Fascinated to learn this thing also uses little NES cartridges compatible with a Game Boy-shaped Famiclone called DR. BOY or LITTLE LIBERTINE. BG Wiki: "Most if not all game releases for the system use completely unrelated boxart (e.g, a release of Kyatto Ninden Teyandee uses artwork of Garfield)"

A late 1993 ad from Japan for The Legend of Xanadu, an RPG for the PC Engine CD by Nihon Falcom A few of Falcom's titles such as Ys I & II had been ported to consoles by others, but the PC-focused studio would finally step up on their own with this original title designed for NEC's CD-ROM platform.

The teaser ad promised a release date of February 18th, 1994, and was flush with praise from a number of Falcom's staff. Up until this game, Nihon Falcom primarily released their games on Japanese PCs leaving it to third-parties to port their works to other platforms such as the Nintendo Famicom, Sega Master System, or the PC Engine CD.

It was also Yoshio Kiya's last project with Nihon Falcom before parting with the company after having worked on many of their most pivotal series from the first Dragon Slayer title to Ys.

The ad hypes up the fact that the game makes the best use of the CD-ROM format to deliver a "profound" experience featuring new combat gameplay designed for anyone to get into. Masayuki Kato, the president of Nihon Falcom at the time, was even quoted as saying that this would be the cutting edge of RPGs hinting at the huge investment and expectations that the company had for it.

The ad also features an offer for an "Emerald Dragon" and "Xanadu" telephone card if interested players purchase a PC Engine DUO-R system. Let's go!

Hey is that Ninja Kamui show on blu ray or something? I caught a couple of episodes of it on Adult Swim a couple years ago and thought it looked cool but never tracked it down. No, I don't mean the Sanpei Shirato adaptation from the '60s, the contemporary show.

Something that's easy to miss in the history of Japanese romance games is that otome games weren't some later development after dating sims proved themselves. Angelique came out four months after the original PCE version of Tokimeki Memorial, making them and their respective scenes contemporaneous.

Oh, hey, the B't X TV anime finally got re-added to Tubi, at some point, so now both seasons are available to watch there dubbed for free! There's also now a Spanish dub for B't X & B't X Neo, too, but I have no idea if that's some vintage dub or something more relatively new, like the English dub.

Before Blaze, Adam, and Axel, there was, well, very different characters envisioned. In the design docs from July 1990 for Bare Knuckle (aka Streets of Rage) archived on IA, and when it was known internally as D-SWAT, the player characters were GOD HAND, BLACK BIRD, and PINK TYPHOON.

A scan of the design docs with some crude drawings of a guy in a karate suit, what might be a boxer judging by his round puffy hands, and a Chun Li-eseque lady in a long elegant open at the thighs asian-ey dress
