Master System Confirmed for US Virtual Console

By Jorge Ba-oh 26.03.2008 4

Sega's first home-console in the West, Mater System, will be heading to the Virtual Console service.

According to MTV Multiplayer, the Wii's virtual console service will soom be updated with Sega's first Western entry into the home-console market - the Master System SG-1000 Mark III.

"WonderBoy" and "Fantasy Zone" will be available for the rock-bottom price of 400 Wii Points (100 points cheaper than formerly thought), but they have yet to be dated.

The system gave birth other classics like the Alex Kidd series, Ninja Gaiden and Wonderboy.

It's strange to see a console that once was designed to compete with Nintendo's first Western release appearing on Nintendo's fifth home console 20 years later.
