Gamepass is just Sega Channel from Sega Genesis. I was always team Sega. I had the Genesis, Dreamcast, Game Gear, and Genesis. I wanted Sega CD. All of their systems were great but lacked gaming bad after Genesis.


Wait. Sega had a whole wxpanded universe?! I mean yeah the Dreamcast & we had the genesis and game gear… I didn’t know they were stacked up like that

Yup. Look it up. Sega Channel. Streaming gaming over a cable modem cartridge hooked to your Genesis. Theres an entire library of Sega Genesis games that was never commercially released. Just downloaded and "streamed" off the Sega Channel. If you love 16 bit gaming and you aint never played Alien Soldier before, do yourself a favor and just emulate the shyt right now. These nikkas was doing this shyt in 1994. Tellin you Sega, throughout their entire history as a hardware manufacturer, killed the game. Almost everything thing we take for granted now, they was doing it as early as 30 years ago. We are just now catching up to their vision of what gaming systems can be and do.

I wish I knew why so many people keep saying Neo Geo. It was one of the greatest and longest running gaming platforms ever. It had released throughout the 90s, all up until 2004. In fact it outlived the Genesis and SNES with game releases being the 2D powerhouse it was. There are tons of Neo Geo cabinets still out there. When arcades started shutting down and places began phasing out traditional joystick-and-pushbutton arcade machines for the "Raw Thrills" deluxe light gun and driving games and shyt like that, I remember Neo Geo cabs being one of the few traditional units besides the Capcom-Marvel mashup fighters to stick around for a long time.

Im waiting for the day someone finally releases a competent commercial portable Neo Geo emulator with accurate sounds, colors, inputs, and library. Having Metal Slug 1-5 on the go alone is worth every penny. Neo Geo kicked ass.

Man y'all nikkas had the goat gaming experience. I ain't even know all that shyt had online play and html browsers. BBS servers:wow:


Its just live that all that was there back then but if you didn't grow up back then, you would've thought nikkas was just playing single player/story games and had to be in one room to play together. Not that there's anything wrong with that
