This board is full of zoomer collectors, they only know Sonic and Metroid.

I'll be honestly surprised if anyone here has played at least Dynamite Headdy or Sparkster. Not even talking about stuff like Mr. Nutz or Radical Rex.

Fuck you beat me to it, i hired Mr Nutz so much i should have just bought it.

>never did the yeti at the end.
>got extreme pleasure by throwing nuts the little plums on the first level and they would neatly 'split' as though cut with a knife. Strangely satisfying.

Had a quirky Eastern style charm though i believe was made entirely by Western devs.

Gorgeous graphics, very colorful, varied locals and even day / night variants.

I guess he just wasn't as well received as he is sorely lacking in 'tude' and great graphics and gameplay just aren't enough.

That's because adults still young enough to waste time here grew up with sixth gen. With the current rules, you get only zoomer collectors and a few odd loners.

Sonic 2 always seemed vastly inferior to Super Mario World. It has only ten levels, and no battery save. So I played Commander Keen instead.

this game always makes me confused, it has some of the most impressive software scaling i've seen on the Genesis, has lots of voice samples of decent quality, but it runs terrible
