Rainbow Islands: Story of the Bubble Bobble 2
Sega Master System · 1993
About this game
The European/Australian Master System port of "Rainbow Islands" contains a bug that crashes the game after Level 7, sending the player back to the title screen.
If the level select code is used to access Level 8, the same glitch occurs at the end of that level completely preventing the player from seeing the ending.

The Brazilian version has fixed this bug.
The basic premise of the game is that each level is an island which is slowly sinking into the sea.
The player must therefore get to the top of each level, by jumping on platforms and making use of the game's most distinctive feature: the ability to produce solid rainbows, which are used both as platforms to stand on, and as a weapon.
About Sega Master System
The Sega Master System (1985/1986) was Sega's answer to the NES and, while it lost the console war in North America, became genuinely dominant in markets like Brazil and parts of Europe. That regional split matters for collectors: PAL and Brazilian-market cartridges can differ meaningfully in scarcity and pricing from their North American counterparts for the same title.

Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
