My haul from October, FINALLY came in, fully.
The Saturn games arrived fairly quickly (end of October), but the other ones just came in yesterday:
Nippon Daihyou Team no Kantoku ni Narou! Sekaihatsu Soccer RPG (Saturn, 1998); one of three Enix-published games for the Saturn (the other two are the INSANELY-expensive Nanatsu Kaze no Shima Monogatari {which looks great} and Ninpen Manmaru). It was super cheap and despite being text-heavy, is apparently can be played with guides no problem. Think of it as an early Football Manager, but I can't remember if you control the players or not at any point.
Gale Racer (Saturn, 1994); You Brits may know this as Rad Mobile from the arcade, but this was actually a launch title in Japan. Plays quite well and graphics are... decent, though when crashing, the screen looks like it's debugging itself or something lol. If anyone has seen a driving game where a little Sonic is dangling from the rearview mirror, this is the game.
Puyo Puyo (Game Gear, 1993); Blame Judge Eyes for getting me all Puyo'd up for some reason... Everyone knows the game lol.
Super League (Genesis, 1989); Tommy Lasorda Baseball is one of my favourite games ever (definitely top 3 favourite baseball games ever) and when I learned that the Japanese version of the game is DIFFERENT, I scooped it up quickly in a bid in October. Hell yes.
Fastest One/1 (Genesis, 1991); More of a simulation (if you could even do that in 1991) than arcade-style racing, I mainly picked this is up because it was cheap, it has actual F1 tracks from the 1990 season and actual drivers (with their names slightly altered). Also like that you have to do the full-weekend setup of qualifying then racing, so even if it looks a bit rough, can't wait to try!
