Designed by an R&D team supervised by Hideki Sato and Masami Ishikawa, the Genesis was adapted from Sega's System 16 arcade board, centered on a Motorola 68000 processor as the CPU, a Zilog Z80 as a sound controller, and a video system supporting hardware sprites, tiles, and scrolling. It plays a library of more than 900 games on ROM-based cartridges.

* Thunder Force IV
* MUSHA
* Mega Turrican
I second Gun Star Heroes and Streets of Rage.
Now, can someone please explain me what we are doing?

Awesome picks! I second all three. Every game that gets nominated + seconded is put into the mix. One of these games gets picked by random. We all then play and discuss that game. It's a great way of discovering new games and to talk to others about games we really like.

A hidden gem that people still seem to miss. In my opinion, the best game Data East has ever made:
Atomic Runner.
One of the best shoot em ups on the platform, only released in Japan:
Battle Mania 2
I second Rocket Knight Aventures, Gunstar Heroes and Contra Hard Corps. These are some of my favorites!

I'll make sure to check out Atomic Runner. And I agree that Battle Mania 2 is awesome!

Sorry to say, but the nomination period is already over and the random game picked. Chakan The Forever Man was the game, and there's a post for it
here. We do have an open nomination period for the Capcom arcade CPS systems though. Please
come make your picks!
