I've hacked this into submission, now I just need to manually clean up the sprites. The first two are clean...

Most of these have been sitting on my disk for months...

As always, I'm completely unfamiliar with this game since I've only a select few Sega Master system / Game Gear games. I did like how all the sub-stages look like smaller portions of a bigger whole (especially for stages 1 and 4) except it's a bit disappointing in that they only "look" like they fit together. If you actually try for example to put together the stage 4 maps to assemble what looks like a spaceship, none of them really connect together. Of course that's absolutely not necessary for the game to be good or even just playable, but it's a nice attention to details when it happens to fit. At any rate, good job finishing this!

The Genesis version has only 1 larger map per stage. Although they didn't just take Genesis maps and split them because there are major differences in design. Also in the Genesis version, the classic Bond villains are more mini-bosses than end of stage bosses. You can even skip some of them.

I mean to finish the Genesis version one day. But I'm moving cross-country at the end of March, so it's not going to be any time soon.
