Is Phantasy Star 1 the only worthwhile game on this thing? I'm going through the library and it doesn't seem to have many classics or must plays
>>12770607Wonderboy 3 is very good
>>12770607>Is Phantasy Star 1 the only worthwhile game on this thing?Its the only one ill probably ever play considering I only really play RPGs.
>>12770607Golden Axe Warrior is like a more refined Zelda 1. It's just obscure enough that not a lot of people have played it to know this.Also Dragon Crystal if you like roguelikes.
>>12770607Alex Kidd in Shinobi WorldPower Strike I&IIThe Lucky Dime CaperDeep Duck Trouble Castle of Illusion Land of Illusion Legend of Illusion Wonder Boy III
>>12770663Power Strike 1 is better on the MSX where it's called "Aleste". On the master system there's a bit less slowdown but the music is shittier, it's missing the first level, and they changed the only weapon that's fun to use (#5).
>>12770607>I'm going through the library and it doesn't seem to have many classics or must playsWhy does every game need to be a classic or must play? Why not just appreciate the weird games, the decent ports, the games that are fun to play once in a while for short bursts?
>>12770607Far too much of the library is either watered down Arcade ports or watered down versions of games that have vastly superior Genesis/MD ports. It does at least have a way better lineup of light guns games than the NES and the 3D stuff was kinda neat
>>12770672>Why do games need to be goodBecause I'm not a pretentious retard. Now show me some Master System games with good music.
>>12770672Perfectly fine if you live in the 80s and have a master system at home, but forty years down the line you need a reason to dig it up.
>>12770685Ys
>>12770686>you need a reason to dig it upNo you don't, just emulate it.
>>12770794Well I'm not going to emulate it just to play asteroid. I need a good game.
>>12770686Why? If you feel like playing Master System, just pick out some games and try them.
>>12770794Some of these games aren't really playable in emulators.
>>12770685>good musichttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uw33uSesViU
>>12770813It really is tiresome>I want to play this console>tell me what the best games are so I can skip all the others
>>12770813>If you feel like playing Master SystemNo one does this because you haven't shown them the games.
>>12770663also Ninja Gaiden
>>12770637>Golden Axe Warrior is like a more refined ZeldaGolden axe warrior is vastly inferior to Zelda 1Don't have high expectations for this console op it's the worst retro major consoles
Among others already mentioned:Master of Darkness (Exclusive)ShinobiBobble Bobble (arcade perfect)Sonic 1 and 2 are their own excellent games not just portsSpace Harrier has extra stages and bossesAlex Kidd in Miracle World (Exclusive)R-TypeFantasy ZoneZillion (Exclusive)Wonder Boy in Monster WorldColumnsDr. Robotnik Mean MachineLemmingsPenguin Land (exclusive)Ghouls N GhostsStreets of Rage 1 and 2Ecco 1 and 2Golden AxeYeah many are ports but they are as fun now as they were back then
>>12770903>Don't have high expectations for this console op it's the worst retro major consolesIn other words you've never even played it and are still unironically console warring in 2026.
>>12770607Play Enduro Racer. The jumps are crazy.

aka "we have castlevania at home"it's still a good game. more forgiving than the nes castlevanias but still difficult. you're not going to 1cc it your 1st, 2nd or even 3rd time.
The Astérix game is decent
>>12773471There other 2 as well
>>12770607NO STOP YOURE GONNA MAKE *HIM* COME IN HERE
>>12773512?
>>12770607Wonderboy 3 is the second best Search-Action game ever made.There are plenty of other good games on there too.>>12770637>a more refined Zelda 1.It's a shitty zelda 1. The combat is fiddly and frustrating and the dungeon design isn't anywhere near as good.It also came out the same year as zelda 3, so it's competing against zelda 3, not zelda 1 - and compared to zelda 3 it's absolutely pathetic.
>>12773827"HIM" is a fictional meme.Just like Alex the Kidd.
>>12770607Golden Axe Warrior is a more based version of Zelda and an excellent game. Don't listen to these Zeldafags gaslighting it
>>12770607>Is Phantasy Star 1 the only worthwhile game on this thing?yes, but only if we're being generous about what we consider "worthwhile".
>>12774401>Search-Actionwillyvania
>>12770837I have ~4000 roms to choose from, if I try to play everything Ill end up missing all of the actually good games.
>>12775090Oh fuck nintendo derangement syndrome is here too? Lmao what the fuck is it with you faggots
>>12770864I played the GG one and it's good. I hear the SMS one you die in one hit, but it's balanced to be much easier than the GG one. I'm looking forward to playing it and seeing how it compares.
>>12770607Phantasy Star is easily the best but it's worth checking out the Sonic games, Castle of Illusion, and Alex Kidd in Shinobi World
>I'm going through the library and it doesn't seem to have many classics or must playswelcome to basically every Sega console. you now know why they flopped out in the 2000's.
>>12777307Master system is excellent. Praise Allah.
