Some more shots of the MD Fantasy Zone repro a friend sent me. As we saw with the MD Darius port, I really hope we get an official release of this someday.

I love Black Bird. It's the closest we've gotten to a new Fantasy Zone in recent years. Returned to it last week to crack True Mode and it's been fun.

Todays video is LIVE & we got a Developer Interview for Virtua Fighter 6!
Not exactly the next big gameplay trailer, but with news so sparse for VF you take what you can get, plus there's some very interesting stuff here!

Shame about the issues with City Connection's R-Type Delta HD boosted release. 🤞🏿At least some of them get addressed. Such a great game.

Flicky never received a physical JP release, but I don't mind the NA boxart at all.

In the original arcade version of Final Fight, there's a third button whose function is to escape grabs. It's not wired by default in arcade machines, but was left in the game code and can be accessed via emulation. Here, I tested it via MiSTerFPGA. It was probably used by the devs during QA.

Today's review is Atomic Runner for the Sega Genesis.
The short version is that this Data East run & gun is a great game that deserves some of your time.

Happy 35th birthday to the Super Famicom of course - but let's not forget about another birthday: 35 years ago today, Sega's Castle of Illusion was released in Japan. This game kicked off Segas amazing run of Disney-games and showed that Sega really can do amazing console-style platformers!

This attract screen is etched in my memory. Still blows my mind.
'Virtua Fighter 2' was released in Arcades 31 years ago this month in Japan.

Finally Demonschool is out and first impressions are excellent! The game is incredibly stylish, battles are fast and clever and it moves at a wonderfully clippy pace! I can't wait to find out more about Hemst Island!
