Just been having some fun tonight playing the various Alex Kidd games,that brings back some memories of hours and hours of enjoyable gaming sessions, the only two Alex Kidd games i owned many moons ago were AK in Miracle World & AK in Shinobi World and they were great fun.

Checked out the game from the link you posted Brad was fun game to play.

Good call I never really liked any of the other Alex Kidd games

Miracle world is bright and cartoony with loads of charm

Shinobi world is a great little platformer with bags of humour

It suprises me that Sega never thought to go back to this character, there's really a fan base out there to buy a new game

We all know why! Alex Kidd was dropped as Sega`s main character because of a certain Blue Hedgehog,why do you think Sonic Hero`s & Sonic Mega Collection was released on most modern platforms...because Sonic has such a big fan base even all these years on.

Sega are no longer in the market for releasing consoles,it`s only a developer now,maybe if enough people e-mail Sega Europe & America with requests for a new Alex Kidd game they might consider it,got to be worth a try.

I like Alex the Kidd and spent many months completing it, but I must admit that lil blue hedgehog did steal my heart, and its the only cart I have for my SEGA master sys. Sonic was one of the best retro games ever, and I dont care how it looks or works on later systems, it kixx on the master system and its the only reason I still keep mine. Smile

yep, i have to agree - sonic was the best on the sms, the megadrive had much improved graphics, but thats not what its about!

hey by the way tomz, ive got loads of sms games if you wanted to swap for something?
