The Master System was more popular in Europe, Brazil and Australia.
It was Japan and North America where it flopped pretty badly.

It was mainly due to Nintendo licensing agreement with 3rd party developers that killed the Master System.

In 1991, Nintendo was found guilty of violating United States antitrust law and forced to abandon some of its licensing practices.
Too late for the Master System, but the gap between Genesis and the SNES in the US wasn't nearly as big, still in the Nintendo's favour though.

Excuse me...

Speaking of the Master System, I found out recently that it is the longest-lived game console (26 years and counting), due to its popularity in Brazil.

Tectoy released the Master System Evolution on 2011 with 132 built-in Master System games.

diegodcg , I don't know if you give a shit about video games or not, but have seen many Master Systems around in your lifetime?

Navy sorry over military funeral for sailor who murdered ex‑girlfriend
"The chief of the Navy apologises for giving a funeral with full military honours to a sailor who strangled his ex-girlfriend to death in her Sydney apartment before taking his own life ..."

Wow!

Only took them a few years and exposure on Hitting Home last week to get an apology. The Navy were not so understanding at the time of the murder.

So an overzealous mother on my FB friends list has just exploded in a massive murderous rage about her child being bitten at child care today. She posts pictures and it's a little red mark on the kids arm.

Of course, me being me I told her to calm down because it happens every day and the kid that did it isn't a criminal and likely neither are it's parents. Just calm down, let it go, nothing out of the ordinary has happened and to basically stop ruining childhood for everyone through overzealous litigations and social media storms that force tighter and tighter regulation on everything to do with children.

Oh god the rage in return, I BET YOU AREN'T A PARENT I'VE GOT 500 KIDS AND YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO HAVE AN OPINION ON THIS.

Happens everywhere to every child.... And whilst you hope it's not an ongoing issue, the biter is hardly a devil child because of it.

When I was younger, yes - I had one myself, and so did pretty much every single one of my friends. And those who didn't, probably wished they did. I had no idea it still existed and that there was a new version of the console though - that must be reserved to very hardcore fans!

In my experience 2 out of every 3 mums on the internet are lawyers, immunologists, dietitians, child psychologists, doctors, Anne Geddes and David Avocado Wolfe (seriously, FTG) all rolled into one, so nyerr.

Love this!

From this day forth I'll be referring to members of this sub-section of humanity as "Dr Geddes, QC."
