Played this on console and PC Engine. Really tough platformer. The last few areas had me pulling my hair in frustration.
Y'all know Keith Courage is a bastardized game based on an anime right?
Of course, Mahou Choujin Wataru. A kids action show that ran on Bandai channel in Japan in the late 80's and had a number of games spawned after it. Unfortunately, Bandai could've used the opportunity to release the Wataru anime in the U.S. to coincide with the TurboGrafx 16 launch and to promote it based on the video game. Sadly, it was never considered and Wataru may never get to see the light of day again.
Bandai doesn't like to go after old licenses.
Here is a link to the actual BANDAI channel page that sports the memory of this fun show:
MAHOU CHOUJIN WATARUOh, and I don't use save states for Keith Courage. I just used the continue option. Save states are for games with passwords.
