Releases in Japan this July. Last year, it was confirmed that another classic retro platform was getting the ‘micro console’ treatment: the Japan-only NEC PC-8801 mkII SR personal computer, originally released in 1985. It has now been revealed that legendary composer and game designer Yuzo Koshiro is collaborating with manufacturer Dempa Shimbun to promote the…

I remember the sweet-and-sour chicken, chow mein, and prawn crackers. I remember the lighting and the layout of…
But it’s certainly still the cheapest. When Irem & City Connection announced that they were working on a port of R-Type Delta HD Boosted for modern consoles and PCs earlier this year, there was a lot of excitement online.

Shadowy. At last, we’re getting another Pokémon game on Nintendo Switch Online! And it’s the cult favourite RPG Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness on GameCube.
