Yep, just more and MORE unfounded hate (in the form of uncontrollable crying and screaming) for Sega coming from all the Nintendo fanboys again... 🙄 Simply just because the Genny is the 'PREFERRED' tried-and-true 16-bit platform to develop homebrews and ports on, and also because it's getting a few more extra new game titles added to its ever-growing library! 😛
Dungeons & Dragons Warriors of the Eternal Sun was released in 1992 because I have the boxed with manual game in my collection. It's a big game to wade through and takes some getting in to.
That's my favorite RPG on the system. I had so much fun playing through and beating D&D: Warriors Of The Eternal Sun. More people need to discover this game!
D&D warriors of the eternal sun was not unreleased, i used to own a cartridge copy of the game for my Genesis back in the day. It still is one of my favorite Sega Genesis games to this day. It was pretty tough depending on the character class combination you decided to go with, and then re-rolling the dice to try and get the stats you needed for the type of characters in your party(warrior, priest, mage, thief, elf, halfling, dwarf) could take forever, but could make your playthrough much easier instead of relying on the crappy base stats the game chooses for you. Anyways the game was definitely released for the Sega Genesis cuz I owned a copy of it.

Didn't take long to come to my attention a few of these WERE released in the US. Not sure why they were in my 'prototypes' folder (unlike games in my beta or early versions folder) but here we are. Thanks anyone who corrects me!
Congo was popular because it was the mid 90s and we were still in love with Michael Crichton novels made into movies. Sadly, while Congo and Sphere were good, they weren't Jurassic Park good.

A few of those games were Amiga games originally if you did want to play the full versions (Beast ball, Bills Tomato Game, Danny Sullivan Indy Heat) There was a lot of cross-pollenation between Amiga and Genesis since they shared the 68000 CPU, porting was significantly easier
Danny Sullivan's Indy Heat was an arcade game from Leland Corporation (later bought up by Midway) before it was on Amiga although it's certainly plausible that the Genesis version could've been based on the Amiga port.

Dude, I cannot tell you how many hours I put into Might and Magic 2 on the Genesis. I would've killed to have the 3rd installment to play back in the day. Absolutely loved those games and even now I feel like they still hold up. At least if you have a certain old school sensibility.

Congo looks great! Would be so cool if a printer could make a Genesis cart and sell a batch of them in official-looking packaging, as if it did release.
Man, talk about nostalgia...I remember being a young kid watching the 1988 Streamline dub of Akira and recognizing that the voice of Kanada was the same voice as the guy who also voiced Leonardo from the TMNT cartoon.
on flashpoint's '2 players one well' mode, I know TENGEN Tetris on NES had that as a mode already! man they really tried to make Tetris a thing on the Genesis, huh? also I still think the AKIRA game would've been cool.
I have a Raspberry Pi-based console in the breakroom at work. I forget where I heard about it, but when I learned of a Jesse Ventura wrestling game, I promptly installed it onto the console and beat it during my lunch break.
If there's one place I never thought I'd see come up in a wild YT video EVER in my entire life, it's Burley, ID. I have family over in Oakley, and my mom was born in Burley, because Oakley had no hospital at the time. (Also, shoutouts from Boise)
Time Trax, the old TV show, was going to be converted to the Genesis from the SNES too. They released the ROM a little while ago. It’s perfectly playable, and is arguably better than the SNES one due to the music.
I remember reading about the Jesse Ventura game and how it could have been the first time a Fire Pro game came out west had it followed through. It was actually the Mega Drive off-shoot called "Thunder Pro Wrestling Retsuden".
I wish they'd released that Ninja Gaiden beat em up, or some modern dev could finish it. I don't think it would have fared well back in the day being compared to the NES games, but those weren't anywhere close to arcade-accurate. Even in this rough demo form, it's still pretty fun to play.
Like many other people have stated, Warriors of the Eternal Sun had a North American release. I love it, i think it's extremely ambitious for a console CRPG for the time and incorporates a lot of CRPG features that i wouldn't have expected to work on a console release at the time. On the downside though, that overworld music is a three second loop that makes my ears bleed after enough time.
Minor (but interesting) technical correction: teleplay functionality was built in to the model 1 Genesis _at launch,_ and just a few games made use of it in Japan ("Tel Tel Baseball"... guess what "Tel" abbreviates?). Honestly, I think Sega should have never spent their resources on that strategy at all... but getting rid of this functionality was one of the (cost saving) reasons for the model 2.
Beastball is straight up Brutal Sports Football from the Amiga 1200, I loved that game back in the day. And that Barbie game did have it's released cancelled but I definitely remember it being put on SEGA Channel as an "exclusive." Because my friend and I would sit there and try everything when I was a subscriber to it, there was no reason not to try the stinkers even just for a laugh, and even today I can't forget that freakish clown face on the map screen in that game.
Yakima not a level? That's too bad; they could have played in the Sun Dome. Is that still standing? I know they had an arena football team on account that I saw them play the Venom
Warriors of the eternal sun did come out in 92. I love these kinds of games, but boy was it a stinker. I'll have to check out your book about cereal, you got me thinking of my two favorites from back in the day : Donkey Kong cereal and Mr. T cereal. Anything with Mr. T always kicked ass
Warriors of the Eternal Sun is great, if you're a D&D fan and understand the creatures and the rule sets. I absolutely loved playing through and beating that game!
I've done a video on Dominus as it had a full release for DOS computers. It's a really unusual sort of strategy game with a massive number of systems in place like commanding generals to deploy armies, mutating units together to make brand new kinds of units, interrogating captured enemy soldiers, casting a ridiculous number of spells, or even going into the field of battle and fighting as your own overpowered avatar in action sequences. If you're OK with it I can post a link to my video. :B
Hello, I recently saw your legend of doom/ legend of Zelda nes vr video and was wondering if you remember how to switch to use bombs? I was inspired to try it out from your video but am stuck in level 2 due to the bomb issue I’m playing on quest 2 btw
Mr Riggs is it possible to buy any of the items you sell internationally? I live in Australia and would love to purchase something to support the channel, but I’m not sure about international shipping. Cheers
Dungeons & Dragons: Warriors Of The Eternal Sun is by far my favorite RPG on the Sega Genesis. If youre a D&D fan, and know the rules, its an insanely fun playthrough, especially the fps dungeon levels!
Hard agree. Unfortunately the worst part of the game is the overworld music track that you'll be listening to for 80% of your playthrough. It's nothing short of amazing though considering the complexity of CRPGs at the time and successfully bringing that experience mostly intact to a home console.
@@majestyzx9081 Yeah, I used to play my own music while grinding up levels, which you really need to do a LOT in that game, but I had so much fun doing it.
one of my faves for sure, as a kid i didnt have a clue how to play but as an adult i can do good, definitely need a guide if i want to complete it though.
It seems a lot like Shadowrun to me, in that the up-front front difficulty curve is ludicrously high. Once you figure out how to play the game on its terms it opens up nicely.
Those wouldn't be homebrew, those would be reproductions. Homebrews are newly made content like Battle Kid 1&2 on the NES, or Pier Solar for the Genesis/Dreamcast.
Akira would've taken the Genesis to another level if it was a console exclusive! I can only imagine being able to stunt on Super Nintendo friends with my Sega Akira game back in those days, lol!
Huh? Warriors of the eternal Sun absolutely came out. My father got me that game and he went all over looking for it. He brought it home one night and I played the thing all the time. I mean all the time. I beat it and the final boss was a Trex inside of a cave.
Dungeons & Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun did come out mid '92 - it was exclusive on the Genesis. true , it's nowhere near Final Fantasy or Phantasy Star
Completely different game than Final Fantasy or Phantasy Star. It successfully ported over a ton of CRPG features at the time onto a console which a lot of people probably thought near impossible to do due to the lack of inputs on video game controllers at the time. Think it made an amazing design choice in combining traits of both CRPGs and TRPGs at the time and influenced future TRPGs like Arc The Lad and eventually the modern iterations of X-Com. It's not a kind game to anybody going in blind and requires at least a passing knowledge of AD&D at the time, but that was common among CRPG releases.
I'll have to check out beyond Zero Tolerance love the original. Really interesting list. Hope you can make it Southeast game exchange this year. My favorite convention.

Yes, i have the game. It´s a good shooter.

Sphere and Congo are hidden gems these days.
Congo wasn’t actually popular but they hyped the hell out of it. I remember a Taco Bell tie-in and even a line of action figures from Kenner.

I think Congo got overhyped by being based on another book by the author Jurassic Park while the Jurassic Park mania was still pretty fresh.
I've played most of these via emulation for many years and had no idea they were never officially released.
I really hope someone works on finishing the Genny version of Lufia & the Fortress of Doom. Would love to see it in action.
idk why, it would be the same as the SNES Version no doubt.

Huh? Warriors of the eternal Sun absolutely came out. My father got me that game and he went all over looking for it. He brought it home one night and I played the thing all the time. I mean all the time. I beat it and the final boss was a Trex inside of a cave.
Dick Dastardly and Muttley from Wacky Races !?!?! It's not fair! There's still time to correct this injustice !
I think you forgot TIME TRAX It came out for SNES but the Genesis one never was relaesed!
Finally, a game that lets you go to Centralia, and not just morally.
Congo followed Jurassic Park. Studios tried to make everything out of Michael Crichton
Dungeons & Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun
did come out mid '92 - it was exclusive on the Genesis.
true , it's nowhere near Final Fantasy or Phantasy Star
Completely different game than Final Fantasy or Phantasy Star.
It successfully ported over a ton of CRPG features at the time onto a console which a lot of people probably thought near impossible to do due to the lack of inputs on video game controllers at the time.
Think it made an amazing design choice in combining traits of both CRPGs and TRPGs at the time and influenced future TRPGs like Arc The Lad and eventually the modern iterations of X-Com.
It's not a kind game to anybody going in blind and requires at least a passing knowledge of AD&D at the time, but that was common among CRPG releases.
I enjoyed it more than Phantasy Star, but I'm also a big D&D nerd. They adapted the monsters and enemies perfectly out of the rule book.
That rally game looks a lot like Combat Cars. Maybe it's an early version of that game? Indy Heat came out on the NES. Fun game, but pretty easy
I believe the Tengen version of Tetris on NES had 2 player on the same field.
Im pretty sure that congo did so well in the cinema was due to it being written michael Crichton AKA mr jurassic park
I'll have to check out beyond Zero Tolerance love the original. Really interesting list.
Hope you can make it Southeast game exchange this year. My favorite convention.
I could have sworn some of these games actually came out.
