Renovation provided a major software lift to the Genesis in its early years, releasing all sorts of titles and covering almost every genre imaginable.

16-Bit Books: Mega Drive/Genesis: Collected Works
Genesis owners finally have the book they’ve been waiting for. With tons of art and interviews, the Mega Drive/Genesis: Collected Works is a feast for the eyes and a tome of wonder for fans of Sega’s most successful console.
