What a refreshing thing to read.8 1/2 wrote:It's true. I was huge SNES kid when the war was going on, but in the last three or four years it's become clear to me that the Genesis was THE system of that era. SNES had the colors and the RPG's but Genesis was the hardcore kids system of choice then and now. If it came down to it, you could melt my SNES collection to a puddle if it meant keeping even a few of my Genesis games.tehkao wrote:What I like about that site is that after reading it, you realize how much of a joke the "Genesis vs SNES" wars really was. It's so obvious that the Genesis absolutely raped the SNES in almost every possible genre, except MAYBE RPGs.
I'm just going to drop this link in this thread, since I've been thinking of sharing it for awhile. This was my favorite 'net secret store when I was buying back Genesis games I had sold and wanted them mint (these are genuinely brand new). Many games are now gone (they used to have Burning Force at $15, TF3, Warsong, etc.) and prices have gone up, but there's still a few pretty good deals to be had here and still about 150 games:

A number of shooters there, a few pretty good deals. Some outrageous ones too, but I figure if people are willing to pay $30 for stuff downsized for the GBA...
