Game Collection Re-Organization

               Hey guys, so I been picking up a few new pieces to my collection. Sorry again for the lack of updates, I figured I'd have more time to fit gaming/reviews and other projects in, but I haven't. I just re-organized my game collection though and figured I'd post pics to give you guys an idea how my Genesis CIB collection is coming along. Also posted pictures of my non Genesis stuff. Enjoy!

Basic Issues With the Genesis + A New Review : World of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck

Hey everyone, just a short post today - I'm not planning on going to in depth as I've already repaired what I have, but when I fix a friends Model 1 Genesis I will make sure I do pictures to help. So, I just want to bring of 2 specific issues that are common place in an older system like the Sega Genesis... Issue 1 : Loose A/C connector in the back. Find yourself  having to wiggle your power cord around to get the power to stay on? Simple problem with a simple fix. All you need is a Soldering Iron and some Flux. You can buy a cheap kit from Sears for about $10. All this problem is, is the solder connecting the power input to the main board has corroded away over time.

Let the fun begin :)

      Welcome to my Blog ladies and gents. I was going to wait until I had a complete U.S. Genesis collection before starting the blog, but a friend said...why wait? so...yeah why wait? The point of this blog is going to be to write reviews on every Sega Genesis game released in the U.S. and give some insight on how to identify and fix common hardware problems.       As of now my collection is 89 games strong, 66 complete ( boxed with instructions) and 23 loose. So...lets start this blog off on a informative note. For those who aren't Sega Genesis collectors, or are just starting...lets get you acquainted with the basics.       Sega Genesis, the follow up to the SMS (Sega Master System) was release in Japan as the Mega Drive in 1988. It was release in the U.S. in 1989 as the Sega Genesis as Sega could not secure the name rights to the Mega Drive over here. It was then released in Europe under the Mega Drive name in 1990.
