  • "You shoot the thing, I shoot the thing ." Solid strategy, Amelie! 🤣🤣🤣

    I'm 90's kids. The Sega Genesis was the very first gaming console that I had the pleasure of owning. I used to get so frustrated and quit playing often back in the '90s when I was trying to beat Sonic the Hedgehog (1991), Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (1992), and Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles (1994). I also recall the Game Genie for Sega Genesis.

    In case of Sonic 2, the lady is right to say it's pixelated. Sonic games were designed with pixelated graphics to make use of artifacts on a CRT Television, so the pixelated waterfall and the bushes in Sonic 2 would look transparent instead of a mesh of pixels. In fact, Sonic 2 looks way better in a television of that time, than it does in modern consoles and monitors.
  • Everyone who played SoR2 in the day: That's NOT the end of the first level, come on, man! Still entertaining to see
  • @gk15
    Streets of Rage is something you can play any time. So much fun and at the same time challenging.
  • Amelie’s strategy always works. “You shoot the thing and I shoot the thing” Teamwork!
  • @Mankey619
    I love that younger generations are appreciating and enjoying these old games. I wanna see them play some SNES, N64 and PS1 games too.
  • @a_real_one2000
    As Sonic fan who grew playing Genesis it hurt a little bit to hear them say😢 “I played sonic on the DS” Sonic & Knuckles combo cartridge is still all time great gaming product.
  • The dude saying i was still trying to figure the controls lmao 🤣 Button A: jumps Button B: jumps Button C: jumps. Theres just literally one button 😅 what the actual......
  • I grew up with these old games. I’ve never seen Comix Zone before. That game looks really cool and unique.
  • @mattjames112
    "I've got to get the controls!" Sonic is literally a one button game.
  • @Instrulnomical
    Aww. . . No Golden Axe, Ecco The Dolphin, Battletoads, Castle Of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse, The Lion King, Robo Cop Vs. Terminator, Primal Rage, Any TMNT Game?! Hoping For A Part 2 Of People Playing Sega Genesis Or Any Classic Video Games For That Matter! 🤞
  • This was great, if a little bit clumsy, to watch! If you guys ever do another episode, here's a few great games to try out: Single Player: Alien Soldier Castle of Illusion Desert Strike Dragon's Fury (two player take turns) Dune: The Battle for Arrakis Ecco The Dolphin Flashback Kid Chameleon Musha Quackshot Rocket Knight Adventures Road Rash II (also two player, two tiny screens) Shinobi III Thunder Force IV (select order of the first four stages) Zero Tolerance Two Players: Contra: The Hard Corps Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine Speedball 2 Virtua Racing World of Illusion Multi: Columns III FIFA Soccer 95 Mega Bomberman Mutant League Hockey NBA Jam: Tournament Edition NHL 96 Pepenga Pengo Puzzle & Action The Lost Vikings Yu Yu Hakusho: Makyou Toitsusen
  • Whoever picked the titles did a solid job especially GunStar Heroes! Didn't think I'd see that gem pulled up. They all did good though and my ranking is pretty on par with theirs:)
  • @tehshingen
    Sonic 2? Glad you guys were nice to the young folks, they at least had access to spin dash.
  • @jeremyspry8578
    Mutant League Football and Mutant League Hockey were my faves as well as Home Alone. Of the ones played Comix Zone, Sonic 2 and Streets of Rage 2 were my faves as a kid
