So many games i never heard of. I wish i could go back in time and hunt these down when i was younger
with the state of retro gaming being so expensive, i strongly suggest emulation, as you can play old games and consoles for free. just look on the internet for the "Gens" and/or "Kega Fusion" and that will provide your engine/s to enjoy all the Genesis library that you want.
unlike pirating music, pirating old retro games is fine, as long as you aint trying to monetize them, as they are licensed media, but they also fall under the category of Abandonware, in other words there are no other ways of playing a lot of these games.
@@UltimateGamerCCI 2nd this guy. Just emulate anything too expensive to collect
definitely, a lot of the highly priced games are really not that good to warrant the price tag.@@fritzthecat8158
Just get a emulation handheld and you can I did 🙏🏽
@@georged7627i emulate off my PC and im having fun being a kid again
according to this guy, every damn game is a “hidden gem”
😂 yeah there old games now 😅.
This guy said "Despite not being as popular as other considered at the time" even though Sega had 65% market share. Then goes on to list some of the most beloved, well-known, classic games of the generation and list them as under rated hidden gems. I'm surprised he didn't put Sonic 2 or Streets is Rage 2 on the list.
I have a feeling the script was AI-generated.
I had the same feeling before reading ur comment, lol.
When you've been researching the topic for years on end what do you expect? There were only so many games. I've never heard of a few of these.
Right off the bat some of the most famous and loved games are on this list. Is this your top 50 not top 50 underrated?
I thought the same thing. Like Comix Zone, Contra Hardcorps, Gunstar Heroes, Toe Jam & Earl, Landstalker... Underrated? At some point I thought he would put Sonic 2 and Streets of Rage 2 on the list.
Такое чувство, что ролик создан нейросетью. Не может человек, знакомый с играми для Sega, назвать ту же Comix Zone недооцененной игрой.
I have my Sega Genesis and a bunch of my games . Man I loved " Eternal Champions"."Streets of Rage"(I had all 3) and so many others.
Eternal Champions was FANTASTIC.
I wish that Eternal Champions would be released on NSO.
"The creators of Pulseman hit it big with a game called Pocket Monsters on the Nintendo GameBoy, but I know for a fact one day they will eventually make a Pulseman 2 on a SEGA console." - Uncle from Another World.
lol yeah, it's crazy how much Game Freak has profited from the franchise of Pokemon and yet much of Game Freak's other works have disappeared into the shadows.
This was a great video and a great list of games. Would you please do a video exactly like this one but for Sega Master System and Sega Saturn?😀👍🕹🎮
Saturn console itself is underated
Thanks a lot for the timestamps with the name of each game! You're the man!
If you're going to play X-Men, I recommend the romhack, Ultimate X-Men. It fixes a lot of the problems the original game had. X-Men 2: Clone Wars however is a much, much, better game.
I'll also add Sparkster, a criminally underrated game, Elemental Master, Battle Mania 1 and 2 (the first was released in America as Trouble Shooter) and Panorama Cotton.
Now this is my jam, lets see if there is one i havent played
Worth mentioning that Yuyu Hakusho has a 4-player mode, either 2v2 or a free-for-all brawl. The game's only "downside" is the relative lack of playable characters, considering the number of participants in the tournament alone in the anime.
X-Men 2: Clone Wars and Taz Mania were two of my favourite non-sonic games on the Genesis.
I love x men 2 so much I just bought another sega after having one 20 plus years ago just to play it lol
This dude could make ET for Atari sound like Red Dead Redemption 2.
Rd2 was shyt but boy did they sucker me in with that hype train..
People have no idea I am a Genesis owner and yes there are a lot of great titles for this😊
Great job doing this video
Great list. I love Sega
Awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it
I had The Sega Channel as a kid. I must have played all these games at one point.
same, i got my $10 a month worth and then some, absolutely underrated service.
Same not to many people know about it.i enjoy it.
Subterrania, Battle Squadron, Ranger X, The Immortal,
👍ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron
I just yelled at work seeing X-Men😅
Nightcrawler & Gambit ftw
never played some of these but damn i loved me some classic games. they were the best
The fact that we don't have 10 Gun Star Heroes sequels and remakes is proof its underated.
I was just telling a coworker about Cyborg Justice.
I liked seeing all the games, but there are several errors. Two of the glaring ones that stick out to me are the Sega Genesis version of Growl is only single player (one of the biggest complaints of the console version), and Pengo uses a top down view, not isometric. Land Stalker is isometric.
Story of Thor, Earthworm Jim and Cool Spot
over here in the US The Story of Thor went by the moniker Beyond Oasis.
It got off to a bad start right away. "The genesis was not as popular as other consoles of its day"
What other consoles? It was sega genesis vs snes. They were neck in neck. You either had one or the other. Genesis sold like what, 40 million?
A good list but the script is riddled with just made up stuff. Chuck D Head cannot use his head to access higher platforms for instance.
Also you failed to explain one of the strangest games, Bioship Palladin. Your ship does have three sizes but that’s not the thing that confuses about that game. The game is so unique because you control a reticle and move that around he screen independent of your ship. So the game is not about manoeuvring your ship to avoid billets etc but mostly stays still as you move the aimer around. Very unique.
every game he pretty much says detailed sprites, fluid animations and engaging game play.
@@Vvewa "Destinctive, intense and unforgettable". lol must be Ai.
hey what’s the game on the thumbnail to the left?
Warsong for me was most underrated megadrive game, if you like fire emblem you will love it.
Getting a very AI vibe from this script, especially since most Genesis fans know about games like Comix Zone, Toe Jam and Earl, and X-Men.
Also, the Genesis was "not as popular as other consoles at the time"?? Sure, the SNES might have inched it out in the console wars (although the SNES/Genesis battle was pretty damn close and is probably one of the most famous console wars in history), but in terms of unpopularity, consoles like the TuboGrafix 16, the Atari Jaguar, the 3DO, and the CD-I say hi.
Yup, definitely AI-generated.
TG-16 and 3DO, but the Jaguar and CD-I were absolute shit, definitely shouldnt even be spoken of.
SNES might have beaten Genesis/Megadrive in America but in the UK I believe they were more or less equally as popular.
I got some of these on my Switch.
Theirs a drinking game here. Take a drink every time he says diverse 🤣
The introductions to many games all seem the same. Key words: immersive, diverse, environments, gems, strategic. 😂
Nice video ! Sub & Big Like ! And love retro games !
Awesome thank you!
I know it's you list however, there are multiple games that I don't know how you can consider underrated. Contra & Gunstar Heros for instance, took 2 spots that maybe Haunting starring Polterguy & Beyond Oasis could have had. Especially considering Contra & Gunstar are not underrated.. other than a few instances like that good list
Okay. This list makes no sense. Gunstar Heroes "is one of the most beloved Sega Genesis titles". So why is it on a list of "underrated games"?
I checked out when he said "despite not being as popular as other consoles of the time." The Genesis was the best selling system at one point.
@@gaylordfocker7990 No, it wasn't. You are the exact same TROLLBOT pushing pro Sega misinformation on another thread.
Hey woah buddy are you transphobic or something?
Calm down bro is not that serious. 😂
Try watching his playstation videos. Nothing but greatest hits and metal Jesus hidden gems
Contra Hard Corps, Castle of Illusion, and X-Men underrated?
(Laughs in 90s language)
It's another clueless TH-cam child obviously, he probably wasn't even alive when the Mega Drive was big.
I call AI bullshit on the script. Their list of underrated NES games also comes across as AI-generated.
Best Genesis games:
General Chaos
Starflight
Any of the Road Rash games
A Haunting: Starring Polterguy
Golden Axe
Shining Force (all of them)
Phantasy Star 2 & 4
I played these games a lot before we could go online and hear everyone's opinion
Not Underrated at all, but buzzword title helps with views of course ... All these games are highly praised in the retro gaming community and most of them are in a high price .
I thought sonic 2 was gonna be on this list😅
its not underrated at all
Consoles nowadays: 1-2 platformers, 2-3 sports games, 2-3 action games, 2-3 RPGs at best and that's almost all.
Old consoles in the 90s:
Dude, there are so many games here that your mom just won't have enough money for everything. Look for friends with cartridges.
You forgot Sonic 2, Aladdin, and streets of rage 2, theyre as underated as most of the games on this list
No Kid Chameleon!?
Missing Chakan: the forever man
Barkley shut up and jam , Boogerman, vectorman, earthworm jim
"Booger! Yee-Haw!"
Megadrive/Genesis has got the better Rings of Power than amazon.
Lol true
Nice list. But was there no room for even a single sports title?
Sports?? if it "Mutant League" then it's ass. lol
they arent underrated
"Despite not being as popular as other consoles of the time"...?🙄
Maybe one console. ..the SNES and even still it did outsell the SNES 2:1 for a few years there until the end.
Both had their advantages, loved them both.
Yeah, he's obviously a clueless child, who probably wasn't even alive back then and thus, doesn't know what he's talking about. I mean the list consists of some of the all-time classics of the system, games everybody knows and loves and are far removed from being "underrated" (Honestly, i was expecting to see Sonic on there as well, definitely a totally underrated game, lol)
@@ShadowAngel-lt8nw it is a pretty average list tbf . As you said , most of these games are legit classics and 3/4 are really well known .
Lmao , at Sonic !!!🤣
I actually loaded up my retro rig last night for a run and had to page down fully as at one point the entire screen was full of sonic .
Forgot just how many there actually were ! All the modern games in the world and I still find myself hammering out the retro more . Straight legend era !!
Pretty sure the script was AI-generated, especially after watching this channel's underrated NES list that has a similar formulaic feel laced with errors.
gonna be honest here, when SEGA Genesis came out, Nintendo was still pushing the NES. which had a lot of early 16-bit enthusiasts going right for SEGA even though they was Nintendo fans. that being said when the Super Nintendo came in, that's when the console wars really took off, especially with SEGA's "Genesis Does What NintenDONT" campaign.
@@EsmeAmelia tonnes of them out there now too unfortunately. Some of the aircraft /fighter plane channels are insane 🤣
Ergh.. I feel this entire video was made by AI, from the voice-over (not sure if that was AI or just the creator reading from an AI-generated script) to the ranking of games (I feel like I've seen these games ranked exactly like this a zillion times before). Sorry for sounding harsh, but I really hope TH-cam isn't flooded with AI generated garble in the near future.
He's delusional.
I can hear the AI generated script over the monotone computer voice. Constantly repeat the same statements. Redundancy is always a sign of AI. Everything is “amazingly revolutionary”. Rings of power? Really? 😂
“Adding depth to the gameplay…🙄”
@@pwhite2966oh so much depth lol😂
I played Comix Zone! that game was the funnest game I ever played it was absolutely a joy.
Megadrive does not have Vibrant Colors. The sprites are excellent tho
....how are the xmen game, gunstar heroes, landstalker...on underrated lists? these are someone of the hightest most beloved genesis games of all time for their era. Compared to what SoR2 and Sonic The Hedgehog
7:06 ok knock off doctor doom 😂😂😂
In what univers Comics Zone, Contra, and Dune 2 is underrated game ? 🤔
Most underrated Genesis game is Pirates of Dark Water
Blast processing
Fix the video tittle to "Top 50 Most Played Sega Genesis Games!"
❤
Death Duel rules!

Many of the games on this were not underated. They were known back in the day to be good.. and the one game i feel is criminally underated is not even on your list. Very few people know just how brilliant alisia dragoon is. Its easily a top ten of all time titles on the md.
how about you specify the games that were not underrated to back up your claim. that being said Alisia Dragoon was one of the early launch titles, i doubt that she is that unknown.
I agree, not a terrible list but:
Gunstar Heroes, Mickey Mouse's World of Illusion, Comix Zone, Dynamite Headdy, ToeJam and Earl, and Ristar are all commonly discussed and appreciated for what they are. Not underrated, but exactly where they should be. I love TJ & E and Ristar but they're not exactly revolutionary now, nor were they then.
Rainbow Islands Extra wasn't even released on the Genesis. It was a japan-only Mega Drive release (I understand the Mega Drive was Japan's Genesis, but if I owned an NES I wouldn't say I have a library of Famicom games).
Flicky couldn't be underrated if it wanted to, as Sega includes it almost as often as it can anytime a compilation hits so kids born 20 years after can try it for 5 minutes before moving onto something else and likely never returning. By all means pay homage to humble beginnings and while it is certainly not a terrible game, is Flicky really underrated? While I might throw it decide on every 5 years or so and play a couple levels when I play through a Sega compilation, I assure I did not put in that disc to jam on some Flicky.
Ahh Ex Mutants. What you get when you tell your parents you want X men and they dont know any better. Still liked the game but they knew what they were doing with that title.
So you don't know that Ex-Mutants was a comic book series and one that originally started as a spoof of X-Men and other mutant comics? (It was originally supposed to be called "Young Ex-Mutant Samurai Mutants", take a guess why). It was rebooted in a more serious fashion in 1992, hence why the Mega Drive game came to be.
i appreciate that Virtual Bart is on this list, it's hard as hell and there are some things that could use some polish, but the game oozes The Simpsons and it's creative with the levels as well as their gameplay. my favorite segment is the Dodge Tomato level, where you have to try to Tomato everybody, so you're the only clean student on campus when it's time for the annual photo.
Is “Alien Soldier” just a fucking bird?
None of these games are underrated, they are all well known and well received by it's audience.
majority of these games are not underrated at all. Most are regarded as classics and are well known.
Not sure these are hidden gems. Like not even almost.
What is the name of the game at 0:26-0:30
Strider Hiryū (1989)
This game by Capcom is also available for Arcade, Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64, MS-DOS, PlayStation, Master System, X68000, PC Engine CD and ZX Spectrum.
@@KEN-1991 wuoh thanks for the reply, I will check the game
@@JohanRio
Sure, while you do, look up CP-System 1 games on the Wikipedia to see related games to Strider Hiryū.
« Despite not being as popular as other condoles at the time… «
Where the hell did you get that from?? The north american sales for the SNES and the Genesis were virtually identical while the Turbografx 16 flopped. More importantly, it got the teen and young adult gamers while Nintendo continued to go after the kiddie market which would eventually bring their downfall and exit from the gamers’ market.
He's delusional.
Trick Daddy
So all sega games looks the same. Got it.
genesis does what nintend dont
"Despite not being popular at the time..." what?! The Sega Genesis took a commanding lead in the 16-bit market in 1989. The Genesis was the number one sold 4th generation console from 1989-the middle of 1995. Nintendo won the 16-bit generation because Sega killed the Genesis in 1995 to focus on the Saturn. This left Nintendo with the only budget console on the market that was still being supported with new games. There was no time in the Genesis's life that it was unknown or unpopular.
Addendum- If you wanted to cover an unknown console you should have focused on the TG-16/TG-16 CD/Super CD ROM ROM/TurboDuo.
lol contra hardcorp hidden gems? It's a pop game, I thought Americans were smarter to know first (я думал американцы умнее узнают всё первыми, оказывается у русских многие игры были в детстве хиден гемами)
Despite not as popular as other consoles at the time? Really?
"That was the Elf Girl, she became Uncle's Stalker"
"Did someone say Landstalker?"
"NOT NOW Uncle"
- Uncle from Another World.
Landstalker was good, the isometric view can be a real pain in the ass, but it helps to make it stand out as a game and a platformer.
Streets of rage remake is best
SORR is what the first three SOR Titles were as a whole, just combined into one awesome package, even adding a Creation Engine to allow people to make their own scenarios.
Did u say sega genesis wasnt as popular as other consoles?
Who wrote this script? That is the most ridiculous thing a gaming channel has ever said it along with snes were so popular they were the only two that even mattered
He's a delusional pusher of falsities.
Most of these are straight up classics. Not underrated at all
Written narrated by AI?
Only me who get a bad taste when the word 'diverse' is used?
22:46
Take it easy with the antisemitism. 🙃
An hour long 🤷♂️
Change the title
The voiceover is so 90s crap American TV that i just can't watch this video
Are you just reading the press releases for these games mate??!! Ha ha ha haaaa!! You cheap skate!!
come on...marvel land is utter trash
46:32 Nigel? Hmm... The main character of Landstalker is Alundra the elf actually. There is even sequel to Landstalker on the PS1 called "Alundra".
Uh...everthing you said is wrong, lol.
In Landstalker you play Nigel (or any other name he has due to Translation, here in Germany it's Niels), while the wood nymph (not an elf) is actually called Friday (in germany it's Flora)
The actual Sequel is Lady Stalker on the SNES. Though that was only released in Japan in 1995.
Alundra on the other hand is more of a "spiritual" successor and Alundra is the name of the MALE ELF character that is completely unrelated to Friday and Nigel and their world. It's not even made by Climax, but actually Matrix Software though, so it's not a official sequel.
@@ShadowAngel-lt8nw to this day i was annoyed that Ladystalker was Japan only, then i found out it was finally translated.
