I. Introduction

Why the foreign SMS FAQ? The Master System has always been one of my favorite video game systems. I've had a complete Master System collection for years and have finished probably 3/4 of the titles. So, when I found out there were games that weren't released over here, needless to say, I was interested! I started searching for information and found a few sites on the Web that had some information, but really, information of the foreign variety was extremely hard to come by. So, I started compiling bits and pieces of information and met a few cool foreign guys that also had interests in the system and this is the results!

And to those who say "SC-3000 and SG-1000 aren't SMS related", I say they are. But, just for you, I've placed them in their own little section.

Note: I have no desire to compete with Jeff Bogumil's awesome SMS FAQ, so I am trying to stick with relevant Foreign information wherever possible!

Note 2: Join the SMS mailing list by writing a note with the words "subscribe" in the title to: "smslist-list-request@segasages.com"

II. The Systems

A. The SG-1000:
The first system that Sega released (1983, approximately), available in Japan and China and sold for approximately 15,000 yen. It runs on a 4mbit processor with 64k ram and can play 2 musical instruments at once. It came packed with ???????.

B. The SC-3000 / SC-3000H:
Sega's second system, released in 1983 and sold for approximately 29,800 yen or 690,000 and 435,000 Lire or $329 Australian and the SC-3000H sold for 33,800 yen or between 790,000 and 499,000 Lire. I know these systems were released in Japan, Australia, all over Europe and China. In Australia, the system was marketed as "John Sands SEGA SC-3000". System stats and all information I know follows.

Molded in Black with black keys, except for special keys which were either yellow or gray. The system has a green LED on the front that would indicate if the unit is getting power or not.

Microprocessor: NEC 780C (a clone of the Z80A chip) at 4 MHz
RAM: 16Kb / 32Kb (SC-3000H)
Video RAM: 16Kb
ROM: 18 Kb or 32Kb (not sure which is correct)
Sound: 6 voice on 2.5 octaves
Screen text: 40x25 (16 colors) and 32x24 (?? Colors)
Screen resolution : 256x192 (16 colors)
Text characters dimension : 8 x 8 pixels
Max. number of sprites on screen at once : 32 (if monochromatic)
Keyboard: 64 rubber touch key buttons, typewriter style (QWERT)
Power Supply Numbers:
- 220V CA
- 9V CC
- 12 A
Ports :
- 1 Printer (DIN 7 pins)
- 1 Cartridge
- 1 Cassette (for cassette based games)
- Composite video (DIN 8 pins)
- 2 Joystick (Type D9)

Measurements:
- Width 353mm
- Depth 210 mm
- Height 46 mm

All games for this system are made by SEGA (which has been proven to be the death of many systems), at least all that I've been able to find. When the MSX standard was released, it killed this system off, because the MSX was much more powerful and a lot less expensive. There is a second version of the SC-3000, with a mechanical keyboard and 32K of RAM called the "SC-3000H". It is assumed that everything but the keyboard and RAM are the same and the game plays all SC-3000 games.

Some rumors said that a Colecovision adapter was supposed to be released, but never made it as far as anyone can tell.

Want to play the SC-3000 games on a non SC-3000 system? Well, they work with *some* Telegames Personal Arcade systems! I've heard stories that Telegames ruined some of the cart ports on purpose, but have nothing to substantiate that, and they work fine on my TPA!

C: SG-1000-2

This system was marketed after the death of the SC-3000 and before the release of the Mark III. Nothing else is known about this system at this time.

D. FG-1000

Very little is know about this system. There is a price of 19,800 yen listed in a magazine (where much of the SC-3000 information came from). Other than that, no information is known.

E. The Mark III:
Released in 1984, this is the first version of the Master System. It has the same system specs as the Master System with a different design. The system is molded in white, and has the cart slot and card slot on the right hand side. It uses the same power supply, controllers and A/V cables as the American Master System. The controllers (which remind me of the first SMS controllers, with the screw on joysticks) fit neatly on each side of the unit in molded holding places and are molded in the same color as the unit. In addition to the regular means of playing (RF/AV), this unit had a peripheral that allowed you to play via remote control! See more on the peripheral below.

F. The Master System:
Information on the Master System is available in the regular SMS FAQ. I've included it here because it may have been released in foreign areas with different pack-ins.

Master System pack-ins include:
Alex Kidd: Miracle World,
Astro Warrior/Safari Hunt (Gun pack),
Hang-On/Astro Warrior (No Gun pack),
Marksman Shooting/Trap Shooting/Safari Hunt (Gun pack),
Missile Defense 3-D (SegaScope system)
Rambo (Gun pack)

G. The Master System 2:

Information on the Master System 2 is available in the regular SMS FAQ. I've included it here because it was released in foreign areas with different pack-ins.

MS2 pack-ins include:
Alex Kidd in Miracle World
Sonic the Hedgehog
Alex Kidd in Miracle World & Sonic the Hedgehog
Lion King
Shinobi and Global Defense (possibly in Australia?)

H. The Master System 3:
The newest version of the Master System, released in Brazil only is about the same size as the MS2. The system is molded in Black and has come packaged with 2 games, Alex Kidd in Miracle World and Sonic the Hedgehog. This is the only version of the Master System that is currently sold in the world!

MS3 pack-ins include:
Alex Kidd in Miracle World,
Sonic the Hedgehog

I. The MS Super Compact:
Released in Brazil only, this version of the Master System is slightly larger than the Game Gear. In addition to it's smaller size, this version allowed remote control play in addition to play via an RF Switchbox! The remote control broadcasts on channel 12 or 13. In addition, the version of the MS Super Compact with #1 below was molded in PINK!

The MS Super Compact came packed with several different titles:
1. A game for girls entitled Monica no Castelo do Dragao (a Brazilian cartoon character). This game, I have been told is Wonderboy in Monsterland with a girl lead character! In addition, a boy's version of this game was made.
2. Sonic The Hedgehog
3. Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (packed in the system's Rom area)
4. Alex Kidd in Miracle World
5. A soccer game (special pack for the World Cup)

VI. Game Incompatibilities

So far, everything I've gotten from foreign lands has worked fine, with the exception of the following title(s):

New Zealand Story. This title comes up with garbled graphics on both the SMS 1 and SMS 2. I've heard a rumor that it works with the Power Base Converter (attached, of course to the Genesis), so I need to try that and see if it works.

VII. Where can you get the games?

You might try writing to some of the people in my help list… You may find more than you bargained for! :)
