I think grouping it by developer is an interesting way to look at this information. Sega contracted a lot of third-party studios to make Genesis games, though a few, most notably Novotrade/Appaloosa and Blue Sky Software, released the most titles by far. Sega’s few first party developers go first, followed by their third party studios. I decided, for this list, to list games by their developer. Many of the best Genesis games may be Japanese, but American developers contributed many of the best-selling, and some of the best, games on the system as well. I do not agree with people who dismiss the Genesis’s Western library. It is one of the best consoles and has an outstanding game library. This list shows the depth of the Genesis’s Western support. Please note that I do say when games didn’t release in North America, but not necessarily when they didn’t release in Europe or Brazil sorry about that. Games like sports games are important, they are some of the best-selling titles and sports games for Western markets were a critical part of the Genesis’s success. As you look down the list you will notice some classics and some forgettable games. Here is a quick list I just made of what should be all Western-developed games Sega published for the Genesis, Sega CD, and 32X. I probably have written something similar to this before, but not in this format.
