This is my original Genesis I bought in like '92(?) with one of my first paychecks from my first job at Chuck E. Cheese's (yes I'm fucking old).

I thought I sold it years ago but found out it was sitting in one of my mom's closets, so I bought a few cheap carts and hooked it up to a crt I keep around for just such occasions. It still works!

I am so goddamn happy, I just had to share and I figured you all might appreciate that.

I'm 41, I bought my genesis with paper route money as I wasn't old enough to work a real job.
