Why no PC Engine version? That was an 8 bit machine and by far the best 8 bit version out there!

@xtremecoasters the pc engine did have a 8 bit cpu but had16 bit graphics thats why i didnt include it.

Good video though its not really fair pitting the Speccy etc up against the Master System. I mean c'mon, compared to the Speccy, C64 and Amstrad the master System was a God damn Sexual tyranasaurus! I went to the Master system after the Speccy and before my SNES and honestly it was so good for 8bit. Had some cracking titles, Alien 3, Mortal Kombat series, sonic. It seriously kicked butt and is arguably IMO the bestest 8Bit computer ever made, even beating NES! Obviously nothing beats Mario 3...

@MrDalley Look on the bright side, at least with the Amstrad version you got the additional tape with the arcade music on to play in you Escort XR3i around town, and pretend you owned a Ferrari?

Oh....just me then.

@thesman32 A dual 16bit GPU no less. It would be a bit unfair pitching that against a spectrum, but on the other hand, they are all of the same era.

the home computer versions did come with the arcade version's OST. US Gold packaged them that way so fans could drive along to the origenal arcade versions of the songs instead of a puny tripple voice square wave.

c-64 version has the upper hand here even if the sms one is more colorful.

@Darkmoor9 I bought the amstrad version for £10 after loving the arcade, i have since, in the last 20 years, never been as disapointed or upset! :)
