Hello Steemians,... it is another bright day filled with so much awesomeness... hope we are having an amazing time... I'm here again this time with something I feel is awesome, and that is to bring back the memories of every gamer.
During my childhood days, video games was like the whole world to me. I would do anything just to play a game. I remember my neighbour having a saga mega drive2 console game, I would always go to his house just to play the game, infact I made his house my second home cos I literally stayed in his house more than I stay in my own house... Lol.
This attitude made my parents to be really upset with me cos I will leave everything I'm supposed to do at home and go to play games... This continued until my dad set me a target wen I was writing my junior secondary exams ... Lol..
His target was that if I'm among the first 10 position in my class (school) in overall exam grade, he will get me anything I want... And I told myself that I wasn't screw the opportunity up... I was motivated and eventually fell within the target... It was at that point I really understood the power of motivation...
Lol... I'm getting too carried away with my personal experience... Let's get right back on track.... So sit back and relax as I recall back the memories of Sega mega drive 2.

The console is basically a square shaped console engine with the company’s name (SEGA) and game model type boldly written on it. With rounded corners and beveled front corners. The console has a covered slot on the top where the cartridge is inserted. The console has two distinct buttons, the power switch (on and off) and the reset. button. On the front of the console are two game pad connectors and also the TV and AV cable connectors at the back of the console.
THE GAMEPAD/CONTROLLER
The controller is curved semi-circle like shape with 7 buttons and the directional button.
ADAPTER
Just a regular medium pin adaptor for powering the console.
AV CABLE
Without this cable, the game cannot be played on a TV. The AV cable wire is just what connects the game console to the TV.
MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
I really enjoyed the game back in the days. The games I played mostly was mortal kombat, sunset riders and international super star succer deluxe. Moral kombat was one of my favourite and I played it countless times.
Overall, I must say Sega mega drive 2 was one of the best game consoles of that era. The quality was great and the experience was like never before.
