SG-1000: Farewell, my friend

I've had a really great time discovering and researching the SG-1000 library, and I hope you have too. If not, well, thanks for bearing with me. And if so, you'll probably enjoy this episode, which replaces the original introductory warm-up piece and also includes a full rundown of the system's library... this time, in actual release order, and with the proper color palettes. I wish I had known how to capture SG-1000 color accurately back when I began this effort, but alas. This overview will, hopefully, put things right. (As will the book, of course.)

Now, on to Game Boy.

The only SG-1000 reissue I'm confident about is the Sega Ages Wonder Boy collection for PS2, which included this version of Wonder Boy (and was my first experience with the platform). A vague nagging sensation tells me something else has shown up somewhere, like Girl's Garden appearing in some unrelated collection or the like.

I've really enjoyed this look back over the past year on a console I barely knew existed beforehand. One question- has Sega (or for that matter, any company) ever re-released any SG-1000 games in any form (compilations, unlockables in other games, ect.)? Because Sega published every SG-1000 game, I wonder whether other companies even have the right to re-publish SG-1000 games...or maybe the rights to classics such as "Champion Kendo" and "Pop Flamer" have been lost to time (and a maze of legal issues)

I really appreciate all the work you've put into the SG-1000 series. I knew next to nothing about the console before. I can't say I'm terribly interested in playing any of its games, but it definitely gives me a great appreciation for the Colecovision, Master System, and Famicom.
