Rediscovering: Hagane
Hagane is a weird game. When it was new, I had a copy and I thought it was staggeringly cool. It couldn’t be more Japanese if it crammed wasabi down your throat, and it was so fucking difficult that’s more or less what it felt like to play it.

Rediscovering: Plok
Plok! was a Super NES game that didn’t make much of a splash when it was released in 1993. But how did it fare in 2012? This repost of a lost forum review will tell all!

Rediscovering: Sutte Hakkun
Another SuperNES platform game in the Rediscovering series. This time, it’s Sutte Hakkun (すってはっくん), a Japanese puzzle game originally released for the Satellaview satellite add-on, and much later as a retail cartridge in 1999, the year of the Dreamcast.

Rediscovering: Metal Warriors
How is Metal Warriors, 20 years after it was released for the SNES? Still brilliant.

Interesting SNES Demo Cart
I bought a few EPROM boards from someone recently and some had chips on them. Turns out it’s a 1996 Tokyo Toy Show version of Nazo Puyo 2, with new special screens, but missing about one third of the content in the released game. It’s kind of neat.
