This is my original Genesis I bought in like '92(?) with one of my first paychecks from my first job at Chuck E. Cheese's (yes I'm fucking old).
I thought I sold it years ago but found out it was sitting in one of my mom's closets, so I bought a few cheap carts and hooked it up to a crt I keep around for just such occasions. It still works!
I am so goddamn happy, I just had to share and I figured you all might appreciate that.
What rubbish. What balderdash.
I wasn't really used to jrpg's at the time and didn't realize what I was getting myself into lol. I didn't finish Phantasy Star II, either, even though I loved it.
I was making a reference. I never played the Sega CD version myself, but I did have the PC version growing up. Never got too far in that one, either, though.
Ha! Oh shit, that's amazing! I haven't touched the game since the mid nineties, so I don't remember many details.
For some reason, I distinctly remember a guy who flipped a coin along his fingers because I thought it looked cool so learned how to do that trick.
Anyways, thanks for sharing that.
