Developed by NEC, the PC-98 is a 16-bit personal computer released in Japan in 1982. When it came to its entertainment value, it was well-known for its huge catalog of doujin (fan-made) games. It also has its fair share of great rockin’ music that resonates up until today thanks to each composer’s way of handling its minimalist sound technology to craft something memorable for eons to come.
Here are our top five picks that you should have a listen to:
1. Flame Zapper Kotsujin – Into the Last Battle
This game resembles a faster version of Raiden. Developed by two guys who make up C02 Pro, Flame Zapper Kotsujin takes place entirely in outer space. The techno beats during the stages compliment the in-game shooting of enemies really well.
2. Rusty – Queen in the Dark Knight
Rusty by C-Lab is an obscure and under-appreciated hidden gem. It is more than just a Castlevania clone; it expands on the base game by introducing open-ended levels. You have to explore the stages to get the items required to proceed to the next stage. Stage 1’s theme is easily one of the best in the game; it brings you the feel of a heroine starting her journey of many perils.
3. Night Slave – Hard Rushing
A mixture of visual novel, Assault Suits Valken-styled gameplay and a Gradius-like weapon system, Night Slave is a really hard side-scrolling action game. With a touch of adult elements as well. The jazzy tunes in the soundtrack in the game gives some sort of a laid-back feel, like as if you’re in a metropolitan city.
4. YU-NO – Different World
A pure visual novel / adventure game hybrid, YU-NO is one of the longest visual novels of its time. Do check out the Windows port; it has been fan-translated by TLWiki and it is available on their website. The soundtrack is composed by the late Ryu Umemoto, widely considered as one of the best FM-synth chiptune composers in his time.
5. Genei Toshi (Illusion City) – Shop
Genei Toshi is a cyberpunk RPG set in Hong Kong. The game is similar to Phantasy Star IV, where you go around the city and fight unknown soldiers who are trying to kidnap a girl that tags along with your main character. The music in this game are a mix of techno and oriental styles, which blend together nicely.

Location: Wherever. | So let's talk about Aleste then. What is, by the way, the proper pronunciation of the title?
NH: I don't know! I think we're going to choose the one that is pronounced the coolest and make it official. One more reason to like M2. There are basically two people. I'm working on planning and graphic design. The programmer [Masato Yamanaka] is working on game design, too. [...] But that young programmer is the world's best player of a certain shooting game, and that balances it out again. Did I miss this tidbit from earlier in the topic someplace? I don't know many superplayer aliases, anyone have any idea which one this might be? Also didn't know the Flame Zapper Kotsujin guy was doing the character design. Aleste is a very multi-faceted series and from title to title, there are different features. But there is one common denominator in the whole series, and that is its anime-like qualities. Makes it all the more amusing that the Super Aleste US release cut all that stuff out, though it's still one of my favorites.

Location: Ringing the bells of fortune | I have no idea what advantage a 2D game has from Unity. Portability to different platforms, maybe workflows and tooling if you're already accustomed to Unity (and community support if you're not).
NTSC-J:You know STGs are in trouble when you have threads on how to introduce them to a wider audience and get more people playing followed by threads on how to get its hardcore fan base to play them, too.

Updates are announced sparingly with shmups. Best to just bide your time and when a tidbit of info is announced be happy about it.

He's competitive in quite a few games, Garegga being the big one.

R-Type Final 2 missed its window for an April demo and has been radio silent the last few months. I'd be shocked if that one makes it out in 2020. _________________

Looking pretty good. I hope it's multiplatform since it's being developed on Unity (had a nightmare it was EXA exclusive and almost woke up screaming) _________________

Finally have an update on Aleste Branch. And holy shit, the game looks really good. Getting some serious CAVE vibes here...
https://www.gematsu.com/2020/09/aleste- ... ps4-switch
We also have a compilation of several Aleste games. It's unfortunate it doesn't include Aleste 2, M.U.S.H.A., Super Aleste, or Robo Aleste, but at least it's better than nothing. _________________

Posts: 1786 | They should have put Aleste 2, M.U.S.H.A., and GG Aleste on there instead. That way we'd have the entire Ellinor Waizen trilogy in time for Aleste Branch. _________________

Location: MD | I would have picked the MSX version of Aleste over the SMS one since it has cutscenes and more stages. It's also directly connected to Aleste 2 and stars Elinor's daddy.
