Hey VR,

So... I just got my Master System out and figured I might waste some money on upgrading my collection. Give me your thoughts on the best SMS games....

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 07:06:54 2013 No.610384 >>610130 Well, it comes with the best MS game ever made. That aside, if you want something really hard to find. Get X-men 3: Mojo World. BR only, 1996. If you want something fun, Phantasy Star, Astro Warrior, Ys, and Wonder Boy games.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 07:15:54 2013 No.610398 >>610395 I own the cartridge version, used to play the card version at my friends house when we were younger though.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 07:28:54 2013 No.610432 >>610398 Nice.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 07:49:54 2013 No.610483 >>610384 I've got the original Wonder Boy - probably my most played game as a kid. What's the best game in the series? I know the other titles are pretty different...

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 07:51:54 2013 No.610489 >>610483 You should get wonder boy 3, vastly superior.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 07:54:54 2013 No.610494 phantasy star 1 and Miracle warriors! one of the best rpgs ever made

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 08:27:54 2013 No.610635 >>610384 I've got a MS II with Alex Kidd in Miracle World - but my MS I doesn't have built in games.... Is that normal??

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 08:38:54 2013 No.610704 My favourite games on the system are Shinobi, Castle of Illusion and Heart of Darkness.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 09:57:54 2013 No.610998 >>610676 OK, that's it - I'm now looking for Wonderby 3...

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 09:58:54 2013 No.611005 >>610635 Didn't the MS I's have Hang On built in???

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 10:34:54 2013 No.611178 >>611005 Don't have a master system - but I thought they had 2 games built in?

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 11:33:54 2013 No.611493 >>610130 http://krikzz.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=52 This is a really good game OP.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 17:35:54 2013 No.613029 >>610130 Miracle Warriors for that super old-school rpg feel. Penguin Land is also pretty fun.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 18:48:54 2013 No.613508 >>610374 Yes!! Awesome soundtrack!

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 21:54:55 2013 No.614523 >>610130 Dragon Crystal. Good luck finding a copy.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 22:29:25 2013 No.614708 Kenseiden. It's a bit like a non-linear Castlevania,but in medieval Japan, and you're a samurai. Shitrox.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 5 22:29:56 2013 No.614709 Zillion is pretty cool.

Was lucky/unlucky enough to own the system from U.S. launch as a lad. Most of these suggestions are a great start.

Don't have it anymore but here are some memories from childhood:

The R-type for master system has levels that aren't in the arcade game. It's also absolutely beautiful for a home console at the time.

Rastan is a fun Conan ripoff.

Don't bother with the genesis ports.
Vigilante was O.K. there was a very decent karate beat em up that had karate in the title that I remember liking.

I played several licensed games. They all suck.

Also the first Rambo game is devilishly hard.

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 00:50:26 2013 No.615362 >>615303 Agreed. Castle of Illusion was great. Anyone else love Psycho Fox????

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 02:06:10 2013 No.615614 >>615375 I don't think so. The board in it is pretty well devoid of fancy chips, but before some faggot stole mine, I never had any games that could do FM sound. I may as well get the Mark III.

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 08:21:57 2013 No.617050 Anyone got an opinion regarding if Outrun on the SMS is worth owning/playing???

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 08:26:27 2013 No.617060 >>617050 Completely disregard the Genesis ports (unless you are a collection completionist).

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 08:40:28 2013 No.617084 >>617050 best version is Outrun Europa, emulate it though as the physical copy is rare and rather costly

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 08:46:27 2013 No.617108 >>617084 That was my favourite game as a kid, but i sold it with my console and the rest of my games for $20. now i can't find it cheap anywhere.

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 09:17:27 2013 No.617189 >>610635 Press up and both buttons

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 09:56:57 2013 No.617306 >>617060 Ecco the dolphin is worth adding to a collection, it's a bit of an oddity in some respects and is actually fun to play

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 10:16:57 2013 No.617362 >>617189 Whoa whoa whoa.....! Hold up. Are you serious????? When do I do this??? On the screen that says "Master System"??????

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 10:54:27 2013 No.617476 >>617050 From what I hear, a copy of Outrun 3D with the 3D glasses is quite a collector's item. Be on the lookout for it.

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 18:07:22 2013 No.619516 poesidon wars 3d has one of the best 8bit tracks I've ever heard

>>	Anonymous Mon May 6 19:14:46 2013 No.619882 >>617362 I want to know this too. Wouldn't it give you some sort of prompt?

>>	Anonymous Tue May 7 07:47:46 2013 No.623359 >>619882 On mine - pressing up and both buttons opens a crappy maze game. Is my sega just a cunt??

>>	Anonymous Tue May 7 08:06:16 2013 No.623412 Good to see other fans of Miracle Warriors, I played the shit out of it but never finished it. Had a hand drawn map of the world that was like 4 pages taped together. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jdRX0nvS_U

>>	Anonymous Tue May 7 21:29:47 2013 No.627053 >>619882 >>617362 >>617189 >>610635 Different models have different games built in. The older models have a maze game called Snail Maze. Later models have Alex Kidd in Miracle World, or whatever. I don't know them all.

>>	Anonymous Tue May 7 21:31:17 2013 No.627064 >>615362 From what I remember of playing it, it was infuriating because of no health, and I don't think you could jump on foes. I know the gameplay was taken and put into Decap Attack on Genesis, and I love that game. I should give Psycho Fox another go.

>>	Anonymous Tue May 7 22:04:17 2013 No.627213 will there ever be a flash cart for master system?

>>	Anonymous Tue May 7 22:11:17 2013 No.627258 >>627213 Ta da! http://krikzz.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=52

>>	Anonymous Wed May 8 09:28:47 2013 No.629648 >>627053 Thanks anon.... I guess that means my MS is old - that's sort of cool.

>>	Anonymous Wed May 8 14:57:47 2013 No.630830 >>623359 how dare you speak ill of the mighty Snail Maze sir, though even after all these years the music still seeps into my head unbidden quite a bit which can get weird
