Set up the sega genesis dev tools. Need project ideas

I was bored and wanted something old school to work on. Any suggestions? My first thought was to make a mario paint clone.
GENESIS??!?! Blech. Should've went with SNES. ;P I might have actually been able to help with that.

As for project ideas... I'm a fan of randomly generated levels. Maybe a roguelike. Genesis had like the best console roguelike (TJ&E) so you could take some inspiration from that. Although you could probably improve the level generation a bit.

Or maybe a 2D version of Dark Souls?
I grew up on the genesis. Since it's going to be running on an emulator, and my roommate dabbles in mixing tracks and also grew up on the genesis, I'm thinking of making a tool that generates the necessary boilerplate crap and makes working with the sound chip a little easier. Start small(ish)
