#superfamicom

Oggi mi sono dedicato a Flash Hiders SFX, sequel per Super Famicom di un picchiaduro uscito su PC Engine. Oltre a sfoggiare un bellissimo stile anime anni 90, ha una bella modalità single player in cui si sale di livello a ogni combattimento, ottenendo punti per aumentare le statistiche e soldi per acquistare potenziamenti. Mi sono divertito un sacco! #rerogaming #SUPERFAMICOM #videogames

This is pretty neat! If you are into the #SNES #retrogaming space you have likely heard that the #SuperFamicom toward the end of its life had the subscription service called the #Satellaview. They released downloadable content that wasn't available anywhere else. One such game was a a particular version of #FZero. Still to this day nobody has it, but video of it existed, so a dude recreated it via that. New tracks, new cars, etc. You patch the Fzero ROM to play it. youtu.be/sDcrM706gws?si=eEHElD

Continued thread

personally, my big score was this game: Otogirisou. it is what was called a "sound novel" at the time, but would be now called a visual novel.

i picked it up for two reasons. first, i'm in love with the box cover artwork. there is something perfectly moody about it - a roughly inked haunted house in the distance, surrounded by briars, which looks like the only shelter during a pummelling rainstorm.
(and this is indeed the plot of the game)

second, it has an incredible soundtrack that was given a full orchestra treatment in the 90s. the album is called "Game Music Concert 2" by Tokyo City Philharmonic.
