Something about Star Master made it easy for me to imagine a running story in my head while I was playing, which made the game expand beyond its function. The boxing game was fun, too... and of course, Space Invaders! _________________ Matthew Wayne Selznick Chief Evangelist http://www.retroland.com

I've even bought games for it recently. It's my all-time favorite system. I've downloaded a few games onto my Wii that I never had as a kid, but wish I had. _________________ Oh Gloria, with hair like granite.

Most people agree, this was the system of our golden time. Games like Chrono Trigger, Mario World, Yoshi's Island, Contra 3, etc.. were among my top favorites _________________ www.RetroTank.com
