| Ninja Gaiden on Master System...What? |
| (1/3) > >> |

So I'm a pretty big Ninja Gaiden fan and I just found out that there's on on the Master System (live under a rock, I know). It seems to be pretty pricey on ebay complete. Has anyone spent some time with it? How does it compare to the offerings on the NES? For that matter, what else am I missing on the Master System? I only have R-Type and Shinobi. I've never really messed with the Master System stuff. This has my interest peaked. |

Looking at some videos, it seems kinda meh. It looks easier than the NES games, and the music sounds terrible. It doesn't seem bad, but a bit underwhelming. At least it looks better than the arcade version :P It's a european-only release though, which makes it understandable that it's a bit of an unknown. But, from what I understand, the master system is region free so there's no trouble in buying a copy now. As for what else you're missing on the Master System... I'm interested to hear that too, since mine barely gets any use (even though I had to repair it since it was broken when I got it). |

Never played Ninja Gaiden but I grew up with a Master System and can offer some suggestions. Here are a few of my favs: 1. Wonder Boy III - this is one of my top games of all time 2. Phantasy Star - dated now but if you want an amazing classic RPG, you can't go wrong 3. Alex Kidd in Miracle World - another great platformer 4. Golden Axe Warrior - the best Zelda clone you'll ever play 5. Psycho Fox - great platformer (fun fact is that Decap Attack for Genesis uses the exact same engine with updated graphics) |

@jobocan Hmm...well I don't have a Master System, just the converter for the Genesis. I would imagine that it would play euro games too but I'll have to check it out. @matt Thanks for the recs. I've been on the look out for Phantasy Star for a while now (at a decent price). I'll check the others out! |

If you looking to just play the game down load an emulator, I know it’s not the same as playing it on the system but it’s not bad. I’m playing Earth Bound for the first time on a Super Nintendo emulator. Once you play it and know you want it then the hunt begins, that’s what I do. |
