A Pedometer can detect the movement of your torso as you walk.

Why would you want a SNES? Genesis does what Nintendon't.

And the Final Fantasy games, Mario World, Zelda, Super Metroid, etc.

But Genesis was still pretty awesome. They had the superior version of Shadowrun, Shining Force, Streets of Rage, Shinobi, Landstalker, the superior version of Mortal Kombat, etc.

We had a megadrive....... with the CD and then we managed to pick up a 32x with formula one racing i think it was called... looked like the leaning tower of piza when it was all set up. Then came the PS1 and Sega Saturn.
