The hot new Master System indie shooter, Frontier Force, which I had written about here just two days ago, will soon be available in a boxed physical cartridge form from 2Minds, a new publisher for indie games on Master System and Game Gear. The game will be packaged much like any old retail release for Master System, complete with box, reversible color inlay, manual, poster, and cartridge for use in any Master System or Master System cartridge adaptor for Genesis/Mega-Drive, Mark III, or Game Gear. It will cost €50 (Currently $56.78 USD).
For links to order the game, check in after the break below.
Here is the game’s synopsis from 2Minds’s website:
The Earth lies in ruins under alien occupation, a harsh reminder of our lost home.
A fragile outpost, humanity’s last hope, teeters on the brink of collapse. A hero must rise to defend the outpost against relentless alien invaders. The fate of humanity rests on your actions, and the outcome is far from certain.
Here is where you can order your very own physical copy of Frontier Force. As of this writing, the game is actually not in stock, but keep checking in for when stock is available.
Some of you may remember 2Minds, who opened for business last year selling games like The Sword of Stone for Game Gear, as well as a variety of other new Master System games. They sell their games in Master System, Mark III, and Genesis cartridges, plus Game Gear cartridges for games tailor made for the handheld. Frontier Force, for now at least, will only be available as a Master System cartridge. We’ll update this article if other types of cartridges for Frontier Force become available.
If you or anyone you know has put together a new Master System or Game Gear game and would like to see it published on physical cartridges like this, consider getting in touch with 2Minds. They build their own cartridge hardware of superb quality and can sell the game for you right from their own store.
Have you tried Frontier Force for yourself by now? What do you think of it? Would you be willing to get a new physical cartridge of the game or would the ROM file be enough for you? Give us a shout in the comments below.
