Sega SG-1000

[Dyne]

i never knew of this version of hero. i love that game.

No mention of the SF-7000?

SG-1000 was pretty cool, even if it was basically a coleco.

Penguin Land is defiantely to most notable original game on the system, but Dragon Wang is worth mentioning too. Oh yeah, and I really liked Safari Race.

[NeoZeedeater]

Yeah, I didn't bother mentioning SC-3000 add-ons and peripherals like the SF-7000 and SR-1000. If there's anything cool to mention about them, please do. I don't really know much about them. Do any games require the SF-7000 to run?

wonder boy = hudson's adventure island?

[NeoZeedeater]

Yes, Adventure Island is Hudson's bastardized version of it.

[Ashen Victor]

master higgins would skateboard and throw an axe at you for that!

but that's interesting since i thought the hudson version started it all. makes me want to go back and play it right now too... and i just might!

I remember always hating Hudson's Adventure Island because it came after and blantantly ripped off Wonder Boy, AND looked worse, AND because it was on Nintendo, no one knew about the original WB and always thought Adventure Island was the original. "It's like Wonder Boy!" "Oh you mean Adventure Island?" "NO! Wonder Boy damnit!"
And then Sega completely changed future Wonder Boy games from having anything to do with the original. :P

That reminds me of a user game review at some site that knocked Tactics Ogre for being a FF Tactics clone.

I was planning on doing a thread about the SG-1000, but I decided to wait for NeoZeed to do it instead.

I guess it was a good idea
