What are your most wanted or top ten wanted Sega Genesis games
« on: February 11, 2023, 05:39:53 pm »
Recently I decided to concentrate on collecting for the Sega Genesis and realized that I waited way too long to start.
Most of them are really expensive now, whenever I find one I'm kicking myself for not getting it years ago for half the price or more. Anyways I was wondering what are your top ten or most wanted Genesis games. Here are mine

1.Punisher
2.Truxton
3.Sparkster
4.Growl
5.Grind Stormer
6.Chiki Chiki Boys
7.Air Busters
8.Arcus Odyssey
9.Sagaia
10.Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel

I've been focusing a bit on Sega lately myself. Always was more of a Nintendo/PlayStation guy back then, so I only really paid attention to the big Sega exclusives for a long time. I was lucky enough to get my #1 and #2 Genesis games recently (The Punisher & Thunder Force III).

My top 10:
1. Elemental Master
2. Phelios
3. Sol-Deace
4. Gaiares
5. Whip Rush
6. Fireshark
7. Mega Turrican
8. The Adventures of Batman & Robin
9. The Pirates of Dark Water
10. Road Rash

At the moment- I only have 7 Genesis games on my wishlist.  I've done pretty good at tracking down all the Genesis games I've wanted in the past few years.  I may add more in the future.  No particular order on any of these.

Crusader of Centy
Grind Stormer
Hook
M.U.S.H.A.: Metallic Uniframe Super Hybrid Armor
Onslaught
Punisher, The
Skeleton Krew

I also need a few from your list as well but they didn't make my most wanted

Even so some of these are still pretty pricey I can't believe how expensive cib genesis games have shot up in price. So many games are way over what I'm comfortable paying for now.

I don't worry about CIB with Genesis. Cart only is a-okay with me. As long as I have a legitimate copy to play.

I've been hunting down CIB N64, SNES, and Genesis games for the last 3 or 4 years, so it's been at the top of my want list for a while. I actually picked up a pretty nice Sega lot from a local collector the weekend before last and scored several games that were at the top of my list. But as far as Genesis games I'm still after, here would be my Top 10.


1. Castlevania Bloodlines
2. Ranger X
3. Thunder Force III
4. Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
5. Virtual Bart
6. Jurassic Park: Rampage Edition
7. Wolf Child
8. McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure
9. Revenge of Shinobi
10. Michael Jackson's Moonwalker


What's sad is I used to have almost half of these games CIB at one time or another, but unfortunately were part of one of my mandatory purges I've done over the years. I've since wanted them back, but unfortunately they're now worth significantly more than what I paid for them or even what they were worth when I sold them 4 or 5 years ago. All well, they will be mine again and this time I plan on holding onto them forever if possible.

Aside from Castlevania Bloodlines, everything on my list would require CIB. But in general at least with Genesis/MD carts, they can be stored easily in cassette cases/racks so that is true.

Some that come to mind...

OutRun
Space Harrier 2
Lotus
Midnight Resistance
Flicky
Mystic Defender
Dino Land
Zero Tolerance
Mazin Saga
Forgotten Worlds

I've only ever casually collected Genesis over the years. You never stumble over the interesting Genesis carts. It's much like Super Nintendo collecting, the shovelware was WAY more mass produced than anything solid. You'll see tons of kid movie tie-ins, game shows, sports games and Sonic 2, but the above listed? I've rarely sighted any of them in nearly 15 years of looking through stacks of Genesis carts. There's a lot of games you just never find while hunting, and I've never gone to eBay for Genesis stuff.

Don't know if can get a Top10 together, but I'll try ... I mostly focus on RPG's when collecting. As I collect PAL-Games, the following are quite expensive and rare:

1. Phantasy Star IV
2. Shining Force II
3. Light Crusader
4. Shining Force CD (insanely rare and expensive in europe!!!)
5. Turtles Hyperstone Heist
6. Castlevania Bloodlines (only the packaging for I already own the cartridge)
7. Sonic 3
8. Sonic & Knuckles
9. Street Racer
10. PowerMonger CD

Year’s ago I saw many of all of those games except for Dino Land I have never seen that one in all my years of collecting. But it’s has been years since I’ve seen any of those other games now. Like you it’s mostly Sonic and sports and other games nobody wants like Greendog!

I have most of my top 10 Genesis games.
The one I haven’t found is Mutant League Hockey. I’ll get it eventually.
I’m still looking for Moonwalker. Punisher will have to be a stroke of luck.

1) Castlevania Bloodlines
2) Contra Hard Corp
3) Rocket Knight Adventures
4) Sparkster
5) Mutant League Football
6) TMNT Hyperstone Heist
7) Major Chaos
8) Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker
9) Batman and Robin
10) The Punisher (I’m hoping I find it in the wild)
