It contains a version of the game that the former director of this website declared “it could even fuck itself”.
Just like last year, the last week of June saw a quarter of the Sega Genesis games added to the Expansion Pack library.
- Ghouls and Ghosts (September 1989) is the second game in the Ghosts and Goblins series, an early masscore platformer ported to the Super Nintendo in 1991. For the second time, an ill-fated knight named Arthur has to save Princess Guinevere from the forces of Hell (and has to do the same again).
- Revenge of the Shinobi (December 1989) was the first game in the Shinobi series of hack-and-slash platformers developed for consoles (although it was ported to the arcade version). It has a soundtrack by Yuzo Koshiro, and previous releases featured bosses who can transform into Spider-Man and Batman. Perhaps this is not his NSO catalog revision.
- Land Stalker (1993), an action-adventure game famous for its 3/4 bird’s-eye view, was also famous for its commercial success at the height of Genesis’ popularity.
- Crusader of Centy (1995) is a more traditional bird’s-eye view action-adventure game, originally released in North America by Atlus, now a subsidiary of Sega, despite being frequently compared to A Link to the Past. It was considered a cult classic.
