OK, I've got a Genesis I bought in November 1991 (Sonic 1 pack-in), and I've got 1 game that can only be played by using it with a game genie as a pass-through (Wardner), and 2 games that I can't play at all: Funny World/Baloon Boy, and Road Rash 3. When I plug the latter 2 in, I only get a black screen.
So, does anyone know if there's some kind of lockout chip incompatibility with these 2 games and my system, or do you think they might be dead?
