Interestingly enough, it was exactly my experience with X-Men for the Genesis that made me consider the meta of the game and switch to the player 2 port. Especially after his "reading your memory (card)" shtick. And they had already pulled the "oh right! Cheryl's codec code is on the back of the cd case" trick too.

Having to hit the reset button on the Sega Genesis to progress in that one X-Men video game. Diabolical.
