| | | Collection of 11 Namco NES / Famicom ROMs. M2 handled the collection, and made one of the games: Gaplus, a modern NES ROM "demake" of the Namco arcade game sequel to Galaga.
I extracted the ROMs from the Steam version of the collection using MArchiveBatchTool, per RED-Project instructions on Github, and am playing them in Mesen (see entry 1536).
The games:
Battle City (Famicom) (never came to NES))
Dig Dug II (Famicom)
Dragon Buster II (Famicom) (never came to NES)
Galaga (Famicom)
Gaplus (new)
Legacy of the Wizard (NES) (JP: Dragon Slayer IV)
Mappy-Land (Famicom)
Mendel Palace (NES) (JP: "Quinty"; Game Freak's debut game)
Pac-Land (Famicom)
Rolling Thunder (Famicom)
Super Xevious GAMP no Nazo (Famicom) (never came to NES)
The small print at the start up of the games has been edited to remove mention of Nintendo and add copyright to "BNEI" (Bandai Namco something or other modern corporate entity I guess). |

| | | | Curiously, the games in these Archives collections seem designed for square-pixel aspect screens, just like Tetris; Pac-sprites for instance are wide ovals when using NTSC/4:3. Contrast this with say Mighty Final Fight, Tecmo Bowl, and Kung Fu, which seem too skinny as square pixels. |
