Cross Model Games Compatibility

[mastersystemmoss]

Hey guys/girls! I have a Master System II and have recently got it working again and need help with a few things.
• I live in Australia so guessing it’s a PAL model - but not sure what region (is it just Aus region?) as I want to keep collecting playable games so info here would be very helpful.
• Also wondering whether original Master System (Model 1?) games work on a Master System II?
• And also if the controllers will do the same?

Thanks for any help!

SMS games are compatible worldwide and it doesn't matter what model you are using SMS 1 or 2, apart from Japanese cartridges which are a different shape. Controllers work on all Master Systems too. Some people prefer to use a Mega Drive Controller with the SMS, but only button B&C work on the MS.

I would recommend you buy an Everdrive, as it's good to collect for the Master System, but trying to get certain rarer games can be extremely expensive!

I was not aware of that with the SMS. That is cool.
