Most games are the ones developed in-house by SEGA it seems. Probably a way cheaper way of getting out a collection than to get the rights for games from Disney and other studios. They probably had to include some of those third party games for the mini to justify the price though.
Now this is how you do a review for a game like this! I was wondering what all xame with it and several reviews just read out the names. You did it perfectly! The games and the gameplay so I can see what I'd be getting.
I really dig the rewind feature here but I also experienced a fair amount of lag during my time playing with the online features. It was nice that they included some ways to mix up the boarders/presentation though. And I still think it's a pretty good value despite my relative unfamiliarity with classic Genesis titles. Nice box shots at the beginning dude :D
Yes I agree! But the thing that bugs me the most: Sega didn't put all of these Genesis games as playable content in the game *Yakuza 6* where the player go to "Club Sega."
Thank You for keeping it real. And in my opinion about the lag when going online,maybe what they were trying to do was say that couch-coop is better than online because for us that are older will start to feel nostalgic about how you meet your best friend and how you guys would chill and play games. Anyway,enough of my ramblings. You guys rock.🎸🏆
Thanks for the positive feedback. Maybe one day I'll run for president lol. Thanks for watching and giving us a shot. It's so hard to get views on RUclips unless you have over 100k subscribers so thanks for taking the time.
I bought this title a while back and I have yet to give it a thorough playthrough because I don't remember these games being this difficult to play. I used to play "Shining in the Darkness" a TON. I was great at this game. These types of games are my bread and butter. However, I start SIND on this set and I can't get past two sets of slime without dying right off the bat? No way did I die this fast back in the day. Thinking that maybe I was just a little rusty, I tried other games. Same deal. Can't get past a few baddies before I get obliterated. This brings me to what I have learned about "roms" of these classic games. The people who made these titles available for PS4 (even the people who made roms playable on PC) have increased the difficulty of all these classics. I once heard that people who downloaded roms for the PC's were complaining that these games were way too easy, so they increased the difficulty. Don't know if this is true, but I tend to believe it because I was NEVER this bad at these classics. Not once. My verdict. These games have been destroyed by those who wanted to increase difficulty, making them no longer fun to play. I keep installing and uninstalling this set but I end up deleting them all over again because I just can't get past a few baddies without dying many times. Especially in SIND. That game was so worn on my Genesis that the board was rattling inside the cartridge. But I loved it. I beat it. I was good at it. This monstrosity included in this set? This is NOT my Shining in the Darkness game that I grew up playing. I don't know what it is, but it is horrible and I refuse to play it again.
@@mediaglitch Yes, I do remember that they upscaled the difficulty in roms because people thought they were too easy. I would definitely look into it. It wouldn't surprise me if it were true. I mean, I LOVE Shining in the Darkness, but it's just not fun anymore because I die right away. Not only that, but many of my hits are misses and every single time I encounter an enemy, they #1, hit first, all the time, and #2, they land a hit nearly 90% of the time while you land hits maybe 60% of the time. Something happened in the porting process and I don't think it was good. I literally cannot advance to another level of the dungeon because I die in less than a few minutes. This game was NOT this bad before.
I think I'll pick this one up despite the fact that I have Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection for the PS3. Even with some issues, this collection is worth having. Thanks Joel for the great review!
Hey thanks for watching, I was comparing the graphics between both of them and they do look better on the ps4 version but its good to have them both. True Sega fans for life. Thanks for watching!
The rewind and the online play feature I thought was amazing. My biggest complaints (though it does not make the game bad at all) is the lack of certain games on the console version that were on the Steam version like Ecco and Ecco Tides of Time and of course SONIC 3 AND KNUCKLES and no extensive trophy system for each game instead of picking and choosing, and of course the
I would have loved it if this collection had eternal champions and primal rage included. But I'm definitely getting this especially for phantasy star games.
@@mediaglitch totally and I actually already got the collection 3 days ago my gamestop actually had one physical switch copy left so I was able to get it before the 6th of December so far I'm really enjoying phantasy star 2 and 4 and 3 along with the rest of the collection including streets of rage
Maybe we will get some of those on the Sega Genesis mini , I know that Castelvania Bloodlines has been officially announced for it so that's good news.
Im late to the party...but I just ordered this today and this video was one of the deciding factors. Like everyone else...Earthworm Jim and Mortal Kombat are conspicuous in their absence. I also would have liked to see Chakan The Forever Man and maybe a pro wrestling title?
Man just got mine Awesome 😎 my First console was the Genesis I had to beg for one for Christmas but it started me on my Video Game journey when you got very little allowance and had to choose your games wisely Thank goodness for my cousin in Nashville he sent me all his old games and Streets of Rage 2 changed my life I still rock to Go Straight 👍Man you were cool when you had your own Tv in your room 😄kids are so spoiled nowadays 😐
I jumped online once a couple months later and it was still broke. Its been a while since then so if its gotten better please let us know in the chat. Thanks.
I was waiting the whole time for you to say Phantasy Star was on here. I had the original of this collection and unlocked them and the original become my favorite on the disc 🙁. I would love to see a collection of just Phantasy Star, one of Ninja Gaiden classic, and Breath of Fire. I wouldn’t mind seeing all the games I grew up with in the 80s & 90s come back polished and on collection discs. I feel it will eventually happen since we are seeing so many lately. Mega Man collection, Metal Slug, Genesis, Namco, Taito, Metal Gear, Samurai Shodown, Street Fighfer, NeoGeo…etc are out and as long as there is money in it the companies with continue to make them. 👍🏾😁
I would like to see a few Madden and NHL games. Those were so clutch on Sega. They aren't made by Sega, but at the time those games could only be played on a Genesis.
I liked the review. I will probably pick this up at some point when I see it on the cheap. It is good but some of the glitches that some of the games have make it worth it on the cheap only to me.
The Sega Genesis Classics compilation isn't all that great because the online multiplayer sucks, all of the Genesis games suffer from input delay and all of the Genesis games' music, sounds and voices sound horrible. And in the Nintendo Switch version of the Sega Genesis Classics compilation, you cannot invite online friends to play against you or team up together against the CPU in the Streets of Rage/Bare Knuckle games.
@@mediaglitch That also makes more sense. Nintendo wants you to pay extra for their Sega Genesis expansion pack app on the Nintendo Switch. If I were you, I would stick with basic apps on the Nintendo Switch such as the Game Boy/Game Boy Color, Super Nintendo and NES apps. I would rather waste my time with them instead of the expansion pack apps.
I really liked this collection and I think it's worth the $30 price tag *only if you never played or own the one on the ps3/360* but if you do then I recommend you to wait for a price drop as this collection is very lacking right of now compared to the ultimate genesis collection even though it had a few games that never make it to the previous collections. also it's been patched now but my progress towards the challenges and trophies progression got erased three times! before I finally plated the collection.
@@mediaglitch to be more precise two times on my own account ( the first time I played this collection my progress got erased, when I tried again I Plated the game then it erased my stuff again ) and one time in a different account that I'm also working on ( again after reaching halfway through my progress got erased! ) then after that a few days ago they released a patch to fix this stupid problem..... by then I got so tired of trying to beat that stupid challenge of the mean bean machine game again so I left it unfinished, I will return to it...... one day.
I dig some of the extras here. I really wish there would be a collection of 3rd party titles. Is it the original Revenge of Shinobi with Batman, Rambo and Godzilla?
the day i make this comment there was an update in the game for new artwork and now i can't get the game window to show up. the steam window says it's running but a window never comes up. i've tried reinstalling and verifying integeraty of game files, and tried putting it in compatability mode for windows xp service pack 3, the game window still won't come up.
@@mediaglitch I had to update my graphics card drivers after updating windows. it's all good now, but when that did happen none of my dx 9 or open gl games worked along with this game, so i had to download nvidia's program that downloads the latest driver for you, but it's all good now, ty anyway!
I miss having Phantasy Star on the collection as well, but it was probably left off because M2 had the rights to it and was working on the superior, newly enhanced Sega Ages Phantasy Star for the Nintendo Switch...it was the first game that I bought and beat when I got my Switch and I'm immensely happy with the way that it turned out, and if I want to play all of the Phantasy Stars in one collection I still have Sonic's Genesis Collection on my PS3 and the 2018 AtGames Genesis Flashback.
yeah I was very happy how that Sega Ages Phantasy star turned out. I still think the Sonic Genesis collection is the best collection we have gotten. Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate the support.
Great collection but lack of good online was a big deal breaker for me. At least it has a good set of games, trophies, and a poster that one side is cool on. Btw protip for online, if you're playing on PS4, use Shareplay. MUCH BETTER than the built in Netcode sadly.
I'm confused. You said the button delay that plagues this collection is a critical disadvantage for these games that rely on surgical platforming like Shinobi. But at the end, you say it's not a game breaking flaw. 🤔
I feel like not all games you need to have very precise action on the buttons. You just have to adjust so if you’re used to speed running a certain game you’re gonna have to adjust to that because its emulation thats not done right but there’s a lot of games on that collection that it doesn’t matter. I still can beat shinobi with the lag but it would be nice if it wasn’t there.
That's disheartening to hear about the online lobbies being so laggy. I was looking forward to playing online with someone. I got this day one and have only played Toe Jam and Earl so far. I have two weeks off coming up and am looking forward to playing the crap out of this thing. Hopefully, the lobbies will be stable by then
I'm enjoying the collection, but missed the full screen and Sonic 1 had blocky bits. The 360 version didn't have that also on the original cartridge for Megadrive.
Dude what a great review! I like this collection all in all, but playing online like you said is a joke. I started playing Streets of Rage 2 with Reggie and he fell asleep because it sucked so bad lol
I agree with you. The PC version has mods that you can add those games into it. Thanks for watching and giving us a chance its extremely hard to get noticed on RUclips.
I'm sorry, Gui, I wish there was something we could do about that but RUclips just doesn't want us to grow sadly. We appreciate your support when you are able to give it.
I think it depends on the game but most of them play and feel great. Sorry it took me so long to get tothis. Some times comment fall through the cracks Thanks for watching. Its hard to get any kind of tracking on this platform without a 100k plus subscribers.
That's a good question, I have never heard that you could but they set it up so it would feel like you could. Thanks for watching it's hard to get traction on youtube without having 100k subs.
@@mediaglitch Im in love with sonic mania style, cause sonic gets an instant boost atack, so cool, also you can play with chars form the animate atm cartoon, like the squirrel princess or the mecha bunny
This list was a deal breaker! Only game i thought was good was shadow dancer and golden axe revenge of shinobi and golden axe the rest of the list horrid! They left out a ton of great games!
On my Xbox One the intro slows done for like 30 seconds. Very irritating. I may uninstall it and reinstall it when i get the time. Otherwise, i still find owning the real ones and playing through a CRT a vastly superior experience. Takes time, place and money but worth it. Im thinking stopping buying these compilations.
too many stinkers, wheres castle of illusion, aladdin, earthworm jim, outrun after burner????nobody wants flickies, gain ground, bonanza bros, crackdown, rubbish. why not just make the 360 ps3 version backwards compat... no they want us to buy them again just like these remasters.
I would say that the 360 version is the best version of all thee games. Thanks for watching and giving us a shot. It's so hard to get views on RUclips unless you have over 100k subscribers so thanks for taking the time.
Where is dumb shit like towel jam and earl and told him another part two and more cool shit like Should Nobe I like a few sports games Al-Sahlawi NBA jams what shoes light up
I totally understand. Thanks for watching and giving us a shot. It's so hard to get views on RUclips unless you have over 100k subscribers so thanks for taking the time.
I own the original system with my personal favorite games, but these collections are fun for the convenience, the extra features, and to check out popular titles that I may have missed out on buying.
its a great collection I woulda like to see Earthworm Jim 1 and 2 that would be awesome and Mortal Kombat 1 2 and 3
Those would have been great additions to the collection as well.
I aggree
i would also add UMK3, The Lion King and Battle city
Auto Gamer you could get the Sega genesis mini for that

Yes I agree!

Lol the bears still going at it after all these years 8:46
lol their worse the rabbits.
Been waiting for this!!
I hope you like it.
I did. It was very good

Solid collection of games, I hear the downside is that audio emulation is sometimes off.
Sometimes but they have worked out some alot of the bugs.
Maximum carnage and toe jam and earl streets of rage 123
MAximum Carnage now that's one I need to revisit.

Maybe we will get some of those on the Sega Genesis mini , I know that Castelvania Bloodlines has been officially announced for it so that's good news.

Facts. They should Sega Genesis classic like sonic genesis collection
Before I open this up, did this ever get patched? I’m not playing Revenge of Shinobi without double jump.
it has a double jump and its totally playable but speed runners might notice a split second delay
Im late to the party...but I just ordered this today and this video was one of the deciding factors.
Like everyone else...Earthworm Jim and Mortal Kombat are conspicuous in their absence. I also would have liked to see Chakan The Forever Man and maybe a pro wrestling title?

Yes it does have the Japanese version on it.
Damn, man! You get way more games than advertised! Thanks for responding. You just sold me on the game!
Think people dont realise is that even back then, on the og console games had lag. Rev shinobi defo had lag i remember it.
I think we get use to that lag sit I definitely feel it here

Sega is awesome, Sega really wass cool.
Sega is the best.
Sega was the shit back in the 90s! They had a big rivalry with Nintendo, the console wars of the 90s
@ANIME ROCKSTAR Then you are a friend of mine. Thanks for watching
That's disheartening to hear about the online lobbies being so laggy. I was looking forward to playing online with someone. I got this day one and have only played Toe Jam and Earl so far. I have two weeks off coming up and am looking forward to playing the crap out of this thing. Hopefully, the lobbies will be stable by then
yeah hopefully they will fix it. Let me know if you ever want to get and give it a try.
I bought this for two player online, however trialed it last night. It was very laggy, input lag and buggy. Will try again tomight.
I'm enjoying the collection, but missed the full screen and Sonic 1 had blocky bits. The 360 version didn't have that also on the original cartridge for Megadrive.
yeah there's definitely some emulation issues.
No star control? Needs the 32X games on there also.
Along with many others.
Is there a way to play the steam version with co-op without online like if me and my brother wanna play on the same computer?
Sorry I honestly don’t know the answer to that.
Dang thanks anyway great review btw
How long does it take to beat the revenge of shinobi 🥷 ? Or how ever it’s spelled
for me about an hour
Hey um just wondering, does your progress still save when you reenter the game?
yes as long as your save it before you leave
@@mediaglitch Ok thank you
No Cyborg Justice
Yeah sadly the list is very long of games people wanted to see on here but didnt get to.
I wish they head some kind of cheat device for this. I'm too lazy and have too many other games I play to devote the time to beat these games.
Truth
Dude what a great review! I like this collection all in all, but playing online like you said is a joke. I started playing Streets of Rage 2 with Reggie and he fell asleep because it sucked so bad lol
Yeah I wonder if they fixed that one yet.
Its a good collection but I wish it had street fighters, and Aladdin and mortal combats those were the go to,Games for me lol
I agree with you. The PC version has mods that you can add those games into it. Thanks for watching and giving us a chance its extremely hard to get noticed on RUclips.
Abysmal input lag makes most all the games UNPLAYABLE = deal breaker.
Online is the worst. the other games are not so bad but I will always play a different version of revenge of Shinobi
Ive got the game on PS4 my favorite is sonic!
You cant go wrong with Sonic
There is not full screen option?
I believe full screen is still 4:3 im not sure because this review was so long ago.
After sonic 3 and knuckles console update then I'll get it
Just to comment myself to say it will and must happen
It would be awesome.
Yes I wanna get it but the lack of sonic 3 and knuckles is a deal breaker for me
@@Bdanny234 wait, this doesn't have sonic 3 & knuckles? I still might get it but why though?
Michael Relaford No and i believe it’s because of the music
I owned Sega collection on PSP,ps2,ps3. Now I have to get on ps4. They need a second collection now.
Then you have to get the new Sega Genesis mini coming out.
i just dont see the point when there are so many good emulators these days.
True theres plenty of ways to play now days.
I would add Ecco the dolphin, world of illusion, and why not Tazmania ??
Tazmania would have been a dream come true.
do streets of rage games run good?
it runs good
I would like to see mickey e Donald world of illusion, and of course, castle of illusion
I know right?
IT IS ALSO ON THE NINTENDO SWITCH.
Yeah retro on the go!
Too bad Wonder Boy is missing from the Switch port though... }:-/>
I'm not getting any notifications from you guys, no matter how hard I hit that bell.
I'm sorry, Gui, I wish there was something we could do about that but RUclips just doesn't want us to grow sadly. We appreciate your support when you are able to give it.
I've heard there's some stuttering in the emulation, even in single player. Is that true?
I think it depends on the game but most of them play and feel great. Sorry it took me so long to get tothis. Some times comment fall through the cracks Thanks for watching. Its hard to get any kind of tracking on this platform without a 100k plus subscribers.
I really wanted to play sonic 3&k
We all did.
@@mediaglitch Yeah It Sucks
No Sonic 3 & Knuckles IS A DEAL BREAKER!
yeah sad they didnt put it on there.
There's no Ecco on the switch version? Wtf
Crazy to leave out suck a popular Sega title.
The Ecco games are only on the Steam version apparently?
The lag is terrible, even I noticed it and I don't normally notice stuff like that
I feel like there is always lag with these collections but the lag on Revenege of shinobi makes it unplayable
Imput lag and absence of pixel perfect scaling are very irritating for me.
I totally understand. I long for a day where we get emulation right and we are playing the classics just like we did back then but on modern hardware.
Ikr input lag especially playing sonic the hedgehog his jumps and the way you move him feels a little off.
When I put Alex the kid on I was not happy,
Whys that? Did you not like that one?
can you play without ps4 vr
That's a good question, I have never heard that you could but they set it up so it would feel like you could. Thanks for watching it's hard to get traction on youtube without having 100k subs.
pc has mods and vr
Yeah a buddy of mine showed me this the other day and he even made a mod for me so I could play Mystic Defender. It was pretty awesome.
@@mediaglitch Im in love with sonic mania style, cause sonic gets an instant boost atack, so cool, also you can play with chars form the animate atm cartoon, like the squirrel princess or the mecha bunny
@@hansnystrompastor8690 Nice Ill have to dive deeper into these mods for sure. Thanks for the heads up.
0:32 Who are those two girls? Does anyone here know?
I do and I would tell you but you just told me Shinobi 3 is better then Revenge.
People can have opinions. Lol, grow up.
This list was a deal breaker! Only game i thought was good was shadow dancer and golden axe revenge of shinobi and golden axe the rest of the list horrid! They left out a ton of great games!
They sure did.
On my Xbox One the intro slows done for like 30 seconds. Very irritating. I may uninstall it and reinstall it when i get the time. Otherwise, i still find owning the real ones and playing through a CRT a vastly superior experience. Takes time, place and money but worth it. Im thinking stopping buying these compilations.
I agree with you on that.
Sonic 3 had music from Michael jackson. That's why that didnt make the cut
That makes since. I was wondering why it wasnt on this collection.
Stephen Csoma yet the pc version of this collection has sonic 3...
@@jakighcolburnchannel3584 Not sure if you know this but something cool about the PC version is there is a way to add any genesis game to it.
No Ecco or sonic 3 sonic and knuckles or batman and Robin or moonwalker
Yeah all of those would have been great games to have on the collection
I hate how there is no sonic 3 I also hate the online lag the last thing I hate no arcade sega games as at least unlockables.
yeah I prefer the genesis collection on the PS3 or 360 more
And a limited selection of different games than other collections
in the eu you can buy it now for 6 eu in the ps shop instead of 30 eu
SOunds like a deal
Wtf! Super Thunder Blade is awesome! And Shinobi 3 is better than Revenge.
😡
No dude, Revenge is classic and is superior to 3 in every way (though just marginally so, mind you)...
I agree Shinobi 3 is better than Revenge but both are good
Many great games are not in this collection: Road Rash, Ex-Ranza, Thunder Force, Earthworm Jim
I agree
Its more better sega have to produce old game into 3d with nice graphic and and sound in x box or Playstation
true that
too many stinkers, wheres castle of illusion, aladdin, earthworm jim, outrun after burner????nobody wants flickies, gain ground, bonanza bros, crackdown, rubbish. why not just make the 360 ps3 version backwards compat... no they want us to buy them again just like these remasters.
I agree the ps3 one was better. And i, with you, share a hatred for Flicky or what ever that dumb game is called.
No sonic 3. Dissapoonting. Thankfully you can buy this on xbox 360 backwards combatibility for five bucks
I would say that the 360 version is the best version of all thee games. Thanks for watching and giving us a shot. It's so hard to get views on RUclips unless you have over 100k subscribers so thanks for taking the time.
@@mediaglitch your welcome. Your content looks pretty cool so I'll sub K?
@@mediaglitch also I 100 percent agree
@@decayedphoenix8865 hey thanks I appreciate it.
@@mediaglitch your welcome
Send me a copy of it so I can have it and play it with you sometimes as well. Nah j/k :P. I will get it at some point when able.
Im not playing this thing online to much.
It's all good I don't play anything much online with anyone. I prefer local co-op like with consoles before the Xbox and online gaming became a thing.
Where is dumb shit like towel jam and earl and told him another part two and more cool shit like Should Nobe I like a few sports games Al-Sahlawi NBA jams what shoes light up
I agree with you that they dropped the ball on some titles that desperately needed to be in here.
too bad about the online.
agree but still worth a buy
.. Wouldnt even play it/get. It for. Free... Play in the original system.. Not no ps4.. Was looking to buy it.. But.. Nooo..
I totally understand. Thanks for watching and giving us a shot. It's so hard to get views on RUclips unless you have over 100k subscribers so thanks for taking the time.
I own the original system with my personal favorite games, but these collections are fun for the convenience, the extra features, and to check out popular titles that I may have missed out on buying.
