Thanks for this, Pat. Wonder Boy in Monster World for the Mega Drive is one of my all time favourite games on the system. I think it's a perfect blend of platforming and RPG action.
Absolutely,I've always enjoyed that version as well although I've enjoyed pretty much all the games in the series. Thanks for watching
Wonderboy in Monsterland 4 life!! gonna take that game with me in my coffin when I die.
Great video Pat, another home-run.
Man this was a nice video.
One of my fave series. I esp love III, Monster World and Monster World IV. People should not sleep on Cursed Kingdom either.
The 1st Wonderboy is my favourite Master System game ever made and just one of the greatest games ever made . My local chippy used to have the Arcade game and it was amazing to see how close the Master system version got.
Loved the sequel on the Master system, me and a few mates used to mitch off school just to play it, we must have completed Wonderboy 2 countless times. I was so upset that SEGA never looked to bring Monster World IV to the West, more so after all the hype it was getting in GameFan.
I hopping SEGA would go back to it in the 360/PS2 era and make a 3D game in the Canvas engine :(
I'm sorry, What?Quote:

Ah ok. I'd never heard that term before. We usually just call it Fish and Chips here in the states.Quote:

The norm for arcade in the states was usually just 25 cents. Generally tho a lot of those places were hole in the wall type arcades.
Like our chippy's. Didn't care mind it was all about the Arcade games and a bit of food latter. Even my school had 2 arcade units that were in the dinner hall. We had Super Cobra and the Tabletop version of GalaxiansQuote:
