My Life in Gaming Marathon #2 - SEGA Systems and Games

[@BubbalooXRS]

Listening to this while working from home is super relaxing. These guys bring nostalgia just by listening to their voices.

[@NintenDub]

I'd agree with that. I could listen audio only on most vids

This video seriously couldn't have had better timing for me! My gf asked me if I wanted a Megadrive/Genesis for my retro collection as a bday gift. I asked her to wait unti I did some research on which model to get. Keep it up, guys!

[@The90sGamingGuy]

Model 1 with HD Graphics is the best one to get imo i have two of them.

[@RWL2012]

@@The90sGamingGuy he's in Japan, so the equivalent would be an "AV Intelligent Terminal • High Grade Multipurpose Use" Model 1.

I love sega consoles. I once got given as a child, a entire collection of sega gear, both cd drives, 3 mega drives, a 32x and mastersystem addon and HEAPS of games like an entire collection and it was the only console i'd play. When we had a garage sale my parents sold it all for $100 (2003). It has always been on my mind and as i grew up I'd try buying the same games and systems I'd lost. It has cost me close to $2000 (Aus) and I'm only halfway buying. This comment was written in frustration and is out of context but I hope this comment just stresses the point not to sell your old consoles cos it will cost you many hours of work to get back.

Wow... I LOVE my mother and father but if they pulled that shit on me... well, I don't even wanna joke about where they might have wound up...

I need an extended cut of the majestic intro theme. It always leaves me wanting more.

Im 50 now and this was a pastime for sure. Altered beast toejam and earl go to funkotron or something. That game was hard. Sega forever!!! 💯👍❤️

Gonna add this to my sleeping play list, this and game sack's console crunch are my lullabies

Gotta agree. MLiG, GameSack, GTV are my go to's also.

The same here...

[@asadavis9532]

I’m glad there are more of us

[@MicahBuzanANIMATION]

Isn't it strange how it listening to dudes talking about video games eases anxiety? Whenever I have insomnia I put one of these on and it helps my racing mind to calm down.

[@Nelson_C_KNOWS]

Wow at least I’m not the only one who sleeps through video game history lol. But I like it.

[@tims.2717]

The Sega Genesis Collection for PS2 was my first experience playing these games ever, having never grown up with them on the actual Genesis console in the 90's and was the first game collection that got me into retro gaming back in the late 2000's.

[@PogueSquadron]

I also recently played some Genesis games I missed out on and would love to play more. In the past couple years, played through Wonder Boy in Monster Land, Monster World IV, some Streets of Rage 2, and Castlevania Bloodlines. I'd love to check out Contra Hard Corps and Ghosts n Goblins on Genesis.

[@wisewords8972]

Emulators my friend. I have entire retro gaming console libraries on my Wii, Android device, original xbox and 3ds xl. A decent PC would due too. There are plenty of roms online to find.

[@rokuken]

Well Joe, you’re bot the only Space Harrier’s SMS version fan. Here’s another one. One of my favorite SMS games ever. Still play it to this day from time to time.

[@TechWizard28]

Me and my grandfather loved DecapAttack, I'm glad you kept the song playing.

[@trashlevania]

Just discovered this channel yesterday and I've had it playing in the background ever since. From one Sega kid to another, thanks for the videos!

[@HardCase1911]

As a kid I didn't get what to do in this game. It wasn't until a year later giving it a try I realized the genius. All aspects. Final fantasy can kiss my ass.

[@form4li7y]

2:42:10 I had the exact opposite experience with Quartet. I loved the arcade game as a kid but I had an NES. I never knew there was an home version of Quartet until I was an adult and start watching retro game videos on youtube. I bought a cartridge off of ebay as soon as I found out just so I could have a physical copy of one of my favorite childhood games.

[@savingstumps]

I played so much space harrier on the master system. I remember somehow glitching to be a plane instead.

[@bobdylan6454]

Please keep doing this. This feels like the conversations/arguments i have with buddies about emulation vs regular hardware.

[@RapideWombaticus]

This channel brings me peace, happiness and knowledge. Great work Gentlemen 💪

[@Kido1986]

Great, how am I supposed to get work done now? Thanks.... :D

[@chrisw8069]

I really appreciate this guys. Glad to know other people loved and admired Sega as much as me.

[@OGM_OriginalGameMusic]

I'd love to eventually get a video on the games that utilise both Sega CD AND 32x. I think there's like 12? All fmvs too! Sometimes i like to imagine sonic mania running as a cd 32x game.

[@Sol-Cutta]

Annoys me when I see such a EXTENSIVE video as this ..only in that I'd love to have done it myself..only trouble is it wouldn't have been so professional , so fun, so brilliant.. what a great video.

[@youtubeshadowbannedmylasta2629]

I hate it when I fell asleep.

[@GermanRap4life]

Video starts, opening notepad on the phone for writing down which games I need to play in future because I didn't known them but saw them in the video ^^.

[@briantaylorcloe7725]

whoa ... that credits roll ... imagine that opening for each entry of the SCEU (00:07 - 00:22) ... "welcometothenextlevel, Joe Musashi; Get Ready ... It's Thinking --- Power Up!"

[@josephmorales652]

I recently just started playing alien soldier on a small crt tv I acquired. It’s freaking amazing. The game has aged extremely well.

[@Dr.D00p]

Gonna have to download this for offline viewing.

[@ridiculous_gaming]

I all gaming technology, but dislike how common failed CD drives are, yet the rest of the console works 100 percent. Because of this, I love digital media solutions such as what you have mentioned.

[@tonytwostep_]

Still have and use my Sega CDx, glad you mentioned it in the video as it often gets skipped over :)

[@pimpedoutstereos9747]

A marathon episode like this reminds of the channel game sack since joe does the same thing every now and then. Good job, I hope u guys do sum more of these

Phantasy Star is one of the most immersive games ever. You really feel like your exploring dungeons.

[@davideblonda6159]

Don't be poor with those thumbs up, these guys are brilliant.

[@ortsed7]

Sega is just the best. Mastering games about platforming, fighting, fork lift driving, light gunning, deep sea fishing, daytona drifting, maraca shaking (!), street thug thrashing, 18 wheeler delivering, Ferrari shifting, graffiti spraying, rally racing, twin stick mech battling, cosmic tennising, after burning - just to name a few. No one other game company had the guts or just sheer cool factor to cover their range.

[@flewis02]

I managed to convince a friend of mine in the 8th grade to sell me his 200 dollar Sega Nomad for 20 bucks, I still have it now... Hehe

[@humnaset]

Ow yea, stereo sound from the genesis, I remember it. When I had a genesis back in the 90's, I was into electronic DIY, so I hooked my genesis headphone output to my DIY stereo set. Street Fighter II sounded awesome.

[@LusRetroSource]

How the hell did I miss this video! Oh well, at least I have more awesome content to add to my queue.

[@jeromievalenzuela2190]

awe the the bit of passing on the space harrier was a bit sad. later space cowboy!!!

[@RetroGamingReplay]

I'm listening to this while getting acupuncture... Hahaah genesis and dreamcast were life. ❤️

[@darinherrick9224]

It's also funny to me how when I was playing SEGA I was a kid and my parents didn't like the sound anything even remotely violent. So no Shinobi for me! I was playing Sonic and Toejam and Earl, Taz, Thunder Force (spaceship violence was okay). I never played Space Harrier or Golden Axe or Shining Force. Now that I'm almost 40 I have to wonder is it even worth going back and trying to understand all this stuff I missed?

[@DesmondShannon87]

this is like a college course on Gaming and these guys are the professors

[@retrobear9367]

Thank goodness for the triple bypass mod and the Mega Everdrive Pro. Playing Sega Cd on a Nomad is so awesome and kind of novel :)

[@corgibuttz2550]

lol god damn it, the "power up" really got me.

[@enfieldjohn101]

Genesis hardware is fun to tinker with. I no longer have the space for the huge stack of add-ons that it takes though. I wound up selling my setup a few years ago and now use emulators like Hyperkin. It's really interesting stuff for a hardware geek like me to tinker with though. I kinda miss it at times.

[@shopliftfilms]

59:17 is that the year 201? Amazing!

[@AnthonyRiddle]

Part 1 of this video is why I prefer playing games on my mini consoles. You get a crisp upscaled pixel perfect screen with just an HDMI cable.

[@TurboXray]

Time Gal graphics are sooo much more cleaner than the other related games like Road Avenger. It looks like they manually touched up each frame.

[@0Ninja0Dude0]

Man two games I'd love to see remakes for are dinosaurs for hire and tyrants fight through time. So many hours of my childhood dumped into these

[@infamoussquire2955]

randomly found my pc playing this video after i unlocked it.. first time here keep it up bud!

[@UltromanTheTacoman]

If you like ninja sidescrollers, you should check out "The Messenger". It's in a more ninja-like setting, and the story is amazing and fun :D

[@Tweaked818]

I will forever be a sega fanboy even though i grew up with nintendo mostly

[@TogonzoMedia]

To me, Alys was always "Alysa" - it was obvious to me that the Phantasy Star developers had to use 4 characters for names due to hardware constraints and that proved challenging in the localization. They probably struggled with renaming her "Lisa" since it would fit in the limited space they had but they stuck with "Alys" and hoped we'd pronounce it "ah-leece" ...

[@yezzir8929]

Watching the moving truck leave with his Space Harrier Arcade cabinet was the saddest thing I've ever watched.

Sad watching the Space Harrier cabinet leave the nest. But you did a good and hard thing to do sir.

[@unoclayGaming]

I got a chance to play the kinetic motion "cab" version of Space Harrier at Funspot in NH and boy, it's a great experience.

[@RWL2012]

How are they doing nowadays...? I'm in the UK but want to go to "America" for the first time sometime once back in relatively normal times just to go to that place.

[@unoclayGaming]

@@RWL2012 Havent been up there for a year or two but it was still going strong when i was there last. Its a funny place. They market it as a "family fun center" which means a fair number of kids running around, along with mini golf and stuff like that---but its large enough that you can usually find a quiet row of many games and just pull up a stool and waste away the hours. Its in a rather "remote" area of USA, so if you plan to go there, figure on perhaps visiting Maine (portland, etc) or camping, or maybe a Canadian visit too. Not exactly near major metro area at all. Thats what makes Funspot unique--its like...almost old-time arcade without any glamor to it--its a huge building with tons of rare arcade games in an almost random out of the way place.

I used to wake up early in the morning. Collect my allowance at the door. Feed a stray cat at the shrine. Say hi, to my girlfriend as I passed by her place of employment at the flower shop. Finally reaching my destination, You Arcade. Where I blew that entire allowance on Space Harrier.

[@np9750]

Thank you so much. Love your videos. Chef kiss!!!

You should talk about the steam release thanks to workshop gives you access to nearly every game thanks to the community

[@burakgursoy1388]

I got a no-name 32x connector cable and then my mega drive 2 was always on and the only way to power it down was to disconnect the power cable. Apprently you need to break a pin to fix those cables, as it always feeds power. I bought a new one from RGC instead of messing with it

[@OrangeGeemer]

32x are expensive! I thought I could get one for 15 bucks, but now they are over 300 on ebay.

[@FennecTECH]

32x emulation would make it into the ultimate flashcart

[@victorguerin5252]

I loved genesis. Shadowrun, Dune Battle for Araxis and Act Raizer.

[@Jkoziol72577]

I remember back then parents were so ignorant and how backwards compatibility worked. because they had to go buy a new system like a super Nintendo. They could not figure out why they could just not make the new games compatible with the old system. And then they were talking about well we need to explain to our kids about marketing schemes and how big companies are trying to do whatever they can to take your money for you. Like the kids really understood that they just wanted the latest greatest thing. It's nice nowadays that the parents do understand all of this.

[@enricosalerno3621]

Owner of many console since the Master System 2....I hava moved all the consoles in the attic and condensed everything in a PC up to PS3 emulation.....a lot of people talk about lagging bla bla bla....i have no felt that and happy to have crisp images via emulation

[@monteranceross8846]

This might be an old video from February 2021 but I just now came across the and I just wanted to say Bonanza Brothers is one of my favorite Sega Genesis game and there are a lot of people who love the game so that game does have a following not a big following but it does have a following meaning it does have fans that like the game

[@TiredOldSparky]

Amazing stuff! Keep up the good work!!

[@SpaceManRD]

Funny that you draw the comparison, because I feel like Panzer Dragoon was a better spiritual successor to Space Harrier than Planet Harrier or the PS2 remake. It feels like a more natural expansion of the gameplay than just tacking a targeting gimmick onto something that otherwise plays just like the 80s arcade game.

[@AxiomofDiscord]

Favorite Game as a Player Secret of Mana Favorite game with a Critical Eye Tetris NES Nintendo Version not Tengen Most Important Game Donkey Kong Country but because of the memories playing it all the way through with my father. Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego is second as it is my most memorable played through with my mother. This was the NES version. I just spent more time with my mother than my father so the experience with my father was more valuable for its rarity and that is why it eeks out the top spot.
