I did need the manual though for specific codes.Quote:

Never knew the Sega Mastersystem had so many great games.
Though it's a bit unpolished in some ways, I found Rambo III to be very enjoyable. It makes good use of rapid fire with the SMS light gun and has some unique aspects to it like using the grenades to find hidden items. I also like how the grenades can harm civilians.Quote:

Well, after some time i got my PBC and it came with a game:Altered Beast, which IMO is a crappy game.
Ninja Gaiden is my highest recommendation for the Master System, I find better than all the NES Ninja Gaiden games. It's easier, better looking, with great music, and no slowdown what so ever on a system known to run at like 15 fps most of the time ;)
Truly a work of art.
Here's a gameplay video with some subtitles with info on the game:
Get:
- Sonic the Hedgehog
- Sonic the Hedgehog 2
- Castle of Illusion
- Land of Illusion
The SMS is a great system and has really cool games to offer. The greatest strength is definately the jump'n run-genre.Quote:

Castle, Land and Legend of Illusion (awesome jump'n runs)

This is not listing the games that have superior MD-versions.
I don't have all of these but I have most and this is a pretty good list. I would also add that Choplifter is fun enough to buy.Quote:
