I've never played an MD game in my life, but Wonder Boy in Monster World is probably my favorite video game title of all time. I really like the Japanese box art, too :)

Wonder Dog mogs.

Gotta be honest man, 2d platformers aren't fun. They only started getting good with Mario 64 and Bubba the Cat.

I like this one, and I recommend this CD version over the cartridge one (PAL-only).

Some people count Castlevania and Megaman as platformers. And those are fantastic and you'd be crazy to deny that

This thread could have just been about platformers on the Genesis that are not Sonic

Because of how bad Sonic is? Yeah, probably. Sonic was Undertale of its time, come to think of it, it just resonated with autism.

We need to pretend that Alex Kidd is good.

I'm not big on platformers, but I will say that the Treasure games on Genesis like Dynamite Headdy and McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure are at least a hundred times better than sonic. Even the Alex Kidd games on Master System mog Sonic the Hedgehog
