About Super Fantasy Zone
Super Fantasy Zone is an entry in the Fantasy Zone series of games, and was initially released in 1992 for the Sega Mega Drive. Unlike previous outings, Super Fantasy Zone was handled entirely by Sunsoft (under license from Sega), who had previously brought Fantasy Zone and Fantasy Zone II to the Nintendo Famicom. For unknown reasons the game was not released in cartridge form in North America, but is currently unconfirmed as being a Sega Channel title. It eventually saw a more widespread release as part of the Wii's Virtual Console service.

A colorful Opa-Opa shooter that never reached North America, with Mega Drive carts for Europe and Japan.
Super Fantasy Zone is a scrolling shooter developed by Sunsoft and published by Sunsoft and Sega for the Mega Drive. It came out in Japan on 14 January 1992 and in Europe in 1993, and it was released only in those two regions. You play Opa-Opa and set out to defeat Dark Menon, scrolling in the direction you fly, with a shop airship and a choice of weapons.
Sega Force loved it, praising touches such as Opa-Opa being able to walk as well as fly, though it found it tough and thought the lack of continues frustrating.
What the press said at the time
“Well worth a try. … Pick this one up cheap and you’ll be laughing.”
Before you buy
Among European carts it sits above the middle. The Japanese cart usually costs much more than the European one and has a different cartridge shape; it fits a Western console only with an adapter or after removing two plastic tabs in its slot.
