In April 1987 Computer Entertainer reported that the Master System cartridge was scarce: Sega had received a small shipment from Japan and expected the main one in the latter part of April.p. 6 (image 6), "Space Harrier Scarce"p. 6 (image 6)Magazine
Computer Entertainer reviewed the Master System version in April 1987 at a suggested retail price of $39.95 and recommended it. It called the cartridge Sega's earliest two-megabit one and a faithful translation of the arcade game. In its story the player, as the Space Harrier, saves the dragons of the Land of the Dragons from the One-eyed Mammoth by destroying 18 waves of enemies, each ending with a boss. The review praised the graphics and music, and found the characters nearly as detailed as in the coin-op.p. 11 (image 11), Space Harrier reviewp. 11 (image 11)p. 11 (image 11)p. 11 (image 11)p. 12 (image 12)p. 12 (image 12)p. 12 (image 12)Magazine
