Sonic 3 & Knuckles
Sonic 2 Mortal Kombat Phantasy Star IV since there's no limit on Sonic games then really it's both 2 and 3&K. 2 was the breakout game and 3&K ended being able to add someone entirely new who people had wanted in a unique way that he became a star of the series on his own. MK and Phantasy Star 4 are kinda tossups. ultimately went with Mortal Kombat over others like Ecco because it was part of the big push that made Sega "cool" and "mature" because it had red blood as opposed to the green blood seen on Nintendo. sure Nintendo ended up fixing this by MK2 but that was a big deal at the time, even if Sega ultimately squandered this advantage. Phantasy Star 4 is uh... kinda just a favorite that i feel initially would've never belonged on this list but over time it became clear to being one of the best games on the system and is heavily respected. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. ...

I wish I didn't ask this on page 6 but do CD and 32x games count?
Since you know, they all attach to the Genesis and can't work without it. Edit - I got to the discussion <_< At this point IMO they should have their own Rushmore (or maybe a combined rushmore....or maybe a "Complete Tower of Power" Rushmore). Especially since we are on page 6 and that's 5 pages of votes not thinking about it. --- I'd Rather Be A Savage Little Elephant, than be a big Bald Bull "I claim one line in your sig" = TheKnightOfNee ...

CD and 32X counting makes sense but there also isn't much to offer from both of them. like Sonic CD is going to be less relevant than 2 or 3&K or any other high profile genesis game.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Mortal Kombat Phantasy Star IV Gunstar Heroes The thing that tips it to Sonic 2 rather than 1 or 3&K is the marketing push. It's one of the first games to ever receive a huge amount of hype leading up to release, and it got a simultaneous release all across the western markets, which was basically unheard of. "Sonic 2sday" is a real forerunner of the way modern games are hyped up and released. In general though, the Genesis has one of the least uniform libraries out there. So many of the games in contention here - Ecco, Golden Axe, Altered Beast, Madden, Vectorman - were significant in their time but had extremely short legacies (or in the case of Madden, an extremely long one that almost immediately ceased to be associated with the Genesis or Sega). It's strange trying to put together a list of the most important titles when there were so few that felt universal to system owners. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'd say the Genesis getting the version with blood over the Super Nintendo added to the appeal that it was the cooler system, so I'd say it's a worthy inclusion. I've been thinking about adding it to my own list.

I mean lets be completely honest here despite some of the narrative around it at the time the Wii had a much more crowded field. Large parts of the Genesis/Mega Drives library are totally forgotten.

I don't even think it's a hot take to say PS4 was better than FF6 these days.
Retrospective reviews have been very positive, with praise for the gameplay, story and visuals. In RPGamer, Sephirstein praised the title as one of the greatest RPGs he had ever played, with "magnificent graphics, sensational soundtrack, gripping story and incredible battle system".[21] Parn of RPGFan also called it one of "the best RPGs ever made".[22] Reviews for the Virtual Console release were also very positive. Nintendo Life's Corbie Dillard said that one could not have asked for a better end to the 16-bit series.[20] IGN called it one of the definitive 16-bit role-playing games, stating the "storyline and characters are deep and engaging", the "attractive anime-style cutscenes steal the show visually", and the gameplay is both "classic and unique at the same time".[18] Tor.com described it as "an ambitious JRPG that is the perfect end to the series, taking the best elements of each of the previous games and weaving together a 'phantastic' journey."[26] Eurogamer stated that it is "epic in scope" and recommended that "anyone with a fondness for JRPGs should investigate this at once".[15] --- If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus ...

Definitely agree Sonic 1 shouldn't be on it
Feels like Sonic 1 is more like a retrospective inclusion.

Agreed. Sonic 1 gets "started the series" cred but is really rough while Sonic 2 is where it rightfully blew up. It's like OG Mega Man in that way.

Sonic 2
Mortal Kombat Phantasy Star IV Ecco the Dolphin I feel at peace with this. The two I'd be most confident about would be Sonic 2 (duh) and Mortal Kombat. I feel like nothing represents the contrast between Nintendo and Sega during the 32-bit era more than those two. You could know basically nothing about the Genesis, and you'd still know it had the Real MK experience. It cannot be understated how important that was at the time. Bring back Ecco the Dolphin, Sega.
