I quite like After Burner on the SMS… I find it a solid and fun game - I do not play it expecting the arcade game and rate and enjoy it on its own merits.
however, one popular title I cannot get into, Space Harrier… It seems to have issue with framerate, choppy movement and controls, and it just end up being too difficult to play and overcome these shortcomings… I am able to play well beyond the issues of other games such as Out Run, Thunder Blade, After Burner, Galaxy Force… and then Space Harrier 3-D plays infinitely better in every way so it is impossible for me to step down to playing the original Space Harrier on the SMS… for playing the original, I will enjoy playing on the Turbo Grafx-16 or Sega Saturn (with the Mission Stick!)
I like most anything on the Sega Master System, but there are a few I do find sub-par…
Great sports games
F-16 Fighting Falcon
Alex Kidd in High Tech World
Alf
Altered Beast (terrible, choppy controls)
Vigilante (horrid controls, poor collision detection) - but I have a twisted enjoyment playing this game to overcome its shortcomings, and have been able to 1cc it!
