I tried playing A D&D (sega cd) and can't figure out how to fight. I guess that's what a manual is for.

Nice games, Galam. I've had some good times with Magmax and the 4-player cart and one can never have too many versions of Dungeon Master.

I had a lot of fun playing Eye of the Beholder on the SNES last Summer. I'd recommend trying a gnome cleric/thief if you haven't started already. Single-class thieves are virtually useless, but it's nice to have the lockpicking ability to avoid the hassle of finding absolutely every key in the dungeon. Cleric/thieves advance much faster than other multiclass characters, almost as fast as a single-class wizard, and make for an interesting mix of healer/archerer

Nice! That is one of my favorite games on the Neo. It is challenging, but once you master the sommersault maneuver, the game really opens up for you. :)

One of the few complaints I have against NAM is the inability to continue during the final boss battle.

Got my first taste of 8-Bit Sega goodness. Looking forward to exploring the world of the Master System. :) Any game recommendations?

Chany, there are a lot of SMS treasures! Be on the lookout for R-Type (second best conversion), Golvelius, the Wonder Boy series, Sonic, Rastan, Golden Axe Warrior, Alex Kidd in Shinobi World, Shinobi, and there are many more I can't remember. Happy gaming and get yourself an actual console soon! :D

yeah dont let rastan for pce throw you off, the sms version is pretty cool. I like Laser Ghost a lot, it's one of the coolest console light gun games EVER. If I still have some loose sms game you can have them, I'll check later.

Be wary of the final boss on (NAM 1975) he has a pattern,that if you don't get down then it's game over.

Welcome to the SMS! There are lots of good games, but I'd recommend spending a good 2-4 weeks with just Alex Kidd to make sure you get the full experience. And be sure to get some long composite + AC cords so you can set the console under your coffee table and hit the pause button with your toe!

If you are like me (enjoy platformers), then you MUST GET Wonderboy for SMS. Still one of my faves on the system. Yes, I still play it, even though I've played related kin (on other platforms) for at least 8 million hours (Adventure Island on NES, for example).

Thanks for those recommendations. :) Hopefully sometime later I will pick up a console later. But the Power Base Converter is so nice since it hardly takes up any room and I can still use Master System controllers on my genny to still get that authentic Master System experience.

Rastan is definitely on my list of games to get. It looks similar to Legendary Axe. I'll keep Laser Ghost in mind as I enjoy light gun games too. There are actually several UK games I have my eye on like Alien Storm and the Sonics.

Haha! Might not be such a bad idea, especially since I have to access the menu to use power ups in Alex Kidd.

I love me some platforming action. Although I own their ports on the turbo and NES, I may pick some of these up just to compare.
