As a lad, I remember the Sega Genesis being the pinnacle of home computer entertainment systems. My television was rarely used for actually watching TV and every main present at Christmas was cartridge-shaped. It shows how far we’ve come (or how old I am) that I can now play Genesis\/Mega Drive games on my phone for just a few bucks. Of course, the experience isn’t quite the same as the old days, and the iPhone touchscreen isn’t always conducive to intuitive console-style gameplay. However, if you’re looking for a cheap thrill that will take you back to the glory days of the early Nineties then get these Sega classics on your iPhone now. Load up iTunes<\/a> and click the links to the App Store pages.<\/p>\n
