Genesis Reviews
Nightmare Circus
Completed but pulled from western release schedules at the eleventh hour, Nightmare Circus managed to make it to store shelves in South America thanks to Tec Toy. Given just how bad the game is, it’s no wonder that it was canned. Shoddy controls, poor hit detection, and an overall lack of action make this one game that would have been better off stillborn.
FIFA Soccer ’96
Though many would argue that Sensible Soccer was the better series, Electronic Arts’ FIFA games helped define the sport of soccer on the Genesis, and they are still very playable today. Some were better than others though, as evidenced by marked contrasts between the ’95 and ’96 installments.
WWF WrestleMania: the Arcade Game

Taking everything you love about professional wrestling and tossing it, Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game pits eight WWF legends against each other in some hilarious matches. If you’re a fan, then you need to check this one out!
Ottifants
Among the many European titles that never came to the American Genesis was Ottifants. Based on an obscure property that wasn’t all too well known in its native territory, it’s no surprise that Sega of America deemed the subject matter to unfamiliar to U.S. audiences for a localization. Depending on your tastes, you may or may not be missing much as a result.
