   ***//Super Star Soldier//** (also on: Wii VC)
+  ***//Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap//** (also on: GG, Master System, Wii VC) - [[http://forums.selectbutton.net/viewtopic.php?t=31937|forum thread]]
+    *Loki Laufeyson: Commonly said to be the best Master System game of all, a title it lives up to. It's a great 8-bit semi-[[genre:metroidvania|metrovania]]. Being a //[[game:wonderboy_series|Wonderboy]]// game, it probably has at least three other names it's known by.
+    *haze: Whenever people fondly remember //[[game:zelda_ii_the_adventure_of_link|Zelda II]]// or //[[game:castlevania_ii_simons_quest|Castlevania II]]//, I recommend to them to play //Wonder Boy III//. It feels like a more polished version of what those games were attempting to do, while also shorter and more concise. None of the excess weight.
+    *username: I picked up the Sega Ages Wonderboy collection on a whim a few years ago and while I wasn't in love with the earlier games, //Monster's Trap// was pretty excellent. Very odd series progression where you go from a standard platformer to a basic adventure game to a weird scrolling shooter to a very charming [[genre:metroidvania|Metrovania]] but hey, it worked.\\ As odd as it sounds, I ended up playing through the included [[hardware:game_gear|Game Gear]] version over the [[hardware:master_system|SMS]] version as for whatever reason it felt just a bit tighter and a bit more intimate due to the reduced viewing area (the town is a few blocks shorter because of this and I think it helps).
