sega genesis model 1

IF you been thinking of getting a genesis get the model 1. it has stereo audio out the front of the console. it has a massive library so you wont ever run out of games. no moving part gives you a long lasting system. very good console.

Piece of garbage

This was a piece of total garbage and a horrid looking tumor for the Sega Genisis. The piece of crap requires it's own large Ac adapter etc just like the Genisis, it had crappy games, and had a history of breaking genisis games. This is laughable to...

greatest game collection ever

You do get fairly bored of the game once you've unlocked everything. But if you're like me, you'll end up picking it back up at some point for more gameplay.

The game is in excellent condition, as expected. The packaging was a bit much given the size of a PSP game case, though. These are SEGA classics, some of the best games ever made

Nothing really against the anything at all, other than the fact that there are so many other games that SHOULD have been included on it by SEGA. Can't really blame anyone but the one who gathered them together for that
