Episode 31 - The Sega Genesis in 1989. This week on the show, we take a look at the games released for the Sega Genesis in the months after its launch, and up through its first holiday season. These include World Championship Soccer, Ghouls 'N Ghosts, Arnold Palmer Tournament Golf, Rambo III, Super Hang-On, Forgotten Worlds, Mystic Defender, Zoom!, and The Revenge of Shinobi.

World Championship Soccer is the clear stinker here, with Zoom! clearly in the "meh" category. All of the other games are absolutely worth a look though, as the Genesis really followed up the launch with a slew of quality titles!
