Try playing the original SEGA catalog. Lemme know how many of those games work.

    Most of them? Care to provide some examples without the ridiculous "don't work" hyperbole? Clearly most Sega games were functional, otherwise no one would've been playing them.

    Did you try blowing in them?

    That wasn't actually good for the cartridge, long term. My parents provided us with q-tips, but we were a Nintendo family. I had a few friends that had the SEGA Master System, and though I don't remember the titles, I do remember several cartridges that we never played, because there were problems with the game a level or two in.

    oh so the whole "sega games are broken" thing was just your experience with your friend's pirated or literally broken cartridges?
