Where do I start with this series if I want to play all of the canon games in order? The release order is confusing af.And is there any reason to play the console versions over the arcade ones?
>>12534231Start with the Speccy version of the first one.
>>12534231Wonder BoyWonder Boy in Monster LandMonster LairThe Dragon's TrapWonder Boy in Monster WorldMonster World IV>And is there any reason to play the console versions over the arcade ones?The Master System ports of the two first game has a couple additional levels.
>>12534231Mogged by Adventure Island
>>12534328Fair, yeah. I'd argue that the Adventure Island games are probably better overall than the original WonderboyBut damn, Adventure Island CANNOT touch the Monster World games. I still remember when Hudson tried to do an Action RPG with the series (Super Adventure Island 2) and it kind of fell flat
>>12534249Adding to this the SG-1000 port of the first one is practically a different game entirely
>>12534249What about Monster Lair, should I play the arcade or the Turbo CD? I'm so confused by all the different ports. I just want to play the definitive versions of each.
>>12536071>Definite versionIt's the ones that everyone played so>Wonder Boy = Sega System>Wonder Boy in Monster Land = Sega System>Monster Lair = PC Engine>Dragon's Curse = PC Engine>Wonder Boy in Monster World = Mega Drive>Monster World IV = Mega Drive
>>12536073>Sega SystemNot sure if trolling but I'll try it. I'm probably going to play the arcade versions anyway with save states and then the rest without.
>>12536073Dragon's Curse isn't a Wonder Boy game, it's another rebranding like Adventure Island
