This is the third part of my Retron 5 playtesting series covering each system Retron 5 supports. Part three is covering the Sega Genesis & Mega Drive. I will be doing other videos on Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Master System & Famicom. The final part will be a full review of the system.

In this video we test 48 random Genesis/Mega Drive games including Licensed, Unlicensed, Imports, Multi-carts, Homebrews, Reproductions & Pirate carts.

In each part, I will be keeping an ever updating list of working and non-working titles in the descriptions.

If you have any requests for Genesis titles you would like to know the working status of, or would want to see played. Leave your request in the comments below and I'll try to get to those games first.

Here is the results from the games tested in this video.
