Lot's of goodies already listed.

I'll second (or third, fourth, whatever):
Castle of Illusion
Gain Ground
Golden Axe
Gunstar Heroes
Lightening Force (yes, the game is mis-spelled)
Streets of Rage 1 & 2
Thunderforce III
Vectorman
Wings of Wor
Wonder Boy in Monster World

I didn't see these listed already but I wasn't really paying attention. :P
Beyond Oasis
Final Zone (I like it, may not be everyone's cup o' tea)
Forgotten Worlds
Hellfire
Revenge of Shinobi
Sol-Deace (hard as nails but has lot's of neat graphical things going on)
Sunset Riders
Steel Empire (Fun steam-punky shootie)
Virtua Racing (I don't know if this would run on one of those everdrives, but it's pretty impressive to see all that 3d on the Genesis)

Twin Cobra isn't nearly as good as Kyukyoku Tiger on the PCE, but it has a pretty boss soundtrack.

Dragon's Revenge is Tengen's miserable attempt to make a sequel of Devil's Crush/Crash.  It's pretty bad, but probably worth checking out if you're into Devil's Crush (and who isn't?)

I've also put way too much time into Flicky.  :oops:

To add to the list I would say:

Phantasy Star 2 & Phantasy Star 4
Ranger-X (Ex-Ranza)
Arrow Flash
Golden Axe
Rocket Knight Adventure
Bio Hazard Battle
Gynoug

Lot's more but those are just off the top of my head that was listed in the thread (or I couldn't see from the glance I had :D)

awesome suggestions guys. I have played many of these already and agree with you guys. It will be nice to try out some of the SRPGs on the console, and some of the shmups that were only released in Japan.

Langrisser is one of the best SRPGs every created. It's called Warsong in the US and was the only one in the series ever released officially in English.

There are 2 on the genesis right, and then a few more on the saturn as well correct?

Seriously go for Shining Force 1 and 2 then.  Not as in depth as Warsong or Dark Wizard, but I like them a lot more.

Don't think I saw it on anyone's list, but my gf and I enjoy playing Haunting: Starring Polterguy together.

Just played Hyperstone Heist with my friend the other day and had a blast too.

Also, can't forget the overlays in Road Prosecutor :P
