Mickey Mouse and the Genesis have quite a storied history together. Beginning with the grandeur of Castle of Illusion and continuing on to the great World of Illusion and Mickey Mania, the famous mouse has made a home of the 16-bit wonder. Sure, there have been some hiccups along the way (read: Fantasia), but the majority of Mickey’s outings have been highly playable and fun. Capcom’s foray into the Disney rodent arena, The Great Circus Mystery Starring Mickey and Minnie not only has one long title, it’s also a great little two-player romp.

Super Street Fighter II
Super Street Fighter II saw a release on several consoles, and the Genesis verion ranks among the best. Packed with just about everything the arcade original had to offer, there are few fighting experiences better on the console, giving players a wonderful game to enjoy alone or with friends.
Saturday Night Slam Masters
When the working day is done, it’s time to crack some heads! In the ring of course, and there are fewer ways to go about it than with Capcom’s Saturday Night Slam Masters. A big arcade brawler squeezed onto a Genesis cart, it has more than enough action to keep you playing.
Mega Man: The Wily Wars
You’d think that with the amount of fame Mega Man enjoyed during the 8-bit era, the dude would get his shot on the Genesis once Capcom openly supported the platform. In a sense, he did…just not in America. While PAL and Japanese Mega Drive gamers enjoyed a great compilation of the first three games called Mega Man: The Wily Wars, U.S. fans were left in the cold.
Punisher
The Punisher was a decent arcade brawler that made the jump to the Genesis mostly intact. Whether it’s alone or with a friend, there’s some classic Capcom beat-’em-up action to be had here, so read and see if this one is worth the high asking price.
