Ran across an article about that controversial game Night Trap on the Sega cd and it reminded me of middle school when I got straight A’s (a rarity for me) because my parents said if I did I could get a gaming system so I picked the Sega cd since it was the newest thing. We get to the checkout and my dad sees on the box that it can’t run unless it’s connected to the Genesis. So we got that too. Sega cd flopped and I ended up playing the Genesis until I got a job in high school and got the PS1.
Any of y’all ever have a Sega cd, Neo geo, turbo Grafix, lynx, CD-I, etc?
I remember how hard they pushed the Virtual Boy in Nintendo Power.
I also recall trying the demo unit at ?Kmart.
They really used Mario Tennis in their marketing as proof of concept.
