If you had a Sega Genesis, raise your hand.
If you still have a Sega Genesis, raise two hands.
If you still have a Sega Genesis and have just played it within a week ago, scream out “Hoopla!”.

Yeah, the Sega Genesis. The good ol’ days of Sonic the Hedgehog, Toejam and Earl, and Paperboy. They were all great games that I used to be addicted to when I was little. (Well, I kinda still am I guess…) Those pixelly, 8-bit graphics were just the most amazing things I’d ever laid my eyes on.
But what if you no longer have a Genesis and still want to indulge yourself in the fun-ness that only Sega’s console could provide? (Yes, fun-ness, got beef?) Not to worry. See, with the aid of computer emulators, you can still play all your favorite games from back in the day right here on your computer. And guess what? All for free.
I, myself, use Gens32. What this small little app does is basically “emulate” a Sega Genesis console right on your computer so you can play all your favorite games without a hassle. Before you can play however, you would need to get the ROMs of the games you want. You’d simply google “genesis roms” or something similar and you’ll easily find what you’re looking for. These ROMs are surprisingly small. The ones I have for the Sonic games are all 1MB or less.
Once you have the ROM, you just need to open it in Gens32. Once it’s open, you’ll see and hear that classic Sega logo and jingle. Brings back memories, doesn’t it?
Link time.

There are emulators out there for more modern systems, such as the PS2 and Xbox, but I haven’t ever tried using or downloading one. It seems like a little more of a hassle and I don’t really want them. I’m good with just the Genesis
.
Hope you can get some fun out of this like I did.

Simply put, Phun takes real life physics and makes it fun. (See where the “ph” comes from?) When you open the small application, you are welcomed by an empty canvas. Here you can draw circles, squares, or anything you want. You can connect items to eachother or make them hinges so they swing from side to side. These hinges can be turned into motors so you can basically create your own vehicles. (If you want, you can make these motors run by using the arrow keys.) There are other features aswell, such as chains and springs to connect things to eachother. The possi
bilites are endless.
