Question for people who ever owned a Sega Genesis
    #5226241 -

Were any of you as lucky as I was to have The Sega Channel?

It was so great back in the day.

There was an adapter you put into your Sega and it hooked up to the cable outlet. We got access to 25 (or was it 50?) games every 2 weeks and they changed them out after the two week period with 50 other games.

I spent hours upon hours of my life as a child playing tons of Sega games. Ah those were the good ol' days. They ended the service once the N64 and Playstation came out.

I was just wondering if The Sega Channel was a local thing or if it was more wide spread.

So how bout it?  :smile:

I got it. I was a Sega nut.

Its where I learned about Virtua Racing and Bomberman. Two revolutionary games. Way ahead of their times.

I had everything. Sega CD, 32X, and eventually got the Saturn and Dreamcast. Still play DC occasionaly.

I still beleive that Genesis was the more "adult" of the two big systems back then. SNES seemed to always have the lame kiddy games. While Sega was pumping out all the cool "rated M for Mature" games.

i wanted the sega channel, but parents wouldn't let me get it.
they thought just having a game system was bad enough.

genesis was the best system ever. i've got a ps2 downstairs right now, but i've only turned it on once in the last 5 months. why? because i've got a genesis emulator on my computer and would rather play those games.

yeah, we got the Sega channel for a short period of time until they ended it. it was really cool, technologically ahead of its time since the internet, and hence access to game databases like this, had not even begun to be of interest to most people at that time. it was probably, what, 1992?

those were the days. i remember playing bomberman for hours and hours.

Same here, the only OK one was the Star Wars game. It had pretty good graphics and full motion video. Problem was, my mom's co-worker's husband was a computer genious and had all the toys. He had the exact same game, but for computer, and it looked a million times better on computer, as is usually the case, even these days. From then on, my alliegence was to computers, even though, like I mentioned previously, I still bought the Saturn, which had some ok games. Like Panzer Dragoon.

My best friend had it for the short time it was around. That thing was aaaaaawwwweeeesssssoooommmeee. The only thing that sucked was the games would change every now and then. I still think toe jam and earl is one of the best games ever created EVER! I'm gonna get me a sega towards the beginning of summer just to play that game. Toejam and earl 2 sucks ass though

I still have my original genesis and one original controller.  :smile:  Button B rarely works and when it does, you have to pretty much mash the hell out of it to get it to work.  It also has a 3 foot cord.  Which absolutley sucks.  And I also own the orginal Road Rash 3 that I bought after giving hockey lessons to the neighborhood kids, even though they were older than me.  Hahaha.

This is the first I've heard of the Sega Channel although I did have a Genesis.

Also, I think it's safe to say that the Dreamcast eclipses all consoles.

Streets of rage! I spent countless days and weeks of my youth playing those games. Another top five contender. Another is Golden axe. I used to be the little old guy with an axe. Bad ass
