Genesis makes for a fine MOBA experience on the PS4, where the genre is starved, but it never quite shakes the feeling of being easy League of Legends
"Earthworm Jim is weird, its levels are totally random, and why do you play as an earthworm in a spacesuit anyway? Well, let's get to it." - Alex Legard from Video Chums
Earthworm Jim was outstanding. I have fond memories playing on my genesis fighting that crow bad guy.
Retro publisher Incube8 and game developer 7FH is releasing a brand-new game for the OG Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance.
44 bucks is asking a bit too much for me. I'd love to see more indie GB/GBA games be made, as well as just more new games being made for retro consoles. Feel like there's a whole market there with untapped potential. Just needa keep prices at somewhere reasonable.
Not when PC elite just pirate everything. People still play retro games, they just don’t care to support it properly. Mini consoles came out and sold well, but all I heard is why buy this when I have hundreds of roms that run better than real thing? People don’t get it.
Mini consoles only ever come with a handful of games and you have no choice over the selection. They're a collectors item and Nintendo, Sony, and SEGA clearly have no interest in releasing a mini console with the ability to buy more retro titles. Emulation isn't pirating, and while roms are pirating EVERYONE knows there's absolutely no money being lost on that when the vast majority of these classic libraries are unavailable legally.

Game looks fun.
I still have the original "Brick" handed down from my brother, and my Gameboy Color. I get the interest and nostalgia of it all, but that's just too much for the experience of playing a game on a Gameboy.
Cool for collectors and hardcore enthusiasts though.
I've often wondered what could be possible on old consoles with modern programming techniques. That would be something to see Genesis and SNES games being made again.
They actually kind of did that with Ion Fury. Check it out. https://store.steampowered....
Nice. I was aware of this one, and other retro games as well. Like The Last Faith looks awesome.
I was more referring to making games for old consoles. I recall reading about Need for Speed Pro Street being made for the GENESIS (Megadrive) in South America some years back!
Ion Fury would have melted PCs at the time of the Build Engine's popularity.
It's awesome how much they pushed out of that engine.
I think more people will comment on this page than will actually buy it at that price. Right now it’s sitting at 3.
"The Canada-based retro game publisher Incube8 Games and indie games developer 7FH today announced with great joy and pride that pre-orders are now live for their 8-bit Gameboy-based monochrome shoot-em-up game "Genesis" (the pre-orders will end on June 7th, 2021)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
