Celebrate the Internet Archive's anniversary by looking at some old websites through the Wayback Machine! I highly recommend checking out Nihon Falcom's old site. It is full of so much fun random stuff. web.archive.org/web/19961222...

My latest video is about a 1992 sideview action RPG from Koei based on Dante's "Divine Comedy" called “Tamashii no Mon ~Dante ‘Shinkyoku’ Yori~”. It turned out to be a beautiful PC-98 game that I had no idea existed until one of my patrons requested it. youtu.be/j9Qe7Z5xoI0

For our final translation this month, we have a nostalgic interview with Noriyoshi Ohba and Rieko Kodama from 2001! The pair chat about their history at Sega, looking back at the developments of Altered Beast, Shinobi, Phantasy Star IV, and more. shmuplations.com/ohbakodama/

Here's another game that should've had an episode of PC-98 Paradise a long time ago. Come learn why I think the PC-98 version is the best. You can fight me if you disagree! youtu.be/LBknse-TiTE #falcom #retrogaming #16bit #snes #jrpg

Here is a four page magazine ad for Dragon Slayer, one of Nihon Falcom's earliest RPGs that later spawned a whole family of loosely connected franchises. I really enjoy how the protagonist is portrayed as a weird little gremlin in these ads, compared to the macho man featured on the box art.

Moonlight Syndrome update 🌕 The patch is now playable from start to finish, and I've been able to complete a full playthrough! Showing our progress without spoiling has been difficult, but for now, we will continue polishing the script and fixing bugs while we playtest.
