This is my original Genesis I bought in like '92(?) with one of my first paychecks from my first job at Chuck E. Cheese’s (yes I’m fucking old).

I thought I sold it years ago but found out it was sitting in one of my mom’s closets, so I bought a few cheap carts and hooked it up to a crt I keep around for just such occasions. It still works!

I am so goddamn happy, I just had to share and I figured you all might appreciate that.

      I did! I didn’t finish it though. I put many, many hours in but I remember it was extremely long so I never made it to the end.

      Honestly, I probably put the most hours into Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective :/

          I wasn’t really used to jrpg’s at the time and didn’t realize what I was getting myself into lol. I didn’t finish Phantasy Star II, either, even though I loved it.

              Ha! Oh shit, that’s amazing! I haven’t touched the game since the mid nineties, so I don’t remember many details.

              For some reason, I distinctly remember a guy who flipped a coin along his fingers because I thought it looked cool so learned how to do that trick.

              Anyways, thanks for sharing that.
