Was it too girly for the cool, boyish audience of Mega Drive?
It came out the same year as the Saturn and that's what they wanted to push at the time for the English speaking regions.
Derp.

Monster World IV is my favorite Genesis game.
Wish it got more love.

At least he has some sort of cult following in Japan, but it's a shame the guy isn't working on videogame anymore, he's got that distinctive late 90's style that I can't help but love.

it is my favorite as well, and also my first actual Mega Drive import game I had, so I have quite a personal story with it.

We got Phantasy Star and Alisa Dragoon no issue. Honestly I don't think Sega care about that issue so much. I have no idea why we didn't get this game honestly

never even heard of this game til i saw it on the PSN. got it on a whim and loved it. never even played the other monster world games but I heard they were a lot different so i didnt bother
At least it was a big inspiration for Shantae.

If it was released here it couldn't use the "Wonder Boy" name

They could've edited out her tits and cut out the ponytail from the sprite to make it look like a dude.

Sega was pretty dumb during 1994-1997
They should have done a lot of things different.
