Popular in the UK and Brazil, I never knew anyone who had one here in Greece. What are some of your favorite games and memories from it? It could be any iteration of the console.

They got rid of the card slot, the device was smaller, and it had an inbuilt game (Alex the Kidd in Miracle World in my case, although it seems some had Sonic instead)
There even was am even smaller version called the Master System III which I think only was released in Brazil.
The original Mark III was what would be the Master System in the west. The Mark 1 in this case was the Sega SG-1000 which had a very limited release outside of Japan (and came out the same day as the Famicom, so always had an uphill battle). The mark 2 was an iteration om that. As was the Mark 3 and the later Mega Drive actually.
When you say Mark III was the Master System in the West, do you mean the Japanese Master System (which is the Mark III with its peripherals built-in)? Or was the OG Mark III called Master System in the West? This is all so confusing, haha. But I’m looking at the Japanese SEGA website and it’s starting to make a lot more sense. Super interesting stuff.
yes, the whole Master System name was because it was supposed to be the “Master” System, and you could add peripherals to it. The Japanese Mark III was the Master System
