1) I never like PowerRangers until later ( like recently ) in my life.
2) I was a Nintendo-pion fan. If it was Nintendo I had to have it. "Do the Mario"
3) SEGA was the "other-team" and I did not want to play for it. Sure it was cool, hip,
darker, but could never defy the cuteness and kawaii of the NES or SNES glory. Getting
a converter for my SNES open me to enjoy many import titles on my SNES, which I still
use today. That being said the MD ( Genesis ) had a lock-out system and I was not into
RPG games until the MarioRPG / Breath Of Fire III / FFVII hit the shelves. Phantasy Star
never had any commercials as far as I could remember. I think the biggest commercial
that I cared about was "get down with Zelda" GB.

Honestly SEGA artists in the west was on fire. They did a way better job then what was
being done in Japan. However I wonder if US marketing would switch gears with JP marketing.
Because the prior SMS/MarkIII artwork was god-smack. Then it came back in the Dreamcast
where the Japanese art was god-smack but the US art did that
"In your face close-up anime/micket thing"

The "FM sound" was in via the MarkIII add-on or built into games. The Genesis FM sound was
auwsome. Most of the SEGA CD games that was fun was from Japan. Even so "Call of the Dragon" was something to own. Because the SEGA CD version has actual audio ( voices ) despite the drop in color from the Amiga or even the DOS version. Snatcher utilize the light gun, but again censored and drop in color.

Again most of the more interesting games was from Japan. The problem with this system it was like $200 more on top of a Genesis. Many
parents said no!!!!!
