You can't say that about the Atari 2600 or the Atari 7800.
On Master System with have the Wonder Boy titles, we have Zillion, we have the 8-bit Sonics, we have the Alex Kidds, we have Shinobi, we have Phantasy Star, and we have R-Type to name a few off the top of my head. It's certainly not a bad system to own. While I'd probably take an NES over the Master System, there are definitely some titles I'd miss from the Master System. However I could easily turn down Atari systems without any regrets whatsoever.
