Having owned allot of this stuff back in the day. Your videos always give me weird mixed feelings of nostalgia and regret for selling off my collection several years ago. Thanks for the content!
I sold a copy of Deep Fear on the Saturn for £38 a few years ago. DAMN!
Imagine if you had all that money back .. tisk tisk
Billy Mays here with the Sega CD...
Mega CD outside US.
BILLY MAYS HERE FOR MEGA-CD!
Oh shit you killed me hahahahaha!
Rofl!!!
I recently hacked my PSP and now I have the PSP Sega CD
This is insane, I remember stores couldnt give these away if they wanted too. I remember seeing a lot of these game for .99 each at the bargain basket
Yeah before the big retro game blow up I remember getting sega cd, 32x consoles for $10. turbo grafx and master systems for $15, etc.
It’s true. I remember seeing piles of these at the toy and games shops when I was a kid.
If only we weren't noobs at collecting back then
I remember certain games always had value, like Sonic CD for example, I remember back when nobody wanted Sega CD, that game would be like 50$, this was around 2002-2005?
@@maxxdahl6062 I remember way back in the day, you could get a 32x complete in box for 50$, I'm pretty sure it only doubled in price, I know it's cheap because theres no good games on it, however there is one good game on 32x however, which is Colibri
I love that he gives Dark Wizard the credit it deserves. I have spent HUNDREDS of hours playing that game over the years. The music is absolutely gorgeous and doesn't get tedious. I like playing Amon the best :D
I remember this game. 10 out of 10. Wow. Memories.
I bought Dark wizard in around 94 and from a video rental place, and it was fantastic.
The Amazing Spider-Man Vs The Kingpin was my fave Sega CD title
"Games you should get day 1" ... *shows $4000 worth of games*
:|
Al ask him if he can give us free games
Well, you get those on day 1 and then save up a few years for the next batch ;-)
Snatcher alone goes for $1000 these days.... Basically they're suggesting that folks go out and download it ;-)
That Mega SD flashcart looking good 😂
haha
Road Rash on the Sega Saturn actually has Soundgarden's music video on it!
You can tell Jon is such a nice dude. Thanks for having him on the channel to share all this interesting info!
Snatcher is probably the best game ever made of all time. I'd recommend Panic! (insane cartoon puzzle game) and Soul Star doesn't get nearly enough love. It was like Star Fox before Star Fox.
John Riggs: RIGG'd Games also you can't forget Popful Mail!
Dude,Soulstar came out in 1994/1995 IIRC so it's more like a sprite-based Star Fox.
I never played it buy always wanted to. Why wasn't taht game re-released or remade? Did they lose the code or something?
Yes Snatcher is awesome - would be nice if someone made an updated version of it or an official sequel but I guess it will never happen sadly
Joel Monteiro Guess who has the IP rights to Core Design games? Square-Enix.
I recommend the Japanese 🇯🇵 version of Final Fight on the Sega CD.It Is uncensored like the arcade.Poison & Roxy look exactly as they do in the arcade.
thanks for giving the Sega CD some love - one of my favorite consoles! Here is a few titles I would recommend:
Wolfchild
Android Assault
Silpheed
Batman Returns
Hook
Space Adventure Cobra
Popful Mail
Dungeon Explorer
AWESOME! I am proud to say I own most of those games mentioned :) I would also have to recommend: Pitfall for Sega CD, Demolition Man, BC Racers, Slipheed and Ecco The Dolphin 1&2 (AMAZING soundtrack) Popful Mail, Soul Star, NHL 94,Sewer Shark, Tomcat Alley, and Night Trap 32X/Sega CD. There are still many, many more great games for the system. HIGHLY underrated. Nice to see the system is finally getting some respect.
One thing I always recommend for the Sega CD/Mega CD is to replace the power supplies with a modern all-in-one version from a company like retrogamesupply.com. They make modern laptop-style power supplies for various consoles which run off a single mains plug, and have versions that will work on any combination of Sega Genesis/Sega CD and or 32X. And as the power supplies are laptop-style, they'll work in any region - you just need an appropriate mains to figure-eight style cable, like you'll find on almost any printer, the PS3 slim, etc.
My JVC x'eye is now on its way. Thanks Mr. Metal and John!
I got into the SEGA CD on the ground floor luckily, and I still have my original top loader from '93; still works too (amazingly). I've semi-retired it to preserve it though, so I use a JVC X'Eye as my workhorse system. If you can find one, I highly recommend it. No issues playing burned games, and it has the best sound output of all SEGA Genesis/CD setups. Pricey but practical. Can't fault John Hancock's selections; but I'd add Eternal Champions, Batman Returns, Silpheed and Mortal Kombat to the list if you're starting out. Mortal Kombat gets a lot of flak for load times, but it's the best 16-bit version of the game. Enjoyed the video Metal! 🤘
I realize this was 2 years ago, but have you ever checked how much the X'Eye is to fix? Because as you mentioned, it is expensive. I would probably go the other way and retire the X'Eye since it is rare, parts may be hard to come by and it may be hard to fix and run the top-loader into the ground since they are the cheapest of all the Sega CDs, the easiest to fix, etc.
I had a model 2 top loader back in the day, one friend of mine had the model 1 tray loader, then my other friend had a CDX.
A couple of years back I bought a Sega Genesis box o stuff from Craigslist for $100 - in it came 2 Sega Genesis consoles (one a model 1 non TMSS, one a model 2), a pair of Sega CDs (one model one with the tray, one model 2 with the lid, and the clip on addition/extension that sits under the model 1) about 15 Sega CD games, menacer lightgun, justifier lightgun, a couple six button controllers and a couple 3 button controllers, all the hookups, AND a 32x with adapter plates etc and all hookups including the Genesis 1 conversion cable for 32x. Was pretty pleased with that score!
🤣🤣
MJR, you had to ask what Final Fight was?! C'mon, brah!
Really enjoyed the info and editing in this video. I'm also extremely jealous of some of those Sega CD games.
I don't really play many 2D brawlers or fighters... They didn't really come out on PC back in the 90s.
MetalJesusRocks I hear ya. I played all of the Sierra games back in the day on my family's IBM PS/2. Final Fight was a staple in nearly every arcade I went into when I was a kid.
MetalJesusRocks dont have a sega cd yet but u got me back in to collecting for psone and gameboy
MongolianCh0p I remember playing Bad Street Brawler CGA style for DOS. It was awful
He also asked where he was at the beginning of the video, and I'm pretty sure he actually sort of knew.
Nice pick with Dark Wizard. That game is great and also has a spectacular soundtrack with separate themes for each character.
Hey, your copy of Road Rash CD is apparently NHL '98 in disguise.
NHL '98 for Sega Saturn no less....lol.
Guerilla Grue Plays the games were all marked 99 cents clearance, I swapped cases
lol. I saw that and I thought you were swapping price tags. It was nice of them to let you swap cases, even my local GameStop has let me do that a few times.
You pretty much have to swap Sega CD, Saturn, and early PS1 long box cases. Unfortunately, they are notoriously easy to crack, and the hinges, if not careful, can break too. Unlike normal CD cases where you can go to Walmart or Target and get replacements to make them look almost brand new, those longbox cases are pretty much non existent unless you were to raids Sega's warehouse. I am currently a very late to the game Saturn & Sega CD collector and I found several rare games recently where the cases needed to be swapped to look nice. It's really your only option if you care about original packaging.
I do games ya lets talk about stealing ! Your all so cool ! Steal steal steal ! You should have been arrested
"Lords of Thunder....and rock n' roll!!!"
Great Kiss reference!!!
SEGA CD has some awesome stuff I feel like the Saturn and CD need more love.
The Saturn has plenty of Love, but the CD is underrated.
They should've just released it as the sega neptune
@@Theshark15z This. Everyone loves the saturn, CD gets flak for the FMV games which weren't even the majority of the library.
Hey a very good friend of mine is also from redding California. I'm all the way in uk but I love your videos. Nothing like sega to bring back my childhood. Thanks guys.
Wow! Some Dark Wizard love, I've loved it since the summer of 1997 when I first played it. It's why I still have a Sega CD hooked up! It's great! (The only game I went after a second copy of)
John must have swapped the Sega CD case on Road Rash as it was priced for Sega Saturn's NHL '98...
Lunar, Dark Wizard, Snatcher, Shining Force... I did not expect such things from this man.
A sealed copy of Snatcher for only $25! Mother *expletive deleted*
That's what *I said* :)
He paid even less than the 25 for it! I wish I walked into a pawn shop and saw Snatcher open or sealed for less than 50 bucks...
I had a copy of Power Blade 2 (NES) for about 36 cents (Goodwill, 2004.) He still has me beat by rarity (A SEALED COPY?) by a wide margin.
@@101Volts i have a complete pb2 as well. Part of me wishes it was sealed, part of me thinks getting to play it as a kid was worth it.
@@nyastclair8174 The best way is to buy the game when it first arrived at the store, play it, enjoy it, keep it for twenty plus years and realise what's old is new again.
You forgot the JVC X'Eye.
Whoa! John Hancock traveled forward and time and became a video game collector!
John is always great to talk to when he comes up to Vancouver for the expo, super friendly, humble and always willing to talk about games, obscure stuff and Star Wars.
For me this is such a nostalgia ride. I myself and my friends used to play Sega Megadrive back in the day. In Europe Sega was in many cases the superior system with it's broad variety of games.
But few ever owned a Mega Cd or Sega Cd. It's a obscure system with a mysterious aura. There a lot of good games though. Some day I will play Shining Force CD or the Lunar games........
Ohh and what a huge difference in graphics when comparing Road Rash on Mega Cd and Playstation. That tells a lot about how fast the tecnology improved back then......
Thanks John
/Sega Fan boy
I had a JVC X-eye and loved it. The oldest game I still own is Vay. Sega CD introduced me to Working Designs games and I loved all those back then.
The way John smiles cracks me up.
Great video. I really like John Hancock and the Mega cd too! I do have quite a few titles, including some American imports. Its just a shame that a lot of the games are very expensive nowadays.
The Sega CD had so much potential. I still own several of the games for that system. I gave my Snatcher copy to a friend of mine a couple of years ago; crazy how much that game goes for now.
holy shit... a SEALED copy of SNATCHER?
would easily go for 10k today
@@kelley2098 as of today on pricecharting.com a sealed copy is $1261 so not even close to 10k
@@harleymoody34 That's for complete in box. Factory sealed is a much more valuable item.
EDIT: I am completely wrong, I just checked the price chart and yeah, new is $1261.
@@METATRONmusic I mean that's still a lot though
@@harleymoody34 Complete nice copies go for 1k-1.5k. A sealed copy would go for exponentially more.
a few reasons:
price charts doesn't take into account condition
sales of sealed copies are rare and go back into the past when games were cheaper
price charts often accidentally allows cibs into sold listings, I have seen it tons of times
games are getting more expensive on the daily.
the price can basically be decided by the seller when theres probably less than 100 sealed copies in existance.
bonus-pricecharts doesn't take into account extra paperwork like warranty cards
You will never see a sealed snatcher like Johns go for 1.2k I would expect 2.5k+ and due to how much this game is revered it'll sell for way more.
I've sold a few grails in my time collecting and have been hit with the "buuuUUt PriCeChartS saYS tHis". Its just not the case, they are worth more, I end up selling them for way more than price charts value. For example Bucky O' hare NES fully CIB mint pricecharts says 495 CAD I sold it for 1400 CAD with all the paperwork
When Metal Jesus does a Sega Genesis/Mega Drive and 32x Buying Guide, my life will be complete
The only heavy hitters that I have on the Sega CD are Snatcher, Shining Force CD, Popful Mail, Vay, Dark Wizard, and Robo Aleste. I really wish I was collecting for it back when it came out :/
I have been making lists of the best games on every retro system in the hopes of collecting them. Your buying guides are helping a TON! Keep up the good work!
Love the long videos, you should do more longer ones.
My friday videos are usually longer like this. The tuesday videos are Bonus.
You forgot the JVC X'Eye. The best SegaCD and the best Sega Genesis console ever... at the same time !!
Rewatching this for the first time in years. The thing I like most is the long-shots of the hardware. RUclipsrs of 2022, take note - it's OK to keep focused on a still for longer than two seconds. It's easier than us hitting pause to get a better look and it makes editing easier for you as well.
Road Avenger
Soulstar
Wolfchild
Sol-Feace
AH3 Thunderstrike
...are a few of my favs. \m/.
I've wanted a Sega CD since I was 12 years old. now I'm 38 and it's still on my Christmas list.lol
Beat'em up is now brawler...I need to update myself....
Been rocking my Sega CDX for years!
Recommended games:
Popful Mail
Sol-Feace
Vay
Phantasy Star 2 Text Adventures
Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure
The Misadventures of Flink
Awww, no love for the JVC X-Eye?
i know thats qwhat i was saying look at my comments lol
i love jvc xeye
That thing is the bomb...hard to find tho.
Silpheed is a spectacular shooter with a very intelligent use of the FMV for the backgrounds
MJR - I am super surprised you didn't know what sort of game Final Fight is! 9:30. I think it the Sega CD version is one of the best, as it has all 3 characters from the arcade available.
Nice review though - Always great to see John co hosting!
Eternal Champions and Flashback were good SegaCD games too.
starsiegeplayer I could never get into flashback
I just had the model 2 genesis/model 2 cd/32x set up myself. Friend of mine in school had the CDX. But I guess I had the last laugh as my set up lasted longer.
Shining Force CD is reason enough to buy a Sega CD. Add Dark Wizard and Lunar 2 and you have a must own system! This review was spot on! It was so fun to see a Master Collector like John review the Sega CD. It doesn't get much better than this.
Road Rash was so much better on the 3D0. great game
CDX is compatible with the 32X, but there is a special 32X base you had to get to allow the CD cover to open without detaching the 32X. I believe there is even a diagram in the 32X manual that shows the different configurations.
Third World War was one of my favorites for the system.
You guys always put ideas into my head and a smile on my face. lol. So grateful this channel exists.
P.S Soundgarden Is mine and my father's favorite. Brings me right back to being a kid and playing the Sega Saturn CD.
I still have my Sega Genesis , 32X and Sega CD. They all still work. I don't play on the old Sega hardware anymore. When I want to play a Sega game I play on PC with an emulator called Fusion. Fusion plays Mastersystem, Game Gear, Genesis, 32X, and Sega CD games. I loved Dark Wizard and Shining Force CD! Great games!
So happy to see Lunar on here, but should have added Lunar 2 too!
Lunar-Silver Star blew me and my brother's mind when the dragon began to speak. Always will remember that day. Thank you Blockbuster for renting out memories.
Oh, and warning to new collectors: A Keio Flying Squadron sells on eBay for about $1100-$1200, so maybe expect to leave that one off your lists.
Or...you could emulate it... until it's released on a virtual console or game compilation.
Yeah, but we're collectors. You know how we are. Really, we could emulate almost every retro system and game out there, but we love having the original versions. They make our shelves pretty :-D
Hence the reason why I tell everybody to get out there right NOW and pick up PS2, XBOX, PSP, Wii and Vita games... 10 years from now we'll all be kicking ourselves if we don't....
MetalJesusRocks Agreed, especially about the Vita.
Fun fact for Keio Flying Squadron. They actually released a demo in Europe. Crazy thing about the demo, JVC left the level select code leaving the full game accessible. It comes up on ebay from time to time for about $40. So if you have a Mega Everdrive, or a way to region free your console, you can technically have a physical copy of the game. :)
John Hancock is such a happy guy, I love it.
Would love to see a Sega Saturn buying guide.
Funny you should mention that... ;)
MetalJesusRocks Oh?! ^-^
leave me in the room of doom with a bong, an eighth, doritos and mountain dew. do not disturb.
MJR, I always hang around til the end of your videos, I love the outro commentary.
♥ L U N A R ♥
The best!
Aaaaalllllleeeeeeeeeeeexxxx!!!!
I bought a Sega Mega CD in 1994 and had a few games including Earthworm Jim and Double Switch. It was way ahead of it's time to show actual actors and real video footage on a game, but obviously lacked some in game continuity. Over all I loved it at the time and was very impressed by it. I was 19 at the time I bought this!! Strange to see how my younger years are now video game nostalgia. Man I feel old!!
Met Reggie and metal jesus at the PDX Retro Gaming Expo today... Reggie was way cool and friendly, apparently, jesus thinks he's the real Jesus because he could barely be bothered to acknowledge a fan telling him he liked his channel. Oh well. Got some good games so at least that part of it was worth it.
nutz4040 I got the same feeling.
Odd, he doesn't seem like he'd be like that at all.
Soup or Nintendo? I didn't think so either, then I bumped into him randomly and said hi and what not and he just gave the "uh huh thanks" and walked away. Reggie struck up a conversation with me over a game he could see in my bag. Talked to him for a few minutes.
I would feel very uncomfortable if some random nigga came up to me and made me aware of my clout
Do you realize how backwards your words truly are? Not to get all religious on you, but uhm, the real Jesus went out of his way to speak to everyone.
When it comes to Sega CD games, the ones I'd include on that list are:
Silpheed - amazing shooter game
Stellar Fire - intro by Michael Dorn
Lunar: The Silver Star
Sol-Feace
Popful Mail
you forgot about the JVC X'EYE..
Dont forget popful mail, awesome game!
The region thing: cartridges (more of than not) were region free. The mega drive checks the cartridge for the region. The Mega CD region is part of its bios, so if the disc doesn’t match the bios, it won’t boot. There are ways around this (ever drive can boot different region bios files etc) and you can get region free bios chips.
I own a Sega CDX and I'm very satisfied with it. 😉
CDX FTW!
Kelly Herbert. ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY CDX!
kikayei I just picked one up not long ago, and it's my favorite retro purchase I made. A bit pricey but so worth it imo.
kikayei I had a CDX a long time ago. Should have kept it. Had the games that made having it worth it, like Lunar The Silver Star and Eternal Blue.
john tracy. Duuuuuude, I feel your pain of regret. I still have those games you mentioned. 😉
I remember playing Lunar 2: Eternal Blue. One of the favorites of mine of all time
You gotta have Popful Mail for SEGA CD. Great gameplay, awesome soundtrack, whacky characters, and actually very solid voice acting. definitely a must play for the system.
That altered beast hat is super cool!
I have the Model 1. I was working at Toys R Us, and they had one in the back that they were going to get rid of. I bought from the store for $1, and it was the best $1 I ever spent. I played the chit out of it--some of my favorite games are still Sega CD titles. After all these years it still works perfectly. I think my favorite title is The Dark Wizard, a game I cherish.
Not only in Europe called Mega, but also in Brazil.
Interesting. It's called Mega everywhere actually including Japan. Wiki says it was only called Sega CD in North America and Brazil which might be a mistake.
Here we had the two names referring to the CD. In the video game is called Mega Drive.
chakanbhz Its called mega drive and mega CD every where except NA
chakanbhz Oh and in Nigeria for some reason they had both Mega cd and Sega cd and genesis and mega drive
I rented that exact copy of Out Of This World / Heart Of The Alien (Along with a player) a few times when I lived in Newport as a kid- damn fun game!
The most reliable one of all is missing the X-eye.
WraithofWor I have it but stored away
I kinda figured you did somewhere...lol
@19:14 The roadrash .99 cent sticker is actually NHL 98 for SEGA that is a gamestop-EB SKU 922172
I was really into how Sega had the different side borders on the game packaging. It's reall dumb but for some reason I thought it was really cool back then. Like for regular Genesis games it was Red, for 32X it was Yellow, and for Sega CD it was Blue. Cool stuff. Sega CD may not have been that great, but it definitely paved the way for future CD technology in gaming. Good job as always guys!!!
"I prefer horizontal."
My aunt bought my cousin a Sega CD when it was new and expensive. She had no idea what it was the guy at Kmart told her it was the best system on the market. She bought Rise of Dragon. It was pretty cool.
You should make a follow-up video about cleaning records and maintaining a vinyl collection.
My 32x works fine with my cdx
The coolest thing about Road Rash on the Sega CD is that it's the only version with the bands playing wile you race.
No JVC X'Eye (WonderMega) love?
Wow I have never seen that Dark Wizard game before, that looked amazing! Most of the others were on my radar, but wow Dark Wizard has me excited. Great video!
Did you ever have the JVC X'Eye? It was the same thing and idea as the CD-X, but was bigger.
I'm going through SEGA of all generations almost with excellent 8Bitdo controllers emulated on PC. What an adventure! My kids love these older games and have so much for fun!
Somehow I talked my mom into getting me the Sega CD back in the day while all my friends where Nintendo Fan Boys. I swear it was such a cooler system. Had so much variety in games with the CDs, cartridges, and 32x.
haha "buyers guide"in 2016! Im happy i collected in the early 2000s! The shit was dirt cheap back then! Now i wouldn start a Sega/Mega CD Colection! 🤔
That's what's been holding me back. I have some of the must have games from the early Ebay days, but no way would I recommend starting now.
datamanmachine I mean you could apply that statement to so many platforms, as buying games for older systems is just more difficult overall due to just more people aware of the market, alongside other reasons.
Yeah... I have a nice collection of burnt cdrs in a folder but it's hard to get nice shiny copies for the shelf. They fit well with the Saturn games.
I want to hangout with John and just play the most obscure shit I can find in his collection.
i would definitely recommend DUNE the original :D
I had a sega cd model 1 back then, you don't really need a controller to open the cd tray necessarily, if you turn it on then press the reset button, the cd tray will open, and if you push the tray with your hand it will close, another trick that I remember was to reset any game without pressing the reset button, you can just press a+b+c+start on the controller
No mention of sewer shark!?!?
Sewer Shark while a decent title, but is not a recommended experience on Mega-CD. Despite it being my favorite game console of all time, but some games are just a little above it's pay-grade...because 3DO! :-)
That's where you play Sewer Shark, should you want to :-)
Metal Jesus was absolutely right. It was called the Mega CD in Europe & Japan. Can't believe John Hancock didn't know this. Also, burns don't hurt the CDX any more than they do a regular Sega CD. It's just a rumor that it wears out lasers faster & I suppose his point is if it does wear it out then it's just harder to replace in the CDX, but it doesn't wear down any faster or anything.
Has there ever been, definitive, proof that burned CD's damage CD lens after extensive use?
They CAN stress the lens however the damage is theoretical just on that assumption. But that is not to say that would not happen with a regular pressed CD either.
I think it also depends on the quality of the CD-R's being used. For example some cheap Verbatim disc will likely damage your lens faster than a high quality Taiyo-Yuden.
There is no evidence that substantiates that. These are myths perpetuated by people with worn out lens. The fact is lens wear out over time. It's called wear and tear. Now the quality of the disc is important in other aspects. The playback is much better on the better quality CDs but that's about it.
No, at least not generally.
Ideally, a properly burned CD is supposed to read just fine in most CD drives with pickups that are in good condition, including drives used on the Sega CD considering that it only runs at realtime speed (1x).
What would be more likely to happen is that there can potentially be an increased risk of disc read errors that can possibly disrupt gameplay when using inferior quality CD-Rs and/or if the disc is burned at too fast of a speed (especially if a high speed burn makes use of the zoned CLV burning strategy).
Cheaper CD-Rs and/or faster burns tend to have increased incidences of BLER (block error) during reading, which may usually be compensated for by error correction. However, there is a limit to how far that can help. And, preferably, there be little to no BLER.
My recommendation would be to use the highest quality media you can find and burn at the slowest speed possible.
However, this is easier said than done as good quality CD-Rs are getting harder to find. For instance, someone mentioned Taiyo Yuden, which are generally made in Japan and are excellent discs. However, TY has been out of the business for a couple of years now with their technology sold to CMC Magnetics, so what's left of Japanese-made TY media is whatever you can find as new old stock.
Usually, you may be able to get by okay using media made by CMC or Ritek, especially if we're talking about media that's made in Taiwan. Just burn it slow to increase the odds of recording a reliable disc.
As for Verbatim, they tend to be decent enough, though their DataLife Plus line of discs are actually very good and worthy of recommendation.
The collector's market for games like "Snatcher" might not crumble.
Being able to download the disc images from ROM sites and to burn them onto CD-Rs would make the games more accessible. However, original and complete copies of rare and exceptional games may still be collector's pieces and may still maintain high value.
I miss my Sega CD. A lot of games that you mentioned were favorites but one of my all time favorites was Road Avenger. Track based game that was pretty much watching an anime with a few times controls. That opening will always be one of my favorites lol
i remember playing sonic cd a lot at my neighbors house as a kid. i was never a huge sega guy but that was a great sonic game
Hey relax, pretend it's a game.
SHOOT THE TUBES, DOGMEAT!
@@perunplague9794 TURN AND BURN BEACH BUM!!
Now that’s my main man!
I never had a Sega CD, but my dad did buy me Sonic CD on the PC back in the days, but some time later it broke, then he replaced it with the Sonic and Knuckles Collection for the PC..Still awesome
Very cool calling it a Frankenstein System. I called mine the Sega Monster System. Did get the chance to play Lunar: Eternal Blue much but I did play Lunar: Silver Star a lot. Unfortunately I could never get past the Black Dragon. My characters were powered enough to defeat him but the battle took awhile and during the battle after about the 5th time I would attack the music would stop playing but the battle would continue and I would defeat the Black Dragon but the game would freeze after the defeated dragon left the screen. Another good rpg was Vay. I played it as much as Lunar and Shining Force CD. Loved the cut scenes. Truly this was one of my favorite ad-ons just adding more games to my library to go with my Genesis games same for the 32X. Made a monster of a system but it was very fun.
