      It was one of if not THE best era for games and game music!

      @@gullpayne I was surprised how good it was. Levels are a good length and it gets quite busy at times but the soundtrack is mint and it plays fluidly. Didn't get a PAL release but it has been fantastic converted for PAL (which was what I'm playing there)
      Thanks for watching mate!

    Very cool selection of games there mate! I love the mega cd, I always say that the hard time people gave it back in the day bounced off me coz I was having so much fun playing the games!
    I was sad we didn’t get a translation of Shadowrun, I thought that looked really interesting so that was annoying. I remember a fan started working on it years ago but I think it never came to fruition.
    Jaguar XJ220 is a game I spent a lot of time with, good to see it here! The track editor was a blast and I remember making courses for my friend to try out, that was so fun!
    Awesome stuff dude, a great video with some amazing games!

      @@dibbsgaming in glad you enjoyed it mate bi too fell in love with the MegaCD from the get go when I played one in 1993. I enjoyed all the FMV games (I almost included Road Avenger and Cobra Command but didn't want to oversaturate the vid with FMV games and steer from too many common titles)
      The level of disrespect the CD gets is precisely why John Bunday, myself and a couple others have started the MegaCD appreciation society (on John's channel) and he has converted loads of games that were NTSCU or unreleased to work on PAL systems. So much greatness!

    A great selection of games! Some I still need to convert but Night Strikers I think I downloaded to do before going on holiday 😂

      @@bundjohn nice. That one's on the mini 2 quite handily along with the Ninja Warriors (though I used your PAL copy to video originally I went with the mini 2 one to boost the pic quality due to not feeding the signal through a converter)
      A few that need translating before conversion too (particularly Shadowrun!)

      @ Shadowrun is still being worked on, I even offered to help on the discord for the translation group but didn’t hear back 😂

    Y’know as a mega cd fan, I’ve played ridiculously few of those games! Definitely some beauties in there that I either need to play or play again - tho I’m not sure I’m that sad time cop didn’t see a release… 😂 anyway, we’re forgetting the most important question in the whole of the mega cd history
    Is it silp heed…. Or sill pheed…?!!!?

      @@Gaming_For_Ages I say it as one word (Sil-feed) and always have so that's what I stick with.
      More than happy to chat about Mega CD anytime mate if you want recommendations. I just love spreading a love of games (sega focussed or not) and hopefully when the Mega CD Appreciation Society eps get a bit more off the ground me and the other 3 lads can drive home one game at a time how good it was.
      Oh and thanks for watching mate!

      @ yeah I think I’ve always said sill-pheed - but I think I’ve also always wondered if I was wrong!!
      But now we know!!
