This is incredible

Super R-Type Commercial, 1991

I think this is my favorite thing I've made

Like I'm more proud of my DMGC design but I play this way more often honestly

Combat is bloodier, with new moves and transformations. The grotesque bosses and creepy cutscenes push the 16-bit hardware to its limits. A bold and brutal end to the original Splatterhouse trilogy.

Two versions. Two eras.
1986: the FDS original—disk saves, audio boost, slower load.
1994: cartridge—faster, simpler, accessible.
Both legends.(10/10)

In 1994, Zelda was re-released in Japan as a Famicom cartridge. Key changes:
• Faster load
• No extra sound
• Battery save instead of disk save
Same game. New format. (9/10)

The world was designed after the dungeons. First came the labyrinths, then the overworld to connect them. Clues were visual. Players had to map things out by hand. (8/10)

Beat the game and unlock the Second Quest: a remixed, harder version with tougher enemies and new dungeon layouts. It only exists because there was space left on the disk. (7/10)

The FDS version has richer audio than the cartridge version. Why? It had an extra sound channel. More layers = better music and effects. It’s subtle—but real. (6/10)

Zelda on FDS had built-in save data. No passwords. Just save to disk. Cartridges would later use battery save to offer the same feature. (5/10)

No sword? By design. You had to explore to earn your weapon.

“It’s dangerous to go alone! Take this.”
A moment that shaped a genre. (4/10)

Total freedom from the start.
No guidance. No path.
You could head straight into danger.
Miyamoto: “I wanted players to get lost—and find their own way.” (3/10)

Zelda no Densetsu was the first game for Famicom Disk System. Also Japan’s first million-seller. A bold move by Nintendo: open world, no instructions, no stages. Just raw adventure. (2/10)

The Legend of Zelda
Famicom&FDS|1986|Action-Adventure|Nintendo

Zelda’s soundtrack was recently added to Nintendo’s music app in Japan. Let’s go back to where it all began: two Japanese versions—one on disk, one on cartridge.

Neutopia
PC Engine|1989|ActionRPG|HudsonSoft

Hudson’s answer to Zelda, with lush overworlds, tricky dungeons, and a quest to stop the evil Dirth. A technical step up from NES-era Zelda clones, with smooth visuals and a great soundtrack.

魔境伝説 The Legendary Axe
PCEngine|1988|Action|VictorInteractive

Smooth animation, axe-charging combat and strong level design made it a cult classic.EGM’s 1989 Game of the Year in the U.S. Standout launch title for the console.

Legend of Zelda
Game & Watch|1989&2021|Nintendo

Got the original one for my 5th birthday, and found the 2021 edition brand new at a BookOff for just 1000¥.
Both are gorgeous—and total bangers.

Fire Emblem Gaiden
Famicom|1992|SRPG|Intelligent Systems

The oddball of Fire Emblem. A world map, dungeons, HP-based magic, no weapon triangle and free-roaming battles. Bold ideas that set it apart.
Loved by some, ignored by others, but impossible to forget.

Landstalker
Megadrive|1992|ActionRPG|ClimaxEntertainment

With Ayu Kudo’s art, this RPG pushed the MegaDrive to its limits. Its isometric jumps were brutal, but that’s part of its legend.

The same team made Alundra, its spiritual successor. Respect!
