Hi! I joined the forum a couple months ago and missed the introductions section. Im a huge sms fan in the US. When i was a kid (89? 90?), everyone had nintendo and super mario. So naturally i did too. Christmas morning i open up a box and see the sega. I literally asked my dad 'does it play mario?' I had 5 games, not the greatest collection. Altered beast, alex kidd the lost stars, double dragon, dead angle, time soldiers. From the very beginning, i had to explain tonother kids what inhad, because to everyone, sega meant 'genesis', no one knew about this. It sat for years, only occasionally turning itbon. Survived a yard sale at one point. Then, in 2000, when i first started using ebay, i made an astonishing discovery (yes it took mebthat long to find out) that the sms had sonic games! When i first played the first sonic game on my sms, it changed everything for me. By the end of that summer, i had sonic, sonic 2, chaos and spinball. The enjoyment continued. From the moment infirst played phantasy star, i loved it. Play through every year or so. Favorite games of all time. Was excited to see the existence of mortal kombat games, got all three (3 is terrible of course lol). Over the course of the last 17 years, with a couple years off mixed in, my collection grew to the current 167 games i have. I have all the us titles, and im just 8 of the re-releases from having all the us games. I have 2 of the 4 upc sticker games, but i also dont count those as us games, personal preference. Added the model 2 sms, gear master and action replay. I have learned that others have bigger collections, but im still very proud of mine. Most importantly, i still love playing these games. Being a sega master system fan is a lot of fun! Looking forward to being a part of this community!
