Mickey is usually well-known for his quality outings on Sega Consoles. The Illusion games are a fan favorite, but the third installment on the Game Gear began to show the series’ age.

Speedball (Master System)

Everything that made the Genesis version so good is missing, so there’s no reason to bother with this version.
