Hey gang. I felt like this needed it's own thread. We've poured a lot of work into this and I'd hate to see anyone miss out!
If you head on over to SegaMasterSystem.com, you'll notice we've released our latest short film, "Master System of Darkness". Just in time for Halloween!

We actually shot this one about a year ago when we were first creating content for the site. I'm very happy to finish this project (so are my actors!) and release it at a more seasonally appropriate time. :-)
Of course, I hope you enjoy it! Feedback always appreciated and we look forward to hearing what you have to say about the film.

Ohya, it's Halloween so I remastered my review of the legendary Splatterhouse for the TG-16.
We're looking for some feedback! Haven't got much lol. Anyone see our little film?
This video was a very enjoyable watch!
Keep it up.
The Master System is a great console a lot of North American retro gamers never got into thanks to the iron fisted dominance of the NES. I'm a big fan of the system, and love to see people showcase its games.
However, I feel like you should have mentioned that this game is an uncommon European exclusive so people know they can't simply go to their local retro game store and expect to find a copy. Also it is worth mentioning that the Master System is 99% region free, so PAL Master System games including Master of Darkness play just fine on a North American Master System.

Thanks guys, really!
Thanks. I felt that the majority of our audience would know this already, and, rather than be overly informative, I focused on just entertainment value. It's a reasonable fact you point out though. However, if I did make mention of this, I'd have to do the same in every video that featured a Euro game, and that could get a little repetitive.
A new series we're doing over at SegaMasterSystem.com. Kind of like the Master System equivalent to Screw Attack's "Video Game Vault", only with our own little spin. Of course this being the first in the series, we'd love to hear your feedback. Been really busy with new content as you've probably noticed. We really do appreciate any and all feedback as we continue to build this site. Any recommendations or ideas on how we can keep growing would be awesome. Thanks!
Holy crap man, nice!
I really enjoyed the video, it's basically what I want to see from this sort of thing. Covering relatively obscure games, getting into what they're about, and telling me if it's worth checking out. Good that you're not limiting yourself to NTSC releases, though that just comes with the territory of the SMS I guess.
Liked what you did at the end, was really helpful and haven't seen it done much.
You've earned yourself a new subscriber.
This one had me confused for a long time because I remembered the title, but there's an arcade game with the same title but totally different gameplay. I really like the protection lightgun game idea, but unfortunately this one isn't playable unless you have a SMS lightgun. The control pad style input just doesn't work well.
I'll admit I don't know much about the Master System's more obscure aspects, so I really do appreciate these. Looking forward to more.
I reviewed Monster In My Pocket for the NES for some late Halloween Kinda Special:
Just finished up a new video in which we take a look at classic Sega coin-ops and the Master System ports that followed. I've always wanted to do something on Alien Syndrome, a game that despite being ported to MANY consoles, always seemed more charming on the Master System. I'm still trying to fine tune the format for these vids... feedback would be great! Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks guys.
Any shot if doing a transcript version for those for some reason can not do the video?
You guys are sorta doing what I wanted to do once I finished my USA set of games. I was going to sort of review them in alphabetical order.
Though Alien Syndrome is a weird one because out of all the ports of the game out there, the SMS one is the least like the arcade.
COMPLETED MY USA SMS SET!!!!
