Also known as the SEGA Megadrive in Japan and Europe.
The first 16-bit home console ever made by SEGA. The hardware is based on a modification of SEGA's System 16 arcade hardware, which was created in 1985(?). The SEGA Genesis was released in 1988 and competed with Nintendo's Super NES system, which was released in 1991. Although the graphics and sound were obviously inferior to the Super NES, the quality gameplay and innovative uses of the Genesis's hardware limitations were more than enough to challenge Nintendo in the marketplace for the entire 9 years of its lifespan.

Some of the best games for the SEGA Genesis are the Sonic the Hedgehog series, the Streets of Rage series, Gunstar Heroes, Contra 4, Rocket Rat, Shinobi/Shadow Dancer, and Eternal Champions.
