19 Apr 2017 19:03		Looks like someone just added achievements for Wonder Boy III as well. Guess I need to shift my focus to getting some Master System cheevos. :)
19 Apr 2017 19:06		First 2 achievements popped without me playing the game, however. "Hedgehogs are careful" and "Tastes Like Neon". The latter popped once the demo mode started past the initial title screen.
19 Apr 2017 20:45		Sorry. I forgot to mention that you need to update your picodrive. It received a small fix to make MasterSystem cheevos work just yesterday (18-april-2017).Please, update and try again.
21 Apr 2017 2:37		I just loaded the game and got "Hedgehogs are Careful" and "Tastes Like Neon" from the start..
