It really is a remarkable-looking game, simple in hindsight but absolutely charming and perfect for me and my friend to co-op play at our not-so-advanced age. The differences in campaigns, the whimsy and catchy music, and the shark boss that's still scary, I don't care how old I get. All that and Donald and Mickey really play and feel like their characters thanks to all the wonderful animation touches...

@Jared Juggernaut I think that it's like... a platforming adventure game you can play co-op in really is part of the magic. Sure, I played Contra (or Super Probotector, EU and all) and Turtles in Time and Sunset Riders with siblings and friends, but the aggressive action of those kind of games felt different than World of Illusion. Maybe it's that you really help each other, and don't just fight enemies? And Donald and Mickey have ways to interact with each other, most other co-op games of the time feels like you're just separate islands that don't really interact with each other. So gorgeous graphics with great animations along with gameplay actions that really sell the "you're working TOGETHER" theme, I wonder if that's what really makes it stick in my mind. Perhaps my experience would've been very different if I had just played it solo.

Diamond Dust Zone from "Sonic 3D Blast" has always been one of my favorite levels in the game due to how much I enjoy winter-themed levels in some games, and I also loved the level themes for both Acts, which fill me up with nostagia every time I hear them.

Total agreement with Streets of Rage 2. I thought you might mention it here. I love these videos, man! I always look forward to your content! In Contra Hardcorps, my absolute favorite stage is the one where the ending is Colonel Bahamut escaping in a helicopter where it turns out the alien DNA is a fast mutating virus that infects everything around it. I love all the setpieces in that stage with the foreboding music and the infected soldiers transforming into monsters and eating each other, and the references to the other final stages in previous Contra games but with a different spin because the bigger enemies are implied to be mutated from infected humans the deeper into the stage you go, culminating in a battle with a big alien queen with a weird human face. I really feel like it nailed that alien horror element more than any other in the series and I love it!

Can't rate this channel highly enough, quality content with added personal stories (I too also love the Marble Zone!)

Definite ones for me would have to be: The Minecart stage from Gunstar Heroes. The action is awesome, the music is great and its probably one of the best boss battles on the system. Heck from Earthworm Jim. The soundtrack and the enemies make this one for me, fighting lawyers and a snowman that breathes fire is just the height of silly and I love it! The Machine planet in Ristar also springs to mind. It's got some of the catchiest music on the system and the stages are really challenging. The maze can be very difficult but also make you look like a pro when done right. Those are just off the top of my head, sure I could come up with more!

Aquatic Ruin is brilliant level design that rewards careful platforming. First few times you play it, you're going to trudge through the water (and maybe even drown a couple of times), but once you learn how to time your jumps properly, you can whip through it similarly to Emerald Hill Zone. The other water stages in Sonic don't offer such an alternative and submerge you in the water for most of the level.

Nice video again, these stages are awesome at least, for my pick, I always love the beach on SoR1, the music, the rough effects, everything. Thanks for the videos man, I'm always be waiting for the next one.

That was great. Please do a part three to this series. Some of my other favorites include:- Stage 2 Green - Gunstar Heroes, Lava Reef Zone Act 2 - Sonic & Knuckles, Stage 2 Downtown Dance Club - Streets of Rage 3 and The Haunted Level - Animaniacs.

Seeing what some of these devs pulled off back then with just the Genesis always makes me wonder what they could have done with some quality time on the Sega CD.

One of my favorite Sonic 2 zones would be stage 5 (Hilltop Zone); don't really have a preference for the segment just the aesthetic and music are appealing throughout.

Gunstar heroes first stage (and most stages) is pretty epic! Music, parallax, chaos!

Very underrated game and personally my favorite game out of the early disney game on the genesis. I wish they kept the illusion series alive during the Saturn and dreamcast era. They missed on mickey mania on the Saturn due to the ps1 and I wish they made 2D illusion for the Saturn before transitioning to 3d for the next Saturn and dreamcast sequels.

These episodes are a great idea. It's great to watch this knowing there are a lot of people out there who lived it and still remember the time fondly. Great job :)

These videos made me realize how long it's been since I pulled some of these games off the shelf. I am gonna have to buy Ranger X, because I've never played it. Time to go jam on my SEGA. Radical.

Ya know you can actually just stay at the top of those pillars at the end of Aquatic Ruin. If you're standing near the edges you can go up with the pillars and you can also just bounce off of Robotnik to bounce right back on to the top of the pillar. If you're good you should never touch the ground.

Bro because of your videos ive been balls deep in sega games , tryin to get through castlevania bloodlines now , i can literally hear your video intro music as the sega logo hits the screen , love your channel love your content ! Niners for life 💪

Great Video! Enjoyed it very much! When SoR2 was mentioned I immediately thought of the Amusement Park Stage. The Gigeresque always stays in the back of my mind as an Alien fan :) A new video with the 10 best backgrounds from the fighter library of the Neo Geo would be great! There are so many great ones that a top 10 at the end is guaranteed to be a super awesome video - very controversial of course and would probably need more than one part as well :)

Dahna: Griffon stage; Alisia Draggon: second stage; Rolling Thunder 3: Airplane stage; Valis 3: first stage; Pulseman: New Tokyo stage; Phelios: griffon stage; Eternal chamoions: Larce Stage; Kid chamaleon: first snow stage; Rambo 3: third stage

New Washington in Flashback is an awesome level. The way they made it feel like a real city was so cool.

Favorite stages on the Super NES: Stage 3 (where you are climbing a skyscraper) of Contra III The Alien Wars, the Ballroom stage (Stage 6, cool boss battle with the revolving background) of Super Castlevania IV, Spark Mandrill stage (I liked the high energy rock music) of Mega Man X, the haunted house scene of Tiny Toon Adventures Buster Busts Loose, Penguin's stage in the Adventures of Batman and Robin.

My favorite Sonic the Hedgehog-related level is the Doomsday level from Sonic 3 & Knuckles/Sonic 3 Complete. I loved watching Super Sonic and Hyper Sonic fly through space!

Streets of Rage 3 club stage, Micro Machines 2 table with food truck stage, Quackshot sunset Mexico stage. Earthworm Jim first stage, Super Fantasy zone volcano backgrounds, Ultimate Mortal Kombat lava stage, Musha Aleste Canyon stage, battlemania daiginjou 2nd stage, Rocket Knight many stages, Pulseman many stages and Panorama Cotton many stages. And there are many more! Great content my lord

You are a legend man. The only guy I wish I could retro game with. This is my top 10 in no order. Jurassic Park Rampage Edition: Cargo Ship, Amazing graphics, game play and I love the music in that stage as well as how it progresses from outside to inside the ship. Streets Of Rage 2: Baseball Stadium, I mean, my favourite track in that game and I love how every level progresses in that game. Far smoother than the first game. Rocket Knight's Adventure: Stage 6, I mean wicked music and that level gives you one impressive challenge compared to all stages in the game prior. This level set the tone for the rest of the game as how much more aggressive your playstyle will have to become. Bio Hazard Battle: Stage 3 Jungle, The enemies, the bosses, the audio, I mean, this level to me was perfect. I find this game to be highly underrated. Sonic & Knuckles: Stage 2, the best music in my opinion from any Sonic game, it just kept you wanting more and more. This level is the music that sells it so damn well, and you can tell this is a Michael Jackson song. Alien 3: Stage 2, An amazing rocking tune in the background that keeps you pushing to find the prisoners before they meet their fate. The level of detail in the environments and the horrific styling of the deceased made this level creepier then the rest outside of Stage 4. Urban Strike: Vegas, I love the night fighting, and how intense this level is. I love how explosions light the night sky, and love the way this mission plays out. It blew my 6 year old mind when I watched someone for the first time show me past Stage 2, and that level left a permenant memory. Revenge Of Shinobi: Chinatown, The music in that stage is some of Yuzo Koshiros best, and it really sets the tone and atmosphere to that kick stage. The layout, the enemies, the atmosphere and more just sell that stage. Streets Of Rage: Final Stage, The music again sets the atmosphere, the windows showing how its turning from night to day, facing all former foes again, on top of the final showdown with Mr. X, that level has always impressed me. I will never forget beating it with my brother for the first time. Toy Story: Second level at Sids House, I love the music especially, the atmosphere is dark, I also find this to be one of the most underrated and amazing Sega Genesis games of all time. The story following the movie literally, the level designs constantly reminding you of the movie, the audio, the 3D elements, and more make this entire game worth owning and a must have. Apologies for being so late to the party.

Another one of my faves is the Ellis stage in Thunder Force III with it's phenomenal music, multidirectional scrolling and cool enemies.

Sonic & Knbuckles - Lavareef Zone A massive zone with a lot of atmosphere. The loomin Death Egg in the background, a boss battle so different from all other bosses in this game, great music and a strong shift in tone for the 2nd act. Megaman: The Wily Wars - Mega Water S. Stage. awesome backgrounds and the music in megaman is always great. Mega Bomberman - Area 2 Vexin' Volcano. Driving a minecart and bombing enemies the can fast detonate your bombs, while lava is raining down. All that an a theme, that sicks in your head for weeks. Ristar - Planet Sonata. In the first level of this planet, you build up the music by giving metronomes to birds. This song is the theme of the bossbattle. But it's level 2, that I really like. The theme is the same, as before, but faster and more energetic. Guitars are dancing and everything is upbeat.

so happy you did more of these!

It's a mix of stages Chemical Plant and Oil Ocean stages for me on Sonic 2. As for Ranger X, there is something unique about playing that stage where you're just going up the side of a building. The reflections and the breaking of the glass was something I loved looking at back then.

The real and only excellent ice cap zone. Miss ya...

ahh, that ice cap music still moves me all these years later... the best music in sonic 3 hands down

14:09 YESSSSSSS 1 Billion percent!!!! Back in the day my friends hated playing this game because it was a "poor contra clone," but I loved playing it for the music itself. After putting some time in, you can show them that you can get good at a poor-contra-clone and give it some replay value.

These two videos were great! Data East and their run and guns were similar in structure. Awesome gameplay, not fantastic but passable visuals, and amazing music that made the game. Everything said about Midnight Resistance you can apply verbatim to Bloody Wolf on Turbografx. If you're going to do a fan version of these my vote goes to stage 1 of X-Men 2: Clone Wars. You turn your Genesis on and bam you're playing the game. Your X-Person randomly chosen. No fuss, no waiting, just get to it. Once you beat it then you get the intro screen. Also the snow effect is great. The stage overall does a great job making you hyped for the rest of the game.

Love these favorite stage videos! So far a lot of the games I love have been featured here. One stage I did love though from a game I’m yet to see is the Technodrome from TMNT: Hyperstone Heist, the different enemy types, elevator segment and music are all top notch! Definitely one to consider if there is a 3rd segment.

Just a state that popped in my head is the first stage of robocop vs terminator (MA code entered of course) hearing that music and just blasting enemies some from the original robocop film into a bloody pulp was just a sight to see as a young teenager

Amazing video. Some of my favorite stages: Ys III- Ilvern Ruins and Valestein Castle. World of illusion- underwater adventure stage. Splatterhouse 2- crystal prison. Castlevania Bloodlines: Versailles Palace. Fatal Fury- Geese Howard stage (the tune on Mega Drive is not that great,but the setting is excellent). And if you count Sega CD games too: Sonic CD- stardust speedway 3 (Sonic vs Metal Sonic) Final Fight CD (subway and bay area).

Facts alongside surfing stage as well.

My favorite is from Target Earth/Assault Suits Leynos, stage 8: after you and your allies fight through endless waves of enemy forces, your commander sacrifices himself by blowing an opening on the gigantic enemy mothership. In a rare moment in the game, you are completely alone with no friendlies or comms. Despite being surrounded by traps and defense turrets in the mothership, your commander died because he believed that you could stop the enemy general and end the brutal war. I can list other favorite stages (and plenty were mentioned already), but that game and stage left a huge impression on me in my younger days. The PS4/PC remake is great too as a budget title

Another great video! For me Hilltop Zone on Sonic 2 was great!

So little likes. That was the best game related video I have seen in ages and I was SNES and PC-Engine fanboy myself back in time. Those Toaplan shooters ported for the Genesis. Just greatness!

I really like the bridge on Level 2 in Super Castlevania IV. The whole second stage is awesome. The end boss in Ghouls N Ghosts on Megadrive is amazing too. China Town in The Super Shinobi.

Dude, amazing sequence of games and stages. Think you have plenty space to bring more like Earthworm Jin, Vectorman, Ristar, Verytex and Comix Zone for example. Well done, great videos and content, my best regards from Brazil

I was a scifi junkie even as a kid and any of the urban stages in Flashback made me think...WOW I AM LIVING THE BLADERUNNER MOVIE! Snatcher and Shadowgate had similar feel but the entire game.

Always loved the levels where you ride a giant elevator. The one at the end of Streets of Rage reminded me of the "After Dark" screensaver "Starry Night".

It's a great run n gun. I think it's biggest issue was you couldn't shoot up or diagonally. If you could, I think it'd be much more popular today.

Aquatic Ruin is lovely. Amazing music too

Awesome content as always! Never disappoints.

Glad you enjoy it!

Loved this 2 videos!! Can't wait for snes and arcade too!!

Awesome stuff!!

Lol like you said before, if only you could shoot up in Turrican.... Great video as always by the way! Definitely going on my favorites list of games to try out sometime.

i just noticed how dope the cover art for mega turrican was!

Good stage choices in PT1. The Shadowdancer Statue of Liberty is my all time favourite.

Thank you segalordx great work Sir
