Bubble Bobble? I know there was a Master System version, not sure about Mega Drive. ---

Looks fun, and I love Renovation, but I think she’d get bored with a pinball game. She’d certainly like the cover art though! ---

Yep, it’s a pretty poor pinball game by Wolf team. Not a patch on Devil Crash. ---

Started looking at Genesis / Mega Drive games lately and was pleasently surprised at how cheap they are for the most part. I wasn’t nearly as interested in buying games for the system for a long time as say SNES I think because I had one as a kid in the late 90s and was always in envy of other consoles at the time. Figured I’d just post everything I have; everything but Sonic 2 is new: ![IMG_20190210_0106536](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/retrogameboards/original/2X/9/943dd04bbb69e8d7ea31b5b43cc811bd4c4e6903.jpeg) For the 6-Pak, I probably could have just used my everdrive but I lost my childhood cart sometime around 2000 and spent the better part of 5 years searching different parts of my parents house on and off to try and find it. I still have no idea what happened to it, and more recently all our Genesis stuff went missing; I’m just hoping it turns up at some point. Other games I had as a kid were the not-for-resale Sonic 2, Tinhead (which I rebought here), Dynamite Headdy, The Pagemaster (terrible game), The Lion King (worse than The Pagemaster), Adventures of Batman & Robin, Power Rangers, Road Rash, and a bunch of sports games. ---

I love the Japanese box art for the Mega Drive Sonic series, it feels so much a design of its era but still looks fresh today. ---

Came here to say the same. It beats the pants off the US art. ---

I read somewhere years ago that the Sega CDX had native s video support, any truth to that? ---

The X’Eye did not. Only the Japan Wondermega and Wondermega 2 had native SVid. ---

I learned something this weekend after 30 years that blew my mind. If you have a model 1 MD/gen you can balance the game sound and music in CD games with the volume slider.

As long as you run your headphone out to the aux in on the Sega CD you can control the mixing. It’s a total game changer ! ---

Err, yes. I thought everyone knew that :). I guess being 43 does have its advantages. ---

But I’m also 43 and owned a model 1 Sega CD in its era. I guess I should have read the manual. ---

I’m only 32 but I’m old enough to have had a Genesis in my day. I didn’t get the model 1 however, I got the model 2 with columns and I cried all Christmas day because it didn’t come with Sonic. ---

I still own my Model 1 High Definition Graphics that I purchased in 1991 with Sonic in the box and Bulls vs. Lakers. I never got a Sega CD back then, but some years ago now I bought the Sega CDX I use regularly to play my Genesis and small Sega CD collection. The old Model 1 has a mushroom on it. I’m 47, so older than old @Yakumo and @NeoZeedeater up there, and I never knew that about the mixing. Wild. I did use that headphone port to get stereo out to a Pioneer receiver back then, though. Hearing the rings go left right left right in Sonic was pretty damn cool. 🙂 ---

A man of quality. The first thing I did when I got a Mega Drive in 1989 was to find some way of hooking it up to a stereo receiver. Ever since then every console I’ve ever had runs through an amp. I haven’t used TV speakers in over 30 years! Well, slight lie. The living room and bed room TVs have sound coming from them but the main movie / gaming TV hasn’t done in over 30 years. TV speakers at one point were pretty reasonable on certain hight end Dolby stereo CRTs but now they suck big time.
