A buddy of mine that lives in the UK recently came to visit and brought me a small pile of non-US Master System games, including Micro Machines. Only problem is, I'm having a helluva time getting it to work.
It totally doesn't work on my Power Base Converter, nor my Game Gear w/Master Gear Converter (black screen on both). It will start up on my Master System, showing the "Codemaster's" logo, but it's only a blue screen after that (and not the typical 'no signal' blue screen, just a blue SMS screen). I can hear some music, but get no picture.
Can anybody in the US confirm if this title works on an NTSC system? I know that Codemasters sometimes uses some funky stuff in their games, and wonder if this isn't just some kind of wacko compatibility issue. The other 7 games he brought work just fine.
So is it just me, or do other people have this problem?
