My babysitter had a master system when i was like 8 or 9, I played Ghostbusters all the time on it, when we were not playing Monopoly. I gotta say your commitment to the quality is just amazing. I always look forward to staying up late on Sat nights to watch the new Game Sack !

[@UltimateGamerCC]

Ghostbusters was a guilty pleasure of mine.

[@metalman_j]

My family loved Monopoly on the Master System. We thought it was way better than the NES version!

[@Ralph_Sandwich]

Was your babysitter named Heather?

[@aquaglow1]

Similar, except my babysitter had wonder boy and sonic

[@johnpenguinthe3rd13]

My babysitter use to come over to MY home and I was the one who owned the Sega Master System. LOL. She use to play Double Dragon with me A LOT (Double Dragon on Sega Master System can be played by two players at the same time. It was a great two player team-up game). Rocky was another game we played together (Rocky has a two player mode where player 1 plays as Rocky and player 2 can play as any of the three opponents: Apollo Creed, Clubber Lang (who I always called Mr.T) and Ivan Drago, A.K.A: "Mister I will break you" as my babysitter called him. LOL). Rocky on Sega Master System is actually pretty fun as a two player game. We also played Pro-Wrestling on Sega Master System together and fought each other since that game has a two player versus mode. Most of the time I would play as the Great Maskmen (who were homages to real hall of fame wrestlers known as Mil Mascaras and Dos Caras) and she would mostly play as the Mad Soldiers (who were homages to real hall of fame wrestlers known as The Legion of Doom / Hawk & Animal: The Road Warriors). That game was really good as a two player versus game. Time Soldiers was another Sega Master System game (similar to Ikari Warriors, but better) which had a two player mode where we teamed up together. We would beat the prehistoric and ancient Rome and World War 2 levels together. We both made it together as far as the beginning of the Future World before the enemies would annihilate us. LOL. We also played Great Baseball together (which was another game which played great as a two player game. We would always try out different teams against each other). She liked baseball at the time and so did I. She also helped me level up on YS: The Vanished Omens (YS: Book 1 on Sega Master System. It's a one player only action RPG, but she helped me level up my character in between the main parts of the game. She would have Aron / Adol run around and kill enemies to increase my levels and then hand the controller back to me when I had to go through the main parts of the game. However, she helped me out greatly when it came to navigation (like in the cave), especially when I had to go through the tower since I would easily get lost and she would help me find my way through. Finally, the one game we both HATED was "My Hero" on Sega Master System. We would both take turns playing "My Hero" only for both of us to get extremely frustrated by this crappy game. LOL. It was one of those games with a "FAKE two player mode" (one of those games where each player takes their turn after the other player dies but you can't play together). I think the farthest we made it was the beginning of the third level before we were both killed. We both HATED "My Hero". LOL.

This is so ambitious and absolutely the type of content I want to be watching on the KZbin

[@danielnicholson6174]

It's ambitious but not a great video for people that didn't grow up with the master system. Joe sounds flat when talking about absolute classics such as fantasy zone, spellcaster, cloud master and California games just to name a few. I almost feel like he's over making videos.

The fun in Spy vs. Spy is the traps you can plant. Despite both players seeing the same screen, this really works well and is what makes the game fun. Even better on the harder level. On the easy ones the traps don't matter as much, but *can* when used right.

[@StandingUpForBetter]

Seriously appreciate all the work that went into this episode. I was an original Sega Master System owner. I still remember the day I got my Sega Scope 3D Sega Master System bundle for Christmas. Those were some great times. With all the Sega Genesis compilation releases it always puzzled me why Sega never released a Sega Master System compilation on modern systems or PC complete with FM sound when available. Again well done and thanks!

[@hjames78]

[@HamtaroSonicHedgehog]

It's unfortunate, sega only ever re-release a select number of master system games, usually including them in either one of their games, or in their genesis compilations.

[@HaakonAnderson]

I would like to see Nintendo try to revive the the arcade market in the Pacific Northwest and select regions of Canada!

[@DerekBarns]

Well, I think it boils down to lack of promotion when the thing was released. Does anybody remember a single Master System ad in the US?

[@katherineberger6329]

I remember seeing print ads for the Master System version of Asterix, possibly in mid-1991. Sadly it appears it was canceled when the system died. Oh well. It's a great game and I have a copy now. ;)

When Dave originally left I was worried but you have kept such an insane level of quality and passion the whole time and are still going above and beyond. Massive respect to you and I love this channel more with every video I watch.

[@GAG091186]

This video must have taken a long time to make, but in return this has to be in my opinion the best KZbin video about the games on the Sega Master System because of that. I did know that the US had way less games for the Master System than the EU, and that became very clear watching this video. Only the first 8 bit Sonic entry available, Castle of Illusion but not the impressive sequel Land of Illusion, no Bubble Bobble (the Master System version is by many regarded the best home console release of that game), no Tom & Jerry or Submarine Attack, no Wonder Boy in Monster World (8 bit conversion of the Genesis game) and so on. I live in Europe, and the Sega Master System was my very first gaming console.

[@martinantelo7086]

Grab the romset and the difference between the US folder and the Europe/World folder is just staggering.

[@JohnSmith-or7gh]

I remember Joe mentioned that the Master System was the console he wanted to have a complete US fullset of games. His work and dedication on this video is absolutely out of the charts. Thank you!

[@rufusray]

Damn, good memory.....,I believe he said that on their game room tour episode.(edit......upon watching he did say there was one game he didn't have, James buster Douglas boxing. It's a crappy boxing game, it's 2000 in box complete, so who can blame him lol)

I love the original Spy vs Spy on the Sega Master System. My friends hate it though, so I'll have to play this one alone versus the computer.

[@Joe-Rad]

Spy vs spy is really fun couch co op. Setting traps for your friends is solid fun. Sick video. Love the master system. Lots of feelz.

[@retrofan01]

Really enjoying this, great video. For someone in the UK who got his Master System in 1992, it's bizarre to think that the system was already discontinued in the US by then and a huge shame that you missed out on games like Ninja Gaiden, Sonic 2, Power Strike 2 and Land Of Illusion over there.

[@juststatedtheobvious9633]

Not to mention, the Sega made Asterisk and Obelisk games...they're so much better than their 16-bit counterparts....and the 8-bit Core one. But Tonka sold the Master System here, as bad as Mattel sold the NES over on your side of the pond. I saw more people with Atari 7800 consoles, despite the 2600 quality sound. Just the box art alone made the Master System look like a rip-off. Assuming you could find it at all. Sega took over at the last minute, hyped up Sonic and Golden Axe so they could hold their heads high in defeat...and then they were gone.

[@andrewwilliams5655]

So I'm watching thinking "He forgot Sonic 2.... ah I bet Joe is playing some sort of joke on us here..... THEY DIDNT RELEASE SONIC 2 IN THE US?!??!?" Well to be honest the first one is better in any case.

Honestly, retro games are just more fun than most of the new games....the stylish and/or cute pixel art, the simple to learn and fun (but hard to master) gameplay...i remember thinking when the 32 and 64 bit systems came out 'why would i ever want to play those crusty old 2d 8-16 bit games ever again?'....little did i know retro gaming would become my fav hobby, when i was in my 40s lol.

[@brandonginsburg3120]

I think the speed, lighting, and quantity of visuals are very important to consider. I got fairly overwhelmed playing Sonic 2 the other day (but I still enjoyed it). My point is that I am sure there are slow-paced, non-flashy modern games if overstimulation is a concern. If not, I can invite myself to piss off.

[@HerecomestheCalavera]

Another amazing video Joe! Game Sack should easily have at the very least 1 million subscribers but for some reason people would rather watch crap over high quality informative videos. A video I would really enjoy seeing is a review of every PS1 game released in the US. Of course I realize that is basically impossible seeing how there are someone around 1,278 US PS1 games. Even at 20 seconds per review that would end up being over 7 hours of video! Not to mention the work of capturing footage from each of the games. I had an idea to make a youtube series where I'd randomly pick games from the NTSC PS1 release list and review a new one every day until I got through them all. I still would kind of like to do it but I'd most likely get 1,000 views per video at best. Probably more like 150! It would be fun but idk.

[@flowbeus]

As a big SMS enthusiast, this video absolutely rocks, cool to hear your take on these games. Like any system, the SMS has some really bad games, but there are many super stellar games on here for the time, and a bunch that are still fun to play today. Yes Penguin Land is a puzzle game. It's definitely one of my favorite games on here (top 20). But you have to like puzzle games. Psycho Fox has momentum issues in the controls but once you get used to it it's a pretty cool game. Aztec Adventure is a quirky, overlooked action/adventure game. The bribing mechanic doesn't really work and I think this is where some people stop playing, but you don't have to use this mechanic at all and then it's just a challenging overhead action game that takes some perseverance.

I never saw a Sega master system irl but it looks so much better than my NES was, graphically at least.

[@monolyth421]

In general the SMS looks good but the palette is awfully saturated and the best looking games are on the NES when the graphics made the most out of the system, for example Kirby's Adventure

[@ostiariusalpha]

Top tier games on the NES, such as Ninja Gaiden II, Kirby, or Bucky O'Hare, had graphical effects that put the Master System to shame. Not that the SMS couldn't do similar effects, but sadly, no one ever made as much effort to actually put them to use there.

[@ostiariusalpha]

@@monolyth421 There is a reciprocal complaint against the NES for is desaturated color palette. It's kind of silly either way, since both systems use CRT monitors, and any decent set should be able to adjust its saturation to your personal preference.

Thank you so much for making this! Freaking fantastic video & a great reference to know what games to try! I would LOVE to see you do a follow-up where you cover all of the Japanese & European games that didn't come out here, as some of the best games for the system only came out in those regions.

I don't miss Damien, I barely noticed that he exists. Chill out.

Btw I'm not sure if its on all of the Sms but missile defense 3d was built into our system if you booted it with no cartridge. We didn't find this out until owing it for over a couple years.

Great video. I guess I’m pretty in agreement except maybe for the oddest titles. Me and my friends had tons of fun with Pro Wrestling. It had a nice move set. Tennis actually was very good. And I probrably liked Alien Syndrome and Quartet more than you did.

Considering the number of titles that require a SMS controller I think it's time the aftermarket makes a new gamepad for the platform. Genesis D-pad and a more rounded shape, that would be sweet. Although maybe a GEN/SMS combo is more likely, add a mode switch.

I’m 28 seconds into this video and I’m so fucking excited! The Sega Master system is my absolute favorite retro system!
