The Japanese Master System has a YM2413 sound processor capable of FM synthesis alongside the regular Master System sound hardware (3 square waves + 1 noise channel). Most emulators support that, so yeah, I enabled that feature when I recorded this video.
@nineko7 жыл бұрын
Yes, it is. But as I said, this game can make use of the YM2413 capabilities when played on a Japanese Master System (or a suitable emulator), so I decided to use the richer soundtrack instead :) You can find both soundtracks on the smspower website: www.smspower.org/forums/11978-VGMPackWonderBoyInMonsterLand Both videos (mine and that guy's) are "correct", I hope this clarifies :)

Is this version the one in the Wonder Boy Collection? I love Wonder Boy, but except for Asha in Monster World (Monster World IV), I have them all on a Raspberry Pi 3B. The only thing that bugs me about Monster Land is that there are no continues of any kind. Does anyone know if there is a save in the WB Collection to avoid flipping? I managed to pass it twice as a teenager. But of course, a long time has passed since then.

I just found an easy way to beat this game. Learn all the secrets and get the Ruby. Buy everything Legendary except the boots. The boots you will want Ceramic boots. Trust me this will help you a lot at the last level. Now when you do the jump back and forth from brick to brick. The game will not glitch on you like when you do it with Legendary boots. Only get Legendary boots if they give them to you after that brick to brick jump.

I don't know what the point of this walkthrough is. You don't buy armor, Shields and boots because you want to make the game as hard as possible. But then you'll fall through the ceiling to make it easier. So here I am thinking ok lets see if he beats the bosses then for stronger swords. Which you do that. Here I am guessing if you didn't upgrade the sword you won't beat the game. So you want to get 1 million points but then I see ok he isn't killing enemies when you are on the part there getting the legendary sword. You missed the catfish in the water at level 11. Keep knocking at that question mark door in the water. Then you would have had the Ruby beating the last boss faster to get even more points. I don't know how you did the side to side brick jumping on level 12. I usually fall all the way down when I do it with Legendary boots. I didn't think it was possible to do it with leather boots.

I would nearly always die at the Sphinx boss stage because I chose the wrong option
@tonyp93133 жыл бұрын
Yeah I would die there too. Easy way to do that boss is to buy the letter to Betty. To do that you have to talk to jack in the Mam Desert. Which means you have to buy the more expensive alcohol 2 times. You buy it the 2nd time he says hey give this letter to Betty. Betty is located the very next level after where the Sphinx is on the same floor but the door is on a platform to the left. So do not go dropping down to the right keep going left after you dropped down once. It's the door all the way to the left on a platform. You have to buy the 2 most expensive drinks again. When you buy it the 2nd time off betty she'll give you a clue for the Sphinx. Now if you are a kid with low reading skills this won't help. If you can read and figure out riddles then this is no problem.

The Master System version comes with FM songs if you play it on a Master System with FM support (e.g. a Japanese one, or if you install an FM unit on a non-Japanese one). Of course, since I'm playing on an emulator, I can easily enable the FM music. It's played on a Yamaha chip, the YM2413. It allows for 9 melodic channels, or 6 melodic channels and drums. If you're interested, look at the smspower website.
