Man, I was a huge sucker for anything 3D back in the day (even as simple as Wolfenstein 3D)! I wanted to use a Virtual Boy soooo bad, but I never got to. Makes sense Sega had one too, but I didn't know they had something like this, and so superior to the Virtual Boy in many ways (since the virtual boy was only monochrome 3-layer parallax) Space Harrier 3D is the perfect implementation for something like this, but yeah, that would be sooo hard! Poseidon Wars 3D is hella ambitious! I'm shocked that in a pre-anti-aliasing world, they were willing to have that much 3D depth to a game. Very cool list, and I didn't know about a single one of them, so this is awesome! Hopefully it goes full on viral 😀
One of my favorite things about you is how geeked up you get with technology and learning how things work whether it was the light phaser or the 3D glasses! Oh don't tease me on Wolfenstein 3D.... that's one of my all-time favorite games and I played it so much as a kid on PC. LOL I tried a Virtual Boy for the first time last year... it was a cool concept but the red man.... the red..... I'm happy you enjoyed this video so much! One of these days I need to get you a Master System!!! Thanks for watching.
The only game I played with these glasses from a friend was Out Run 3D. I thought it was so futuristic! I´ve always liked innovative ways to play videogames, was a fan of Kinect in Xbox 360 and now got a PSVR2 for the PS5 and love it.. I think these glasses maybe were the great-grandfathers of VR!
I bet you have some cool memories of playing that game then! The Kinect is something I've yet to experience, I think it would be cool to try out. Wow, you have the PSVR2? That is pretty nifty! I hope it succeeds and that we see a good library for it. Thanks for watching!
Both of them are very solid games. Maze Hunter is very unique compared to the other games on this list. Love to hear that you played them. Thanks for watching!
Maze Hunter looks like one of the better ones on this list. I like the idea of exploring in 3D instead of having something fly at you out of the screen. Thanks for watching!
Some pretty cool games that sound like they utilized 3D well. Outrun makes sense as one, so much so that Sega released Outrun 3D on the 3DS using it's 3D functionality. Great topic, TC!
I think the Nintendo 3DS is the only system I can play continuously in 3D without needing to take breaks. The rest I need some rest for my eyes. I wasn't aware of OutRun 3D on the 3DS but now that I think about it, it's a no-brainer. There are some very solid games on this list. Thanks for watching buddy!
I have most of these and the working glasses. Maze Hunter is probably the most fun to actually play, but Missile Defense has the most impressive 3D effect. Every part of me wants to love Space Harrier 3D, but man, is it choppy. A couple of things that might be useful to anyone interested- a Genesis/Mega Drive with a Power Base Converter will work with the 3D glasses and Light Phaser. Also, if you want to try Maze Hunter 3D, it is included in the Sega 3D Classics collection on Nintendo 3DS. It's not exactly the same experience as the glasses and a CRT, but it's a pretty solid way to play one of the best games from this lineup.
I am so bad at Space Harrier and Space Harrier 3D kicks my butt even more haha. Give it a shot though, it's a cool visual effect. Thanks for watching buddy!
I wish the 3D library was a little bit bigger. The games we did receive are pretty solid all-around. 3D gaming is fun, but i need to take breaks during it. Thanks for watching!
Nice list! I've always considered 3D to be a gimmick as it came and went with multiple companies taking a shot at it at different points in time without any real success. And it's looking like VR is going that way as well. I wonder why those technologies didn't take off and gathered more of a following. I mean, sure, you could say that the technology wasn't as good back then on the Master System, but Sega should at least get more credit for being one of the first to release it out there! Great video and keep up the good work!
I think so too and the 3D glasses were years ahead of their time. Mark Cerny did a great job with the design. I only got a pair many years later , but they are definitely worth checking out if you ever get the chance. 👍
I've tried some 3D and VR gaming recently and it is really cool but the problem is that it's not sustainable for me. I need to take a break after 20-30 minutes of playing these games. It's super cool what the Master System was able to do with 3D technology. Thanks for watching buddy!
Nice one buddy. Another cracking list there. Little bit of trivia here for you, did you know Line of Fire has a hidden 3D mode as well on the Master System? It's a fun game, but playing in 3D with the glasses is a completely new prospect. Check it out if you ever get the chance 👍
Yes buddy. It actually runs without the glasses , so you should be able to download the rom and give it a try anyway. It's pretty cool little game. Was a Master System Challenge one week a couple of years back
You know, I read that Line of Fire was 3D compatible but I just didn't believe it! That is super cool that it has a hidden mode on it. I'm glad you've experienced it, I'll have to try it out someday. Thanks for watching buddy!
@@pacmantravel2158To be honest, I don't know. You should be able to play the games but am not sure the 3D effect would work. The 3D glasses also require a device which plugs in the front of the Master System as well as a cable which runs from the device into the Glasses. Am not sure if emulation could recreate this.
I had the 3D glasses together with Outrun 3D, headache in 10 minutes ! Screen refresh rate was cut in half (so 25 Hz on PAL systems) and the shutter system caused nausea and as mentioned, headache.
If you don't care about collecting original hardware, you can use 3D glasses from many other brands and they are MUCH better in price (and not broken). This is because the technology came back a few times for GPUS and 3DTVs over the years (as long as they have the same style of stereo plug). Even the Nintendo glasses that were released only in Japan will work. I got an Asus (Vr-100g I think) and they are probably the easiest to find. The only catch is you still need the card adapter and people do sell them separately for reasonable prices.
ANY game can become 3D if you do mushrooms before playing them. _Disclaimer: ‘Angry Dad Gaming’ does not condone the use of ANY hallucinogenic unless you are EXTREMELY bored._
@@TigerChainsawVideoGames I would love to see a court case where someone complains that they received bad information from a TH-cam comment on the consumption of their illicit materials.
I had these glasses for my Master System back in the day, but the sadly didn't work, so the games looked crap and the image just constantly flickered. Real shame.
It's just the glasses and a card slot adapter. They don't use a color wheel or anaglyphic effect; they're more like modern 3D glasses using a shutter effect that syncs with the refresh rate of the monitor. It works very well in practice, though the glasses aren't overly comfortable.

Here's another mind blower. Nintendo release this technology as well on the NES, just only in Japan.

Poseidon Wars and Maze Hunter were my two favorite 3-D games.
Both of them are very solid games. Maze Hunter is very unique compared to the other games on this list. Love to hear that you played them. Thanks for watching!
I love how if you hold it close to your face and cross your eyes you can see the 3d :) what a neat experience, thanks!!
Haha the experience that keeps giving! Thanks for watching!
The effect works much better than I expected. I have all the 3D games, but I didn't have them when they were new. Maze Hunter is my favourite.

Awesome input! Thank you for sharing, I'm sure some people will find your comment very useful.
The 3d games were such a cool concept
They had some very cool ideas back then. I wish there were a few more 3D games!
I always appreciated the attempt to push 3D gaming back in the day. It was always so novel and exciting to try, no matter the end result.
Can you imagine a 3D "Plot Game" Mmmmmmm plot...... Thanks for watching! ; )
Cool list. I need to play Space Harrier 3D. As a fan of the series, I'll need to play it eventually
I am so bad at Space Harrier and Space Harrier 3D kicks my butt even more haha. Give it a shot though, it's a cool visual effect. Thanks for watching buddy!
I had zaxxon and space harrier 3d. Impressive effect.
Awesome to hear you had some 3D games and enjoyed them on the SMS! Thanks for watching and dropping a comment.
Ha. I still have mine. last time i tried them. they worked. it was a fun thing to play with back in the day. kinda sad it didn't get more games
I wish the 3D library was a little bit bigger. The games we did receive are pretty solid all-around. 3D gaming is fun, but i need to take breaks during it. Thanks for watching!

It's super cool to see Mark Cerny's career arc. He's done so much for the gaming industry!

You PAL guys got some awesome Master System games that I'm really jealous of.
Pretty ambitious of them to use the 3d glasses buy I still want my hero in 3d
It would just be a fist coming through the TV and punching you in the face lol
@@TigerChainsawVideoGames only if there was a curb stomping game
@@LameDadRetroGamer I need to make an SMS cover… lol might feature a certain Texan on it
Maze Hunter had the best 3D effect
Maze Hunter was very unique compared to the rest of the 3D games on this list. I really like the concept behind it. Thanks for watching!
I still need poseiden wars 3d. My favorite is maze hunter and missile defense.
There are some super cool games on this list. Maze Hunter is one I really want for my own collection. Thanks for watching!
It's probably worth mentioning the 3D glasses will not work with the Master System 2. You would also need a CRT TV in order to see the 3D effect.
Those are some great points worth mentioning! Thanks for watching and dropping a comment.
Do you think we can get Sega 3D glasses for the emulator or maybe retroarch?
@@pacmantravel2158To be honest, I don't know. You should be able to play the games but am not sure the 3D effect would work.

Sounds like you did not enjoy the 3D games on the Master System haha
I have all these games but need to buy a new pair of 3D glasses as I lost my pair when I moved 4 years ago
I typically find some good deals on the 3D glasses when I go to gaming conventions. I should pick up another pair myself! Thanks for watching buddy.

That is a real shame! What a bummer. Thanks for watching regardless.
How many pieces are in the kit? Is there a color wheel?
This is the best information I could find on them: segaretro.org/3-D_Glasses
