Commendable choice on Sonic for the Master System, I’ve got a lot of love and a lot of time for that game. I’m fairly sure it was the first console game I ever played after finally making the leap from the Commodore 64. Naturally, I’m not counting all those times Alex Kidd loads up even though you could’ve sworn that cartridge was in there as far as it was gonna go!
Definitely a tough choice for Day Two. For me, it was a toss-up between Earthworm Jim 2 and Sonic 2 on the Mega Drive. In the end, it has to be Sonic 2. Everything that made the first game so great, plus the ability for a second person to help out with Tails and the versus mode made for pretty much the perfect game. Many weekends went by playing Sonic 2, and it was probably the catalyst for my sister and I going from mortal enemies to tolerant of each other’s existence.
Still never completed it though… Rumour has it Metal Sonic is beatable. I think it’s a damnable lie!

Yeah, Alex the Kidd was a pain for not loading up! Sonic was a good introduction to the Master System, mine was Teddy Boy so you did better than me!
Lots of people love Sonic 2…I trust their judgement but I haven’t played a great deal of it myself. Most of my Sonic 2 experience is of the brilliant 2 player mode, but one day I’ll go back and properly play the one player mode!
