The most interesting aspect about the SEGA Master System is the bizarro library that exists as an answer to the Nintendo Entertainment System.
The SMS answer to Super Mario Bros. is Alex Kidd.
The SMS answer to Zelda is Golden Axe Warrior.
The SMS answer to Metroid is Zillion.
The SMS answer to Castlevania is Kenseiden.
The SMS answer to Double Dragon is Double Dragon. That is, same title but totally different game.
The SMS answer to Final Fantasy is Phantasy Star. And Phantasy Star was actually the highlight of the SMS—the best reason to get the console.
