive by, so I gave in and stopped at the store.I walked around, and lo and behold, I spot a Sega Genesis system at the old system and game "graveyard" in the back of the store, all cables and other items included, that someone had apprently just dropped off with a nice selection of games. The system, save for a couple of small scratches, was like new. I grabbed it right away, along with Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic II, Mortal Combat II, all for $25. I am very surprised that I found this system, since they are becoming harder to find. I took it to a friends house later, tried it out and it worked just great. Playing Sonic took me back 10 years to college, when I first played this system. It was great being re-united with an old friend. Needless to say, I am happy that I got my hands on this system while I still can, and will spend hours playing it!

Its no Super Nintendo but its still great.
To me Super Nintendo will always be the best 16 bit gaming system mainly because of the superior graphics and sound but I have to admit I lived on Sonic The Hedgehog for most of my life.Unlike the SNES that only had a couple games where you could play as Mario and Luigi the Sega Genesis had tons of Sonic games.It was so cool to watch that series evolve.I think Sonic 3 and Knuckles will always be one of the best games of all time and Vectorman is cool too and lets not forget about Mortal Kombat.That was to me the birth of mature rated gaming.When ever you got sick of playing the clean safe Sonic series and wanted a little blood and guts this is the system you went to for that.

A Timeless classic
I cant believe amazon sells this thing. The technology is from 1988, The games are hard to find now, and its almost forgotton. However i give my respects to amazon for keeping variety in their merchandise. I don't think kids would really like this thing now but when I was 10 years old this was the XBOX. The graphics were great at the time, and in a weird way they still kind of are. I only recomend this system to people who remembered it in its glory days, and are looking for a path down memory lane. key titles are SONIC THE HEDGEHOG, ALTERED BEAST, SHADOW DANCER, GOLDEN AXE, STREETS OF RAGE, VECTOR MAN, And let us never forget the ROAD RASH series. These days truley were the glory days for sega, and theres no point in ignoring this system at all. Oh memories.

no show
Please do not order from this person, it has been a month and I have not received my order ... Read more

GREAT SYSTEM ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE THE SEGA CD TOO
Sega and Nintendo were the main competitors in the 16 bit console wars and goes to show they both had good game consoles. The Sega Genesis library was filled with great exclusives like (Sonic The Hedgehog games,Splatterhouse 2,Golden Axe)and many more titles. I thought Super NES did display better overall graphics but Genesis had some great graphics for the time too,Sega Genesis did however deliver in the sound department with better music and as good a sound as the Super NES. Lastly when the Sega CD came out it was expensive but has some great games(SONIC CD,ETERNAL CHAMPIONS:CHALLENGE FROM THE DARKSIDE, FINAL FIGHT CD,LORDS OF THUNDER,SNATCHER)and more and you can play audio CD's which at the time not many people had a CD playere in there house. Overall the Sega Genesis+SEGA CD is a fun system and I would recommend Super NES also,but stay away from Turbografx,Jaguar,3d0 by all means ,I learned the hard way on those systems. BOTTOM 4 STARS IF YOU JUST HAVE THE SEGA GENESIS,AND 5 STARS EASY IF YOU HAVE THE SEGA CD! ... Read more

I'm 13 years old and still play this game system!
This is one of the best systems I've ever played.I've had this system since I was 7 and I still play this system today.Here's five realy fun games on the genesis in no order:
Thunder Force 3,Sonic the Hedgehog 1,2, and 3,Contra : The Hard Cores,and more!
The only two horrible games I've played on the genesis are Hard Drivin' and Shaq Fu.
I even love going to my local fleemarket to buy more games for this system.Even if I have my Xbox and Gamecube systems then I'd still play this system.Get it if you see it on sale anywhere.It's that much fun.

Started A Dope Trend
Ok diz syztem iz de best ever, and i mean ever. Aight this system started the whole trend(this system and Nes)which led to the production of 3D based systemz. When i waz little like 3 or 4 ,(I'm 12 now) I had a genesis as my first system and i had sonic2 and i wouldnt stop playing. And + it iz realy good az a starter system for lil' kids because if you get em hooked on 3D systemz first, they'll eventually start complaining about smaller things(sound etc.) but if you get em a nes or genesis and work your way up to gc or ps2 or xbox they'll really,REALLY appreciate all game systems and wont complain about the minor things and wont take the em for granted

Plus it is cheap .... for the nes.(Nes had better sound and stuff but for fun, they're the same.)

It iz just the perfect system really and games are..well...CHEAPthat iz why it getz 5(count em 1,2...you get the idea dont make me type past the 1000 word limit.Cuz i'll start rambling like i am now!

No but really folks and peoplezIt is just.......perfect......

Old console but still fun
great video game system to play with!

One of the best systems ever
Since I was a little kid I have always been a Sega loyalist, the only Sega systems I never had were the Sega Master system and the Game Gear.I always loved my Genesis and I still play it to this day, but the one thing that always ticked me off was how the Super Nintendo always got more coverage than the Genesis did.True, the Genesis didn't have the color pallete or sound chip that the Super NES had, but the Genesis had a huge library of exclusive games that defined the 16-bit era.Naturally as with every Sega system, the best games are the sports and fighting games, and the Genesis has tons of them.Without a doubt the Genesis is a landmark system, and if you still have yours hang on to it.Below is a list of Genesis games that are extremely recommended for your Genesis library (you can find many of them at used video game stores or yard sales):

Gunstar Heroes (the best Genesis game ever)
Phantasy Star 2
NHL '94
Revenge of Shinobi
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Castlevania: Bloodlines
Strider
Ghouls 'N Ghosts
Thunder Force 3
Shining Force 2
Eternal Champions
World Series Baseball '98

This system is the best!
I own a Sega Genesis 2, and I have the 32X add-on for it, and I think that the Genesis is one of the best and most successful systems ever made! Knowing that its made by Sega, you know your getting a great system that'll provide hours and hours of fun! There are literally a TON of games for it, which are all great bargains! The Genesis is also a great way to entertain yourself on those boring rainy days... If you have kids, its a great starter system for little ones, its also fun even if your 16! But their is one thing you need to know before buying a Genesis, if your gonna get the Sega CD/32X add-on for it, get this Genesis, the Genesis 2, but if you DON'T want to get the SegaCD or 32X add-on, get the Sega Genesis 3, which is cheaper(its only $X!) and its smaller, about the size of a portable CD player, and the Genesis 3 is also a good replacement system if your old Genesis broke, and you need a new one! So, overall I give the Genesis a rating of 5 out of 5, cuz its the best!! ... Read more

Best Portable System EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
I have this system and it only cost $20.00 but I can tell from the picture that mine came with a different controller with smaller A B C X Y Z buttons and they are black. I can't get it hooked up to my Video center because thos spots are filled with my Gamecube, Gamecube Accessories, N64, and I had to make my PS2 stand up on the side, next to my TV. There is no point anyway because I only have 4 GREAT games to it. They are Road Rash 2, Sonic the hedgehog 1, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and, the Sonic and Knuckles expansion(which it's also it's own game).

An excellent classic gaming console
In the eighties, video gaming got a huge revival. With this revival, two home systems were dominating the video game market - The eight-bit Nintendo Entertainment System and the sixteen-bit Sega Genesis. Because the Genesis was the more powerful system, it was the obvious choice for gamers (that is, until Nintendo released its own sixteen-bit console.) Though the system fast became dated, it spawned its share of gaming classics. Read on for my review of the console.

PROS:
-This newer version of the Genesis is much smaller and sleeker than the older version, which took up a lot of space.
-A six-button controller is included. These were WAY better than the old three-button ones.
-There are tons of games to choose from on the Genesis. There are Genesis exclusives like the classic Sonic series, and a number of excellent series of games that appeared on multiple platforms, like Mortal Kombat (and the Genesis versions of Mortal Kombat I and II are vastly superior to their Super Nintendo counterparts!)
-The price. I've found this new version of the system for as low as twenty bucks! For that price, it's a bargain.

CONS:
-You only get ONE controller, and NO free game. At that price, what did you expect?
-The newer version of the console is not compatible with features many of the other older versions of it was, like the Sega CD, Sega 32X, and Sega Channel.
-Obviously, they don't make games for the system anymore.
-With the growing number of "anthology" games being released for next-gen systems, the system is becoming obsolete.
-A number of good Genesis games (including most of the anime-based ones) never got an American release.
-The system doesn't stand the test of time the way the NES and SNES do.

OVERALL:
Overall this is an excellent gaming console. If you're a fan of old-school gaming and all that complexity in modern games is making your head spin, give the Genesis a spin.

good stuff
i have the oringinal system i play games on it all the time oh you can play originals on this and 2

The Greatest System EVAR!
The Genesis 1 & 2, are, IMO, truly the greatest systems ever. The compatibility with the Sega CD, Sega 32x, and Power Base Converter make it all the more better. I also reccomend the Genesis 3 Core System, with the exception of a few negatives:

First of all, there are no new games coming out for it. I understand why, though: The Playstation was coming out and whipped it's [butt] in sales, the 32x was a flop and Sega was concentrating on the Saturn. So, this is no big deal, especially considering the fact that there are over 700 games anyways.

Second, I'm going to admit it, the graphics are nothing compared to today's games. But y'know what? That really doesn't matter. Because so many people forget the fact that gameplay is what makes a game fun, not the graphics. The best graphics you're gonna get in this system are about equal to early Sony Playstation games. These games are: Virtua Fighting/Racing, Sonic 3D, Vectorman 1 & 2, and the 32x games (36, approximately). Several are 2D, so if you're a gamer who only likes graphics, then frig off if you don't like it. ... Read more

Old school gaming...
So, I decided to break out my old Sega Genesis for old times sake. I mean, PS2's and XBoxes no doubt have the best graphics, storytelling, and user control the gaming world has ever seen, but SEGA has the dynasty of gaming- SONIC! Not to mention the old school house of Mario, Yoshi, and Kirby, courtesy of Nintendo. But, no one under 20 is going to understand what I'm talking about, so getting back to my point...I realize that my original controller isn't working correctly. I completely freak? I would have to buy a time-machine, and go back to 1993 to find a store that sells old Sega/Sega Genesis controllers. But, alas, my trusty Amazon.com is always there to save the day. The controller's designed for the original Sega, but works fine with Genesis and Saturn.

bottom line... it's positive
Good features...This genesis controller is probably the bestcontroller ever for genesis...This gives genesis a reason to be played! ... Read more

Must have for Genesis
If you have a Sega Genesis that fits this cord (not sure which models work although I know at least the 3rd gen doesn't) then you must have this cable. The only reason I give it a 4 and not a 5 is that it doesn't work with all iterations of the Genesis and it is for an out of date console.

A "must buy"
If you are a hardcore Genesis player you have to get this!(make sure you have a Genesis model 2 though - he compact one without the volume control or headphone jack - or it won't work)The difference between mono andstereo sound is very noticable, whether coming through my stereo TVspeakers or a pair of stereo headphones.The quality of games is enhanced- the sound effects, the music - because it's all in full stereo.You'lleven hear things you've never heard before while playing your favoritegame!

'Nuff said.Buy it NOW. ... Read more
