Im very excited. I actually won a bid on 6 games first, then went looking for a console. Snagged a 1601 "graphics text" model.

I've always wanted a genesis, its one of the few systems I've never owned. What are some of your favorite games?

Also, mine is coming with a phaser gun, which ill probably sell. Or should I keep it?

Can't wait to hook this bad boy up to my Sharp CRT ;)

Rocket Knight Adventures - A mascot action/platformer featuring an opossum knight with a jetpack. The artwork and soundtrack are gorgeous, and the rocket charge attacks feel awesome. The bosses are all extremely creative and often have multiple stages, including, an evil train, a water snake that you fight while jumping between the foreground and background, a giant crab, a gradius style spaceship battle, and an epic rock-em-sock-em robot battle in giant mechs.
