Such was the case with reader Felipe Fortes, who introduced some Sonic The Hedgehog tunes while DJing at a Brazilian night club! Read the sixteenth installment of Stories from the Book of Genesis and see how he brought the house down in a good way!

Creative Genesis: Video Game DJ

Being the huge fan of video games that we are, it is no surprise that we’re fans of the Genesis. The console has a very special place in our hearts, and titles such as Phantasy Star IV, Sonic The Hedgehog (parts I and II), and Landstalker will remain favorites forever. That said, contributor Felipe Fortes was tossing around the idea of making a special DJ set comprised only of video game music and share his passion towards game music with his friends and everyone who just wants to have a terrific time at a night club.

America’s Least Wanted Vol. 02: The Case Against the Genesis

Consider if you will, the fact that every console has it’s fair share of crappy games. Those that are so bad that they are the subject of pity and mocking, moreso than scorn. Experienced Sega gamers know which ones to avoid, but what of those unfortunate souls who haplessly stumble into them? Who is held accountable? What if the competition of the era decided to call Sega out on it’s use of the Seal of Quality? Who would they place such a massive responsibility on? Why, attorney extraordinaire Phoenix Wright, that’s who! Only Harvey Birdman is more famous, and if there’s anyone who’s able to get to the bottom of this barrel of turds, it is he! We were lucky enough to get a glance at his pre-trial notes, so read the second installment of our America’s Least Wanted series before he finds out! OBJECTION!
