The list would go on and on. So to keep it concise:

Action & Platformers Castlevania: Bloodlines Contra Hard Corps Kid Chameleon Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Sunset Riders Vectorman 1 & 2

Beat 'Em Ups Alien Storm Golden Axe Trilogy Streets of Rage Trilogy

Role-Playing Beyond Oasis Crusader of Centy Phantasy Star series Shadowrun

Sports & Racing NBA Jam OutRun Road Rash

I could keep naming games, but that should be enough to give you a taste of what made the Genesis unique, as well as some spins on franchises that dominated the NES.

Oh, check out Toejam and Earl as well.
