1988 was amazing

As much as I love the Genesis/Mega Drive it really took a while for it to be worth owning, other then for the feeling of something new. I was pretty young at the time and didn’t notice that untill much later in life when I was going over systems launch/launch window games.

Yeah, the Japanese launch window wasn’t great (I still love Space Harrier II, though, despite its flaws) but I would have loved to have the system that early. Did you live in Japan or import it? I wasn’t aware of any places in my area selling Japanese MD imports until 1990.
