Japanese Master System compatibility

[brianvgplayer]

Where can I find a list of US/EU games that won't work on a JP SMS?

From what I tried, these are the games I couldn't get working with the Tototek SMS-Mark III adapter on SMS:

-Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap (blank screen, a bit puzzled on this one since I have seen the video of it working with the gender adapter, though I read at another forum that someone else had the same problem)
-Wanted (red screen)
-Missile Defense 3D (works, but doesn't recognize the light phaser)
-Rescue Mission (ditto)
-Bubble Bobble (blank screen, heard this may just be a finicky one that takes a few tries to get working)
-Hang On/Safari Hunt (various glitches, may be a problem with the cart itself since I have to put it in a certain way on the regular SMS to get it working, though it works without glitches on the regular SMS)

As with the PBC on a switched Genesis 1 in Japanese mode, these games work with the Genesis controller on the JP SMS:

Wonder Boy in Monster Land
Bomber Raid
Penguin Land (terrible FM sound for this one, though)

I'm maintaining a list of incompatibilities on SMSPower. I just started it a few weeks ago though so we'll just have to wait for more people to provide info

I know, but I posted this here as well since I want to get more information about why WBIII isn't working. I really want to play that one on my JP SMS.

Has anyone ever tried figuring out whether the compatibility problem with Wonder Boy 3 is hardware or software based? I'm assuming it would run just fine on an export system modded with a Japanese BIOS.
