come on! go for it! I want Sega CD, 32X, Saturn, and Dreamcast (if possible) on there too! I can’t get enough old school games and it’s much better to have it all in one box than having to switch around the hook ups to over 20 different systems.

And Nintendo shouldn’t neglect Virtual Boy and Game Boy. I find a lot of non-working Game Boy Color Cartridges, and Virtual Boy is a hassle to hook up. It would be nice to see the Virtual Boy version of Wario Land on a TV screen rather than peering into the tiny visor. Mario Clash and Mario’s Tennis for VB were fun too and Star Fox fans might like too play Red Alarm.

Been a long time Master System collector and there’s a wealth of great games out there. But it is one of the cheapest formats to collect for, go on get out there and get the originals it’s a much more rewarding than a digital download. Nothing can beat the challenge of hunting down that elusive cart for the right price and having all that wonderful box artwork on display in your games room.

Games of note:

Alex Kidd in Shinobi World
Shinobi
Wonderboy 2+3
R-Type
Psycho Fox
Populous
New Zealand Story
Gauntlet
Power Strike
Choplifter
Golden Axe
Cloud Master
Bubble Bobble
Operation Wolf
Rastan
Zillion 1 + 2
Afterburner
Alex Kidd in Miracle World
Ghouls and Ghosts
Etc………

With the new Rambo movie out, maybe we’ll see it on the VC. XD

Theres no reason to not by Master System games as long as they are good quality. So yes, of course.

By the way, in response to a previous post, yeah…Golden Axe Warrior was an awesome Zelda clone. It’s seriously a much better game than The Legend of Zelda, as sacrilegeous as that sounds. More color, more items…same enemies, albeit looking entirely different (same attack patterns, from what I can remember). I love that game and would actually love to own it, but I’m not willing to pay the ridiculously high price that it commands on eBay.

Nice. I’ll be getting Golden Axe Warrior and Phantasy Star, assuming that either comes to VC. Honestly, I’m surprised that Sega hadn’t offered GG/MS games from the very beginning. They should also offer the GG Shinobi games, which were nothing short of awesome.

And I’ve always wanted to play Defenders of Oasis. Is it really as good as I’m hoping?
