Shmups from the 80s, when even I still had the reflexes to play them 😂

Easy to pick up and very difficult to master mate. 🤣

Nice to see flight of pigarious mentioned. Some nice shooters on SMS. I still need to pick up Sagaia.

@8BitBoyUK 10 ай бұрын

Thanks, buddy. Yeah, sagaia is pretty tricky to pick up in the US I believe. I will keep my eyes peeled for you.

Thank you so much, and do you know I was actually thinking of picking up my game boy earlier. Alas it's currently in storage. I might have to try and sort that out over christmas perhaps. Thanks so much for watching it means so much.

Power Strike II vs R-type for first place? Tough one that, I'd personally go with Power Strike II as I think it is among one of the best 8-bit shooters out there and I tend to prefer vertical to horizontal. But then the Master System port of R type is a bit special with the extra level. I believe that R type on the Master System was ported by Compile, the same developer that made Power Strike! So glad that I still have my old childhood copy of Power Strike II seeing the prices it fetches these days! It’s one of the few games that makes me feel less disappointed in having a PAL console! :D Going to have to get Flight of Pigarus on my machine as that looks great!

@8BitBoyUK 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching. Very tight between R-Type and Power Strike 2 but the former just edges it for me. Yes Pigarus is nothing short of a miracle considering it's a ROM hack. It has no right to be as good as it is 👌

Great list (wot no Xenon II??? that was my go-to as a kid ... that said I only had about 10 games, but that to me was so much fun / frustrating) .. I have not got all on the list yet, (I have a woeful tale of Powerstrike) but will say I was really taken with Bomber Raid, it was really much better than I expected :)

Thanks so much, buddy. And yeah, there was a couple missing. Because I just don't get on with them if i'm honest. Xenon 2 and Action Fighter are not my favourite games. I love hearing everybody's stories though about the games they used to have and enjoy Thank you so much for watching.

@utopaline9491 10 ай бұрын

Does anyone here know what a good price to pay for a master system with 2 controllers, phaser, working 3d glasses in box and 17 games. I have the chance to grab one (only console from that era I'm missing). Just started collecting a couple years ago but don't want to get ripped off.

@8BitBoyUK 10 ай бұрын

Hello mate I would be happy to help if I can but with only limited information I can only really give a limited answer. I would imagine a master system with all of those things and the games if it has the box would be worth in excess of £500. Some of the games are quite rare now and can command that price alone although I'm going to assume that the games are fairly common so if the console is not boxed, then somewhere around £200 to £250 would be somewhat of a bargain. If you send me a private message on twitter, then I can probably advise further in more detail @8BitBoyUK 😉
