    My choices for the Top Ten Games on the Sega Genesis video game system are not aligned with any popular vote or critical ratings from gaming sites. These are the games I recall having the most fun with, regardless of mass popularity.

    I never thought I'd write a "top ten" list, but I figure that out of the over three hundred articles I've written for this site I'd be safe with this list that will probably contain around ten entries. 16 bit systems are certainly a thing of the past, a relic of the early 1990s that someone with an X-Box would think came out of the 1970s.

  • Mr. Alcorn was the first design engineer at Atari, whose own cartridge console eventually dominated the home video game market.
  • After inventing Demolition Derby, Mr. Lawson was put in charge of the company’s video game division. He and his team came up with cartridges that could be loaded with different game programs and then inserted into the console one at a time.

    I have a friend who owns several dozen pinball machines along with an old jukebox and an arcade cabinet or two. His collection now fills his basement, which has effectively put the brakes on his hobby. I'd love a few machines, too, but I fear that my house would share a similar fate. One appealing solution is a miniature arcade cabinet, like these two unique designs that recently popped up on the net.
