Startropics II
>>
>>12476264
Another 1994 NES release I'm sure nobody played IRL.
>>
>>12476270
hey now not fair, there were still a good amount of people with NESes plus Nintendo had top loaders to sell

> ZODA'S REVENGE plasted on the cover in the biggest text like they think I know who or what the fuck they're talking about

Easy pass

I think it was more cost to projected sales, it needed a fairly expensive cartridge config and they'd also have to pay for a translation team so NOA decided not worth it, they wouldn't sell enough to make back the localization budget.

I owned it back in the day and so did one of my friends. Another of my friends played it via my copy.
>>12476276
I think people don't realize the persistence of the NES.

>>12476270
I played it. Didn't own it, owned the first one, but rented it. I liked it, had some solid music, but the jumps being more pixel based than fixed-on-tile like the first game had some frustrating jump deaths (not that the wierd line-ups with said tile locking on the first game didn't do that either, but Zoda's revenge was worse). The combat was smoother with the 45 degree angles.

>double linebreak between greentext and regular text
Easy disregard of a post.
>>
>>12476296
They're really more like Zelda and aren't "RPGs." That said, the first game is a little better and has more personality. This is also the very last first party NES game released.

Moderately hard game, I'd estimate an average 2 hours to beat it.
>>
>>12476264
I kind of wish they stuck to the whole tropics part instead of historic places. The controls were a huge improvement over the first game.
>>
>>12476264
I really liked the first one but I couldn't get into part 2 (even though it seems that people say its a better game)
>>
>>12476283
This, but with The Empire Strikes Back.

Is there another bullshit letter included in the game box?

My brother got it for Christmas from an aunt that didn't know we already has a Super Nintendo for two years by that point. Neither of us having seen a copy of the first Startropics before, it remained in shrink wrap for about three years until I finally decided to play it out of curiousity.

No. It does have a copy-protection system to it where you'll just keep getting thrown back to Egypt if you hacked the game.
