The Sega Genesis/Mega Drive launched with six games in the US. While they were all visually impressive for the time, they weren’t as good as the Nintendo games that were available on the NES. The six games, Altered Beast, Space Harrier II, Thunder Force II, Super Thunder Blade, Last Battle, and Tommy Lasorda Baseball showed off what the system could do. Altered Beast was the pack-in game for the system and did a decent job of demonstrating the advantages of the Genesis over the NES. Unfortunately, it wasn’t as good as it could have been, and I’m not sure if any of the other launch titles would have done any better.
