Why are sega master system caes/carts so ugly?
wiggy:
I hate that damned grid pattern. It make the games feel like a math problem...
TSOLfan:
My favorite part of the Sega Master System games are the manuals, in that, it seems that the same artist drew all of the art for the enemies across a vast majority of the games (for better or worse).
Ghost House had some awesome enemy artwork :)

Captain Silver also had some pretty humorous enemy art (dare I say, the Banana King), and some of Kenseiden's was downright terrifying (though, I always laugh at the Child Scarer).
SasoriSoren:
I love the Master System cases. They are basic and they fit the sort of basicness of the console itself. I mean, take a look at a Master System Cart. Not a whole lot going on there, so why does the cover have to be so extravagantly awesome? It would be like changing the black box games on NES.
Maybe I am rambling. I dunno. I just like the way they are.

The black box games with the pixelart? Yeah, check out the European/Hong Kong/Japanese original versions. They actually use artwork and they're always a million times better.
just look how much better the Hong Kong SMB1 is.
