the hunger bar is the worst thing ever, it's amazing it took them 3 games to figure that out

Classic platformer, must play for anyone who likes the genre or retro games in general.

The sequels are much better.

This series doesn't get discussed/mentioned enough, even though they were mad popular back in the day.

Shit series. I remember playing Super Adventure Island at my cousin's house and making fun of the fat baby main character that rides a skateboard and throws boomerang. I made him turn it off so we could play Sonic & Knuckles instead.

Super Adventure Island 2 is a real underrated gem of a gaem.

Loved the Master System version of Wonderboy, the AI sequels felt kinda redundant to me. The mechanics weren't good enough to just keep making one sequel after another with minor improvements like in Megaman.

I played this back in the day and never got into it. It seemed crude and silly. Like a crappier version of Mario or something. I probably wasn't very good at it.

I kinda want to play it again now and see if it's fun. Maybe I got it all wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.

I think it's Wonder Boy with different music and Takahashi Meijin as the main character since he's big in Japan.

I have no idea how people even remember this game but not the game it is a romhack of.

Actually, I've seen more people mention the Wonder Boy sequels than the Adventure Island sequels.

Wonder Boy series is pretty good, but I prefer the more platforming-centric Adventure Island series.

just bought this one recently. I'm generally a fan of the Wonder Boy games but im enjoying this one too
