Zavas video is Up! (PC-88 Paradise)

[esteban]

New video! You may know Enix for the Dragon Quest series, but did you know they also made a similar turn-based RPG on the NEC PC-88 in 1991? Watch to learn all about it!

DUDE! This appeared in my TubeYou stream and I absolutely loved it. I had subscribed years ago (or maybe it was brother's account), but I lost touch w/ video game stuff and now I have lots of stuff to catch-up on.

Hey guys. This time I did an interesting game called Melroon, which you've probably never heard of before. It turned out to be quite an interesting game, though. Please check out the video and let me know what you think! Should this game have been released on the Turbo?

[JPEngine]

Certainly seems like it would have been right at home on the Turbo! Glad you stuck it out to the end, if only so we could see the end ourselves

Haha. Yeah. He actually says "Oh my god!" and "Hey boy!" constantly in katakana. The way I read it in the video is how I imagine "Rock'n Rock" saying it. Kind of wish I could have done a funnier voice more different from my usual one though.

I like the cute funkiness of the boss characters, and I'd love it if more RPGs had puzzley bits for getting money (or at least items) instead of just grinding away, killing beasties.  That definitely looks like another fun one.

Also, who doesn't enjoy a nice cold glass of Caka?

To complete my coverage of the "Gagharv Trilogy" which I've covered on PC-98 Paradise, here's the original version of The Legend of Heroes V (which was for Windows).

Nice video, man.  As an ijit that can't always remember what he had for breakfast the day before, I enjoy how you notice music being reused from game to game, revealing little breadcrumbs for fans to follow.  I want to replay the PSP games now, but I still have so many other games unplayed.....

I know what it's like, man. I finished Legend of Heroes V back in 2002-2003, so it was like "There. Done! I've conquered the game and don't need to ever play through it again." But then when I actually played through it again 20 years later for the video there was so much about it that I didn't remember accurately. I think I literally made up one of my favorite anecdotes about the game: "There's a cave that gets built up as a big dungeon but then it's just one room with a chest!" Never happened. I couldn't find that cave in the game. It doesn't exist.

Makes me wonder how many other games I played decades ago that I don't actually remember accurately.

Finally got around to covering this game.
Of course Farland Story FX is also included in the video!

On this episode of PC-88 Paradise I suffered all the way through the original Valis game from 1986 for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!

Valis 1 was tough enough just to watch let alone play. Hats off to you, sir. When I first played the MSX Valis, I thought my system was broken due to the mismash graphics. Makes the TG Valis 2 look like a masterpiece. Telnet had to start somewhere!

[kazekiri]

Hey guys. This time I did a video on the second Farland Story game. Enjoy!

The next PC-98 Paradise video isn't up yet, but in the meantime please enjoy my brother's MSX Castlevania video that went up on the channel today.

Hats off with the "What we do in the Shadows" cameo in the intro, nice touch!

I'm so glad you brought up the "strike a pose" at the end of each level. Too bad MSX just didn't have the power to slow down and allow for users to do "blue steel"
