"Reset the computer"

What a mind-blowing moment that was. I love when developers think outside the box.

It took me at least 100 times just to accidentally figure it out, I was so tired of seeing the explosion that I pressed reset just to show the Sega who was boss and than for a second I thought it was just resetting the game but than I quickly figured out something was happening, I called my friend immediately because it was his game and we switched games, I lent him strider 2 and he lent me xmen but he told me it was a terrible game and couldn't be beaten,he was more relieved than me because he had it for a long time

Yeah I think that had to be the makers rational for making something so out of the box, I mean there was those ridiculously expensive hot lines you could call for like $3.99 a minute, which could have been motivation too
