Back to the Future Part III, often simply known as Back to the Future III, is a video game released for the Sega Mega Drive and Sega Master System. It is based on the 1990 film with the same name.
Contents
Gameplay
The Master System version omits the first-person target practice segment.
Palette Errors
An error in the Mega Drive version's palette storage results in the game appearing darker than it actually should be. On the Genesis, the bit order of palette colors is 0000BBB0GGG0RRR0, with RRR, GGG, and BBB being the red/green/blue components of the color and 0 being zero bits. This game, however, uses 00000BBB0GGG0RRR by mistake; the lowest bits of the components are ignored by the hardware, resulting in a color range (000, 001, 010, 011). Because smaller values are darker, the colors will thus appear darker.
History
Release
Game received poorly due to short length and brutal difficulty level, particularly that of its first stage.
