An Ode to Third Party SMS Games, by Kevin "k8track" Moon

The number of third-party games for the SMS
'Twas five and five alone.
Unless you count the two in Japan,
Then to seven the amount had grown.

The evil Nintendo empire had said, 
"You only make games for us, hear?"
Thus, did all the third-party companies
Acquiesce and tremble in fear.

The gamers who'd thrown in their lot with Sega
Found their collections unusually sparse.
And slowly came to the realization that
Nintendo was kicking their arse.

Today, one-score-and-six years hence,
All the bad vibes have departed;
Through Dr. Sparkle's prism of chrono-history,
The system is fondly regarded.
