Just played and beat the second Golden Axe Arcade game with my kid. It's great.

Golden Axe 2 was only on Genesis.

Yes, there was a game actually called "Golden Axe 2" on Genesis, but I was talking about the second Golden Axe arcade game.

I thought you might be. It's a great one! It's not called Golden Axe 2, though.

Don't sleep on "Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder", while not available for Genesis, definitely the best version there is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6inP3NQPXY

And if you're ok with some "jankiness", there are several fan made versions worth your time for OpenBOR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUybVkHLRMo
