I always wanted a Genesis as a kid, but then when I made a friend who had one, I ended up not really liking most of the games iconic to the platform. I really only remember 2 games fondly:
Ecco the Dolphin and Eternal Champions. And yeah, I played Sonic and Mortal Kombat and a lot of other hits.
I never heard of anyone having fond memories of ecco the dolphin.
I have fond memories of it too. Granted, those memories involved being utterly confused as to how to proceed, but also being utterly astonished by the graphics. I distinctly remember it being basically photorealistic to my 9 year old self— going back to play it with an emulator was a bit of a shock (and letdown) compared to my memories of it.
I did beat it as an adult. As a kid I may lot have been able to get anywhere, but it was magical all the same.
