Editing SG-1000

[[File:SG-1000 logo.png|450px|center]]

The SG-1000 is Sega's first attempt at a video game console. Despite being a rather powerful machine for its day, it was a victim of horrible timing: it came out the exact same day as the [[NES|Famicom]], which almost immediately took over the console market. Because of this, the SG-1000 had a very limited release (only Japan and New Zealand), and its game library remained relatively small. The main problem with the SG-1000 was its controller: it was clunky and unresponsive, and replacing it was a huge headache, since it was hardwired into the console.

Since this system bombed so hard, Sega was quick to work in a successor, the Mark III aka [[Master System]].

|Beat'em Up
|Nice little ''Game of Death'' style Beat'em Up, where you wander around a dark tower and kick the crap out of many badguys. It's similar to Irem's Kung-Fu, but less linear.

Had a sequel on the Master System called ''Kung Fu Kid''.

|Navigate through a maze, where Sindbad (no it's not a typo) must collect pieces of a map to find a treasure while avoiding pirates. Unique in that each maze has two tiers separated by stairs. It also got an Arcade release which is hard as balls.
