jump into the air and hold both the left and right buttons. you will find that wonderboy falls through the floor. this might not sound usefull, but when he reaches the bottom, he reappers at the top of the screen, and you can land on clouds and other platforms! (let go of left+right) when you want to stop.
however, falling through enimies can be very damaging.
not all clouds can be walked on (eg if they are partialy hidden behind a building, then they are just for backgroud decoration.)

tried it on massage, brsms and meka. it doesnt work on meka, so i assume it doesnt allow opposing directions to be used simultaneously.

Here's another one that pretty useful: Press pause about 45 times and you get free gold. If you
use a control pad on Meka, then one of the pad buttons acts as a rapid fire pause button. So
you can rack up the gold pretty quick.

This works in a real Master System too! We just have to press and hold
the middle of the directional

Yes it doesn't. That's wall I call real emulation ;)

Then your paddle is old or broken.
It shouldn't happen. Never.

I never did the trick with an original SMS pad, but I'd often use Genesis controllers on my SMS. There are a handful of SMS games not compatible with the Genesis controller - WB2 is one of them. (Intended for use with the Power Base Converter, but works on the SMS the exact same way).

By having the Gen pad connected, Wonder Boy starts spinning (L&R together) - jump and he keeps scrolling off the screen until you remove the pad (so he can land). This was often a BIG help in that annoying jumping section on the final level.
