The Sega Master System was a competitor to the Nintendo Entertainment System and a predecessor to the Sega Genesis. Although technically superior, it never did as well as Nintendo in most of the world (Brazil excepted). I was surprised to learn that in sold less than the Atari 7800 in North America. This was for a number of reasons including but not limited to: a slightly later entry into market, poorer marketing, and Nintendo's draconian and anti-competitive licensing scheme.

Above is a poster from 1987 that was included in many of the games. It features classic Sega artwork depicting characters and other various Sega gaming scenes.
