It's... I mean, it's impressive that they got a version of Street Fighter running on the Master System, but it was a way late, redundant release that came out well after the far superior SNES, Mega Drive, and PC Engine releases. Virtua Fighter 2 is on Master System as well, but neither is a reasonable facsimilie of the original; they're fun curiousities that really only exist due to the unique economic conditions to Brazil in the time. Not trashing the game; just don't go into it expecting to play a real game of Street Fighter II.

When we look back in time, it was really unthinkable such a thing. Nobody waited find something like the original version. It sound like those miniature cars: they aren't expected to work like the real ones. But it's amazing imagine how far they went to reproduce it. It's a work of love. The same to MK. That happened that time due the Company which represented Sega here in Brazil. They started translating Phantasy Star for portuguese and little by little gained experience to developed. And SMS had a huge marketing campaign for here.

When I was a kid the only way I knew about the existence of the Master System was the Sears Christmas catalog - the concept of a Alf game was enough to make me want whatever a Master System was. I don't ever remember seeing Master System anything in any of the stores around me as a kid. A girl in elementary school claimed her brother had one but she was a total liar - I also remember her lying about having Super Mario World before it came out and she said it involved "Yoshi Surfing". It wasn't until like 93-94 that Genesis really had a retail/rental presence where I lived (great plains USA) even though everybody loved SEGA arcade games like Shinobi and Outrun

It is always nice to see more Master System attention. Good list of games. The SG-1000, Mark III, and Master System are underrated/unknown, especially in the states. I didn't know anyone who had one growing up and got my first one a couple years ago. Lots of great games and memories to be had. In the current collection climate, you can get a nice size library without spending a ton.

I really appreciate how even-handedly you discuss these games. There's this odd contingent of people who try to re-envision history as having had an 8-bit console war that never really happened. The NES was a non-factor in Brazil, and the Master System had no traction in the US. Brazil had such unique economics with the cost of technology and the massive gap between the upper and lower classes, coupled with stringent import tariffs and domestic manufacturing laws. It created this unique environment for Tec Toy to keep the system alive for a solid decade after it was dead in the rest of the world. So many of those curiousity games like Virtua Fighter 2, Street Fighter II, Earthworm Jim, etc. were games that came out after the 16-bit wars were over, and weren't secret killer apps that Nintendo squashed to keep the NES on top. I don't mean that as a knock on the Master System itself... I love it, and have been an owner for decades. There are a lot of fun, unique games to play on it, and it deserves love; just not strange power fantasies about the "what ifs." If folks would just let it be what it is without trying to force it into a box of expectations, they may just find out that Zillion is a really good Impossible Mission clone and not a Metroid clone (and that Zillion II is actually better), Ghostbusters is more fun to play than the other versions, and Gangster Town, Rescue Mission, Rambo III, Safari Hunt, etc. are the best light gun games on any 8-bit, period.

@@SegaLordX True. When the Megadrive was released in the UK the master was packaged as a bargain bucket machine, and it's price was slashed. It was less than a third the cost of a Megadrive so sales stayed strong. There were still adverts for it into the mid 90s!

I remember seeing those games, but having had to sell my MS to get a MD, overlooked them. I did play a bit of New Zealand Story at the supermarket, I was just annoyed by its music and forgot about it. Now put side by side with other games, it does look pretty advanced. Thanks for this video.

The SMS library is quite shocking. It seems to be a neverending discovery of games you cant believe were made for it. SOR for example. I have that, need part 2. It's crazy how much there is in stage graphics and combat. A bit rough with collision detection but the NES couldn't have dreamed of that SOR port functioning on it. Thankfully the 8bitdo wireless controller pauses the SMS for the special. Personally I enjoy having the SMS versions of many of the Genesis titles. Its like playing a familiar experience in a different way.

Some reasons might be that they were pushing the graphics harder and most of these games were 2 to 4 Mbits standard while many earlier SMS games tried to stay around 1 Mbit. Also, many of these games have western developers...I find that you can usually feel the difference although it's hard to pin point.

Great video of interesting obscurities

Ha I've been waiting for this video! x)

Awesomeness please do more thanks

Love this vid, thanks man. Where as many I knew had the NES, I was a Sega boy and had the master system (Australia) with blaster and 3D glasses..Just in me early teens at the time.. Besides the weak sound chip of the western consoles, I loved that thing.

I started off with a master system and still collect for it. One of my favourite consoles of all time. Wonderboy 3 best game ever

I owned 3 Master System games together with my Mega Drive and the Power Base: Golden Axe Warrior, Psycho Fox and Wonder Boy III Dragon's Curse. Sadly someone stole the Psycho Fox cartridge so I've only got the box, still a good thing it wasn't Golden Axe Warrior as that is a lot harder to get, and a heck of a lot better game in my opinion. Great video as always!

It's amazing that the SMS had such a long life in Brazil. It makes sense, because for a long time, gaming had(/has?) been unobtainable for a large part of the population due to costs. I remember reading that year-old consoles could be two months of an average worker's salary (though I could be remembering this incorrectly). So the SMS stayed popular because it was introduced to the market and supported for a long time. There were probably SMS fans in Brazil in the early 2000's that didn't think of it as "retro gaming".

I never knew the SMS even existed until 2001 when someone mentioned it to me. I eventually downloaded an emulator and played "Phantasy Star."

love you work my friend. big fan. seriously you should get into streaming on twitch. not many out there like you.

I saw the master system for the first time in 1993 with games such as fantansy zone,alex kid,mj moon walker and road fighter, these were hard games and they still are.

Forgotton Worlds is my favourite port, got it for Chirstmas 1995 or 1996 at first I felt not dissaponted but due to its difficulty felt I wouldn't play it much, then I spent time learning it and it became a game I came back to every year for about 4 or 5 years multiple times when I eventually played the arcade and Mega Drive versions via emulation I couldn't get into them due to the control differences and level layouts

Love the Master System!

One that I REALLY loved was Monster Boy in Monster World on Master System (1993). In fact I played this version before the Genesis one. The graphics were less complex but still had a very strong style and the music was amazing. As for fighters on low powered hardware, Killer Instinct on Game Boy was actually pretty cool. Very smooth compared to the super choppy Street Fighter II, and the music tracks from the SNES magically survived and are awesome.

I first played Mortal Kombat on the MS2 and it was glorious, keeping in mind I was a kid with no money and poor parents it was this version or nothing, not that I had ever tried the Genisis version so I didn't feel I was missing out anyway, was very enjoyable, NES owner missed out on sooo many ports

The thing with some of those games is,like you said, that we didn't played them in SMS because they were good or groundbreaking, it's because sometimes they were the only ones available to us when we couldn't afford a 16 bit and didn't had an arcade nearby or couldn't go to one for any reason (for example: Mortal Kombat). Nevertheless we have found memories from them and some are true masterpieces.

I never had a Master System, but I had a Game Gear and a Master System Converter. I found a ton of Master System games cheap in pawn shops. I really liked Master System Sonic 1.

Snazzy new ident!

I have never even held a master system controller in my hands before. Didn't know a single kid growing up with one.

Taz Mania looks great, I'll have to check it out

Yuzo Koshiro was involved in Namco X Capcom for the PS2 in Japan as a composer.

I love seeing these. They're all so freakin' interesting. It's crazy to see what could be accomplished with this tech in good hands, from good artists, musicians and programmers who actually cared about the SMS and had the time to work their magic. Seeing all these heroic attempts to get as close to other versions of more powerful games as possible - it's incredible that so many enjoyable experience could be crunched down successfully... even if adapting those more ambitious designs were just a bit too much for the SMS at times. And man, that MK port is _ROUGH._ Even watching with the footage sped-up, it's still so damn choppy and slow. 8-bit fighters can be quite good in the right hands. Just had to build with the weaker hardware in mind.... but that's the thing, ain't it? Until Street Fighter 2, fighting games weren't even a genre that was cemented down yet, so of course the 8-bit systems largely missed out. Still, ya just gotta look at releases on the Game Boy and GBC to see games that show how they could've been done well on the SMS or the NES. Many of Takara's SD Game Boy fighters (Toshinden GB, for instance), Crawfish's port of Street Fighter Alpha for the GBC is a really good 8-bit fighter too, plus a few original games like Power Quest or Super Chinese Fighter EX (aka Kung-Fu Heroes or Ninja Boy). It would've been amazing to see any games of that caliber come out on the SMS back in its heyday. There's an unlicensed Korean SMS game called Jang Pung 3 that is actually super good - MUCH BETTER than that attempt at Mortal Kombat. It just makes me wish the genre had more attempts back in the day from these great studios that were working on games officially with actual development kits. Would've been nice if the genre was represented _well_ on Sega's 8-bit machine. Oh well :/

Been looking into it some and the ability the map sprites to background tiles while causing no flicker does come with a lag aspect, basically it's constantly taking two bitmaps and combining them for every frame rendered over and over again plus it's locked to the grid that is the tilemap. So SMS fighting games can make sprites of decent size but they can't move fast enough or in fine enough increments to replicate the gameplay well. You can make better 8-bit fighting games but you got to reduce everything way down like Crawfish Interactive did in Street Fighter Alpha on GBC. It may be tiny but the animation is smoother and you can actual pull off special moves unlike SF2 or MK on SMS. Really a case where you have to prioritize the gameplay above all other matters.

Fun fact: the master system and mega drive (genesis) were released in Brazil very close to each other in the very beginning of 90 's , at the time because the lack of information and the fact that the master was in the market for about 1 year before the Genesis, a lot of kids went to the stores to buy their consoles completely ignored the Genesis, and the other hand, the master already had games pre installed, which caused parents to pick the 8 bit instead of the 16 brother

Jurassic Park on Master System. JUST - PLAY - IT - ! IMHO an hidden gem.

I wat to find a copy of The New Zealand Story for Genesis. This looks fun as all hell.

Hurrah for Taz, I do not own a master system game but a Mega drive one which has been one of the very few games of my own that has been in my Collection and not in my brother's- Taz Mania has been there from day one so to speak. but I do not have a Master system so... It was not evident to me what the game was like having only seen the box art. Taz Mania is not only the one game I have had on my own the whole time, even Before I bought the machine from my brother as he wanted to buy a Playstation, no not just the longest standing game in my Collection I have also completed the game several times, I do not know if I could be as much in focus and Control due to the somewhat flimsy nature in Controls in 8-bit game- I my family we Always thought that SEGA Machine meant 16 bit while Nintendo was the 8 bit unit all the way, we also had an atari 2600 but in more recent time only controller 2 works so we have been called upon waiting for player one to loose but this was in 4th-6th grade or so...nice video

I still have my master system mkII with Alex the kid built in

The weird thing about Taz-Mania is that it was a completely different game on just about every single platform it was released on. The SNES one is also completely different for example. I have no clue how that happened, but negotiations must've been fun.

Funny when you think about it. Over 3 consoles Sega nailed a different territory each time: Europe - MS, US - Genesis, Japan - Saturn. But missed big chunks of one or both of the other regions each time.

Honestly, I think the 8-bit Sonic games are all the better for not being ports of the original games.

I just learned mortal kombat was on the master system, now you blow my mind that earthworm Jim was too? 🤯

8-bit fighting games - If you're talking about arcade ports, I'd agree with you that the 8-bit versions weren't much good. However there were some pretty good original 8-bit fighting games. Like Way of the Exploding Fist, International Karate, IK+ and Barbarian/Death Sword. All quite enjoyable on 8-bit computers.

Fighting games on 8-bit hardware are a tough sell indeed, but "Masters of Combat" and "Jang Pung 3" appear to be somewhat decent.

The way you feel about the Sonic games on the MS is my general attitude towards 16-bit software being downgraded to 8-bit. But I recognize that some 8-bit versions can be unique on their own to make them worthwhile which is interesting.

Just another testament to how good Sega was they could make an actual fighting game that looked and played like a fighting game not too far removed from the 16-bit version that actually worked if Nintendo tried that on the NES it would be the worst thing you ever seen you would break it. But this version actually looks playable yes not as good as the other ones but if you're in another country with no other release u play the hell out of this

I honestly wonder why they bothered including a 2nd controller port on the SMS, considering how many of these ports were single player only

Growing up in europe it was a much fairer competition between the NES and the Master System probably in part to the price of the NES games and compared to the rest of the world a really poor selection of games. Although the Master System also had continued support much longer which probably helped, although some of the ports of 16-bit whie functional weren't worth playing. I do still have the copies of both Sonic Chaos and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine I got from really late in the life and was always impressed about how much extra animated the characters were in Sonic Chaos over the first two Sonic games it was remarkably close to the 16-bit games in that respect.

It was my first console, and i still have it and play it to this day. And here it was just a console next the Mega Drive, that you could chose from. It had alot off the same games as the mega drive, somethimes not as good but it had them. Sonic 1&2, Robocop vs Terminator, T2 the arcade game, MortalKombat 1&2 , castle of illusion. Streets of rage. In my opinion Sonic 1, was better than the mega drive version. But that's just taste of a gaming. And you should check Robocop vs the Terminator, and T2 The arcade game, both great games, i even try to say that T2 the arcade game of the master system is the better version. Also Alex Kidd in miracle world is a much better game than the mega drive Alex Kidd, Batman returns, and so on. The Master System has a special place in my hart. Keep up the great Sega videos and game on.

Is that...Kristen Stewart as Blaze Fielding?
