Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii: All 15 Master System Games
All right, this is a pretty straightforward collection once you know where everything is. There are fifteen games in the Master System library. Five are already available, and the other ten come from four pawn shops around Honolulu. You don't have to hunt down a random cartridge on some remote island to finish this one.
The completion challenges stop at playing twelve different games. I'm including all fifteen because if you're filling out the collection, you might as well know where the other three are too.
Where to play them
Your first console is in Majima's room in the shed on Rich Island, available in Chapter 1. There are also consoles at Revolve in Honolulu and the Pirate Room hideout in Madlantis as the story opens those places up.
Interact with the console, choose a game, and start it. You can switch between the International and Japanese versions from the selection menu. You don't need to find a second cartridge to use that option.
The five you already have
• Alex Kidd in Miracle World.
• Alien Syndrome.
• Fantasy Zone.
• Penguin Land.
• Poseidon Wars 3-D.
Check those before spending anything. If you're working through the Reputation challenges, start each of these five first so you're not leaving free progress sitting there.
Hula Avenue: three games
Find Treasure Select Pawn on Hula Avenue, southeast of Revolve. From the Hula Avenue and Resort Boulevard intersection, walk east along Hula Avenue and look for the shop on your left.
Buy:
• Enduro Racer: $300.
• Fantasy Zone II: The Tears of Opa-Opa: $300.
• Galaxy Force: $300.
Total for this shop: $900. These become accessible during the Honolulu portion of Chapter 2.
River Street: two games
Use the Treasure Select Pawn branch northeast of Aloha Bridge. If you're approaching along Kaku Avenue, go north and turn left onto River Street. Continue along the street and look on your left for the pawn shop.
Buy:
• Flicky: $300.
• Space Harrier 3-D: $300.
Total here: $600. Between these two shops and the five starter games, you'll have ten titles.
Anaconda Shopping Center: three games
Continue Chapter 2 until the story sends you toward Diamond Head and opens Aloha Bridge. You can then reach the western side of Honolulu and Anaconda Shopping Center.
This pawn shop is upstairs on the second floor. Use the escalators on the eastern side of the mall and look for Treasure Select Pawn, rather than searching the ground-floor arcade.
Buy:
• Maze Hunter 3-D: $300.
• Quartet: $300.
• Star Jacker: $300.
Total here: $900.
Chinatown: the last two
Go to the Treasure Select Pawn on Kolonahe Street, east of Nirvana Hotel. This is the Chinatown branch, not the River Street shop you used earlier.
Buy:
• Secret Command: $300.
• Global Defense: $300.
Total here: $600. With those purchased, the full library should contain fifteen different games.
What the collection costs
Every purchased game costs $300 in in-game money. Ten purchases make the complete collection $3,000. The five starter games cost nothing.
If you only want the final Master System challenge, you need seven purchases alongside the five starters. That's $2,100. The remaining three add $900 if you decide to finish the whole library afterward.
There's no special discount for buying a particular group. Pick any seven you want for the minimum, or follow the four-shop route and collect the full set.
Getting the completion credit
The milestones are:
• Play four different Master System games: 500 Reputation.
• Play eight different games: another 2,000.
• Play twelve different games: another 3,000.
That's 5,500 Reputation across the three milestones. Buying the cartridge and playing it are separate things. After shopping, return to a console and actually start each title you need. You don't have to beat twelve entire retro games or reach a particular score for these challenges.
To keep it simple, go down the menu one title at a time, start a game, then return to the selection and move to the next. Check the completion counter at four, eight and twelve. Starting the same title repeatedly won't replace playing different games.
If you want to spend more time with them, the emulator has save and rewind features. Check its control overlay so you know which buttons belong to the retro game and which open the emulator options. You can enjoy the games without committing to finishing each one in a single sitting.
Final check: five starter titles, three from Hula Avenue, two from River Street, three from Anaconda, and two from Chinatown. Fifteen owned, twelve played for the final challenge. The arcade cabinets are a separate activity, so keep those on their own list when you're checking off everything in Pirate Yakuza.
