    If you love old school games you will love these saga genesis games. For myself: I love altered beast.

    This is the most well put together set of retro games to date, and the joy of taking it anywhere on Switch is just icing on the cake.

    This is a good collection of genesis games, some are missing like Sonic 3 (unfortunately), and there is some input lag when playing. Other than that it’s pretty good.

    Can’t beat getting 50+ games for one low price. There are some real gems and also a few stinkers, but overall well worth the price

    I grew with a Sega Genesis and this collection feels very worth the price. The Phantasy Star games alone are worth admission.
