    Nice video bro! I used to have this game &amp; many more back in the day. But revisiting this one&apos;s going to give me nightmares! Haha!

    Looks like an 8-bit Nioh long before Nioh. &nbsp;Nice vid. &nbsp;Also, I figure Alex Kidd might be there because Sega wanted him to be their mascot before Sonic arrived.

    In the UK we had the same sh1tty box art on Sega games. I never had a Master System (until years later when I bought one 2nd hand for £2 but I&apos;ve no idea what happened to that) but at the time I remember thinking all the games must be cheap crap because of that ugly box art. I was buying games for my C64 at the time and didn&apos;t know anything about the MS- none of my friends had one either.<br><br> Looking back it&apos;s easy to see the MS was usually closer to 16bit quality at the time but I couldn&apos;t have afforded the £20+ games

    Wow, so here is one game where fm isnt preferable. Kenseiden is on my top 5 with PS, Ys, and wonderboy 2 &amp; 3. Its criminally underrated. I was incrediby exited when i heard Kenseiden had a spiritual sequel for megadrive on Itch, but unfortunately its bad.
