cant believe i forgot how much action fighter surprised me back in the day i remember seeing the cover in the catalouge and thought thats all i can get out of whats left of my christmas money.... really surprised me as its one of my fav games now and it still surprising me now as i always thought it was a magnifying glass and just found out its a wing mirror on the cover I've just pulled out my copy of action fighter and asked the kids what is on the cover. They agreed it was a magnifying glass. They thought I was tricking them when I told them it's actually a wing mirror. Early box art was very basic. i thought someone was winding me up when i first heard it was a wing mirror lol

I definitely thought it was a magnifying glass as well. Only now that you guys brought it up did it dawn on me lmao.
On subject, I'd go with zillion. My dad came home with 4 games one time after a business trip, (all bargain bin if I had to guess). Man Sega sure didn't do them selves any favors with the "microwaves" for the cover art. Based on the terrible cover the brilliance of the game really was a surprise.

Home Alone is actually really good, once you figure out the controls. Yeah and this is the best version I've played for sure. The NES version is just terrible.

All of the games that have been mentioned are great shouts. I would say Desert Strike surprised me. It's pretty in-depth and addictive once you get into it. And considering it was essentially a 16-bit game, they did an excellent conversion for the SMS.

Another game that surprise me positive , is my hero Just recently get it to my collection, and start playing it. I think it is fantastic how a simple game like that ( run, jump, hit, run, hit, run😉) Can be so entertaining and challenging

Psychic World, hands down. One of my favorites...I've got something special planned for this one on my YouTube channel. As for a game that surprised me...Dragon the Bruce Lee story. Its got its issues but over all it's a pretty go on game and I enjoyed it enough.

One title I can think of that surprised me was World Grand Prix with a track editor making it even more fun, maybe some of the arcade ports for being close to the original like Marble Madness but I think my second nomination would be Ghoul`s n Ghosts for the shop feature.
