Oh my god. You just made my day by asking that question. Here goes my fingers...type myself to sleep, heh!
The controller for the system Your controller looks like this; its got a kinda dimple on the part facing you in the middle. You have a wierd shaped skinny button on the top right; that there is your start/pause button. Then you have your d-pad on the left, of course- and your A, B, and C buttons on the right. the system itself: Early systems, known as genisus 1 systems, had a headphone jack and volume control on it. It also had a wierd little switch to turn the system on that I found to be a bit finicky. I have a hard time turning mine on, anyway! The second system lacked the volume control and headphone jack, and its also a lot smaller. But I stil love my v1 system due to the fact the sega cd can mount directly underneeth it. More on that later. the third system was sould by, uh, I can't remember. It was very slimmed down- some games had a hard time running on it, and it didn't work at all with any of the add on consoles, like the sega cd. The add ons for the console Well, the first genisus saw the add on of the sega cd; cd's were much more cost efficient, and in its day the sega cd could play FMV (full motion video) flawlessly. However that's not our main concern; my concern is the fact the system could play cd quolity music! raaaa! Also the voices were amped up a bit; but at a steep 400 bucks, the system didn't see much popularity. Now, however, along with the genisus, this system packs a pretty mean punch- or at least, it does for me. the first sega cd system was mounted directly under the genisus. It featured a front loading drive, similar to those found on a cd rom drive of your modern PC. The reset button on the genisus was its eject button, enabling the front cd drive to pop out (way cool!) The second one was a top loading system, similar to your boomb box. It sat beside the genisus, however I find it a bit less sturdy than the first unit. Compatibility: Well, I think the first sega cd only works on the first genisus, which sucks; but the second sega cd will work with the first genisus. I love both these systems, and I own both models of each. games mortal kombat 3: While the menus don't speak, I just have to love that there music, don't you? Also, the "you win" and "fight" speech is wayyyy coool! I love nightwolf- my favorite MK character of all time! Live long nightwolf! Streets of rage: another of namcos (?) great games, streets of rage 1 and 2 spanned over the genisuses lifetime. They were great all around, with not to bad sound effects, and I somewhat know what I'm doing on it. I used to be able to get all the way to level 8 or so, but its been a while. Btw, its really great on the console itself- emulators, I find, slow it down just a tad. another great game that I enjoyed was outrunners 2019. I don't know why. It was, well, somewhat accessible- but not all that much. But, in terms of accessibility, there are a lot of FAQS for the mortal kombat games that helped me. Also for streets of rage, you'll know when you hit someone. Also golden axe rocks. Not sure why- but its somewhat (keep in mind I keep saying somewhat!) accessible. BUt once again, FAQS on gamefaqs.com should help that. They helped for me. Have a good day from Tyler C.
