    Default What are the TG16 and SMS's best games?

    I recently picked up a TG-16 and SMS. I am looking to start collecting games for both. I am curious to hear what people think are the best games for both. SMS games can include pal too. And if you are looking to sell some games in bulk let me know. Thanks, Scott

    Make it a point to get Splatterhouse and Ninja Spirit (TG16) at the very least.

    I'm sure there are threads about the best games for these systems in the Classic Discussions forum... go have a look!

    Fantasy Zone 2 - The Tears Of Opa Opa
    Kensedien
    California Games
    Mickey Mouse - Castle Of Illusion
    Alex Kidd In Miracle World
    Sonic Chaos (the best 8-bit Sonic game, in my opinion)
    Psycho Fox
    Wonder Boy in Monsterland and Dragon's Trap
    Outrun
    Power Strike (Aleste)
    R-Type
    Sagaia
    Ys
    Zillion

    Adding European (and Brazilian) releases certainly makes the Master System's library a lot bigger, but it adds very few high qaulity games, in my opinion. We got most of the very best SMS games here in the U.S., Europe just got a lot of trash and licensed stuff that we didn't. There were a few good Game Gear ports released only in Europe or Brazil, though, such as Sonic Chaos. It's also often just easier to find the European release of a particular game than the domestic version.

    I don't know the TurboGrafx library wellenough to recommend much, but I will say that many of the same games appeared on both systems, such as the Wonder Boy games (renamed for the Turbo, but the same games), Ys and some of the shooters, so you may want to look at both versions before deciding which one to get. Same goes for the Genesis, if you have one, a lot of later SMS games were downports of Genesis releases, so you may simply want to get the Genesis version.

    Alex Kidd in Shinobi World (one of my favorites) is rare in the US, but pretty common in Europe (as I recall). There's a example where importing will serve your interests well.

    As far as I'm concerned, there are plenty of fine SMS games that did not make it to the US, including:

    Asterix (SMS exclusive)
    Asterix and the Secret Mission
    Buggy Run (SMS exclusive, rare)
    Sagaia
    Renegade (ported by Natsume, best version anywhere)
    Assault City (SMS exclusive, make sure it's the Light Phaser version)
    Line of Fire
    Power Strike II (SMS exclusive, rare)
    Master of Darkness
    Ninja Gaiden (SMS exclusive)
    Air Rescue
    Bram Stoker's Dracula
    Bonanza Bros.
    Dragon Crystal
    Jurassic Park
    Land of Illusion
    The Lucky Dime Caper
    Deep Duck Trouble
    Tecmo World Cup '93 (if you like old arcade-y soccer games)
    Wimbledon II (if you like old arcade-y tennis games, rare)

    Also:
    Sonic the Hedgehog (I personally don't care for any of the 8-bit Sonics after the first one)
    Rambo/Secret Commando
    Most Light Phaser games
