Difference between revisions of "Mega Drive games"

Super Thunder Blade was a launch title for the system and is a fairly common game.

As Sega's most successful console in the Western world, there are over 1,000 Sega Mega Drive games released for the platform. In Japan, the console debuted in October 1988 with Space Harrier II and Super Thunder Blade as launch titles, with official software support tailing off in late 1997. Unlike prior consoles, Sega opted to work with third-party publishers, leading to a large library supported by then-industry giants Acclaim, Accolade, Capcom, Electronic Arts, Konami, Namco and Taito, among many others.

The last officially licensed Mega Drive game to be released was the Brazil-exclusive Show do Milhão Volume 2 in 2002, however unlicensed "aftermarket" titles are still being released to this day.
