Episode Notes:

1. I used Kega Fusion for the Paddle Control games. Mega SG for everything else.

2. As time went on, some of these appeared in Brazil on Tec Toy's reissues. They were, to my knowledge, built into the system and were not stand alone physical releases as they were Japan.

3, As I mentioned, there are a few adventure games that were never released outside of Japan. I can't read them to play them, so they were not shown here.

4. Some of these games are getting really expensive. Solomon's Key and Rygar are approaching $100 these days.

5. The Paddle Control only has a handful of games that use it. I own one but it doesn't work anymore.

6. Sega eventually rebranded the Mark III in Japan as the Master System. It had the FM Module built in.

7. Opa Opa is often said to be Sega's first mascot. I don't agree with this line of thinking. Opa Opa was only used in mascot capacity in Japan, so he was only Sega of Japan's mascot. Sega's first true company/world wide mascot was Alex Kidd.

8. Rygar does NOT have FM support. I had assumed both Tecmo games had it. Solomon's Key is the only one of the two that has it.
