Kguys I found a sega genesis at a value village for 25 bucks and I was wondering what are some non sonic games that I have to play but please reply quickly:)
If you are a Castlevania fan Castlevania Bloodlines is a must have.

Has anyone here played NES games on an HD TV? How bad does it look? I think my current tube TV is dead for good, and I won't be able to find a replacement for awhile. I have a ton of NES games I want to play so it really sucks waiting. Any settings I could mess around with that make it look bearable?
@Retro_on_theGo: I will admit, I have been playing my NES and SNES games on my 59" plasma. I am currently playing Secret of Mana on my SNES and it looks actually good on it! I have played NES games Kid Icarus and Metalstorm on my Plasma and they look snazzy too! CRT is the definitive retro experience no doubt but as long as you change your TV's aspect ratio to 4:3 you will be right. The only game that has really bothered me and is very unfortunate, is Super Castelevania IV.Contra III and Gradius III are other one's that I have tried that look fine. Someday I want a CRT when I have a room dedicated to gaming but for now I will be at odds with my fellow retro amigos.

I just heard about Alundra for the Playstation and that it was similar to A Link to the Past. Anybody around here played this one?
Yep I had that one during the PS one era. I remember it was a very hard game. I ended up selling it to a friend of mine when I need to cover rent money years ago.

You guys are pretty avid videogame connoisseurs, so I thought I'd ask this question here. Do you guys think a new factory sealed copy of, "Baten Kaitos," will become a valuable collectible someday?

I'm interested in getting a Sega Saturn someday, maybe even really soon. I like most kinds of games except sports. Price and region won't matter to me, since I'll be keeping this list around for a long time.
Does anyone recommended Kirby 64? I really want it, because I love Kirby and it looks cool, but I hear so many mixed things about.
Well it might be the worst kirby game but it's not that bad the Music is good the boss battles are ok not the best kirby game but yous should try it out if you really like kirby.
It's a boring game. Kirby's slow, and most of his stages are pretty straight forward, IIRC. It's got some challenge to it at points, but not much. The hardest part is finding the last few crystals to get to the only good part of the game, the true final boss, which for some reason is a rail shooter segment. Those crystals are stupidly placed, IMO. Feel free to look them up, you may not ever find them otherwise. Compared to other Kirby games, it's easily the worst I've played. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that some of the power combinations are useless, and you need to get through most of a very long levels (did I mention some of the levels are too long?) while holding on to the worst power combination in the game on a stage where you can't get that combination. It's more annoying than it is challenging. You still fly through most of the stage, but there's one part you need to watch out for where there's lava tubes that you might hit and cause you to lose your power, all so you can get one of those crystal things.
