The SMS version is a really good port, but the original arcade version still holds up as the best one. Best graphics, best sound, best control, none of the tracks are cut for space and that epic feeling of playing on a big stage as you're running down the maze-like corridors of the Labyrinth of No End in hopes of reaching the final boss. The only thing people might not like about it is that it's considerably more challenging than the SMS port.

Such a shame that the PC Engine version has butchered sprite design (due to copyright issues) because it's otherwise a very faithful port. I'd have bought it since a long time had it kept the proper Wonder Boy design but as such? I don't really want it... But this version has a few other annoyances such as the fact that the main character doesn't knock at doors anymore before entering rooms which is a shame too because that little moment was priceless and integral part of the game's charm. Sega did a solid job with the Master System port which stays faithful to the Wonder Boy universe. Just a shame that this version lacks a few tunes (because no, it doesn't have "different music", it's just the same soundtrack with some tunes swapped and some others simply missing) but other than that, this version looks and sounds good, has different in-game presentation and got an exclusive level which is always a cool plus. It's a Master System classic, worth owning in any cases. As for the computer ports, that ST/Amiga title screen is quite hilarious. Wonder Toddler! :D But well, the ST version was my first contact with this game, circa 1989. I instantly loved the visuals and music and thought the game was fine as is but once I knew about the Master System port I didn't go back to the ST one and the Amiga and CPC ports are similarly mediocre but the ZX Spectrum port seems OK (given the hardware capabilities, that's it) and could the C64 port actually be good? Overall the arcade version remains the best. Then I'd say Master System for the slightly different take and the exclusive level. Wonder Boy in Monster Land was trully a fantastic and unique game when it was first released in the arcade and I still would love a more perfect port than the existing ones (that could be developed for the Mega Drive and that Sega could make official just like they did recently with Darius? This would be awesome!).

It's pretty different from the arcade's feel ,and the western version is a lot less punishing (but still punishing) than the arcade or the japanese version in which bosses takes twice as many hits. I played the Atari ST version quite a bit, it wasn't that bad. The feeling I have now, seeing these ST ports is often that they were pretty terrible but really then I quite liked them. That is, until I had a Mega Drive at home.

The Master System and PC-engine CD versions are probably the best home ports of this great game, but I think the C64 port did quite a good job as well. This was a massive game for the venerable C64 to handle, but it looks nice and instantly recognisable, and it plays well. It's a shame there's so much in-game loading, but considering the platform and how massive this game is, I guess that was sort of unavoidable. The Amiga version, by comparison, is sort of embarrassing. It's weird how many arcade ports actually looked and played better on Master System, NES, and even the C64 than they did on the Amiga. The Amiga was such a brilliantly designed computer, it should have gotten way more love from developers. Instead, it got a whole bunch of bad Atari ST ports. :/ At least Monster Land on the Amiga isn't quite as bad as it is on the CPC I suppose. The Wonder Boy series is, imo, the best reason to get a Master System. Monster World is great, and Dragon's Trap is even better. Great series of games.

I dont think there is a CD version of this game unless you count PS2 SEGA AGES vol. 29. Exelent compelation btw.

Also, kind of random, but I find it ironic that the best port of this game gets the worst looking walrus fortune teller.

You didn't compare the dynastic hero in this video, how come?

Because that game is a port of Wonder Boy in Monster World, a different game (although its beginning is very similar). Maybe we'll make that comparison in the future.

@@retrosutra okay, i know when i'm wrong. Monster world is wonder boy 5 and monster land is wonderboy 2. You're right.
