Alex Kidd supposedly was Sega's rival to Nintendo's Mario, but, after Sonic the Hedgehog was released, they completely forgot about the Alex Kidd series. This game is shorter than the Master system version, but is a very tight platformer. Since it's short, it's also very hard.

This movie goes through the game quickly and makes use of the helicopter and the motorbike in order to increase speed.
