Rosenau is part of a growing community who are ditching contemporary video games and picking up the consoles from their childhood, or even before their time. And gen Z gamers are following suit, with 24% owning a retro console, according to research by Pringles.
Fair enough considering I (as a Gen z that calls himself a millennial because I hate how cringe Gen z is) have a few retro consoles.
Sega Genesis & Dreamcast, and PS2. The others I wouldn’t consider retro yet. Maybe in a few years, though, but not now.
Definitely looking in the future to get my hands on a Sega CD, Saturn, and Game Gear to have all the greatest retro consoles I could think of. Though that’s far off because of how expensive they are.
Try emulators for the Game Gear. Some games were great, some sucked big time.

But seriously, try Defenders of the fucking Oasis, it’s awesome, it had a great story, great music (I can still hear the music in my head 30 year later, god I have to play that game again), great cutscenes… And all the Sonics sucked, forget those.
On the Genesis/Megadrive, you had Beyond Oasis which is not a sequel but is still good and more action-oriented. You could play that one too.
