		anyone know of any japanese genesis games i should try?

		IUG	May 7, 2002
		My two picks, El Viento (spelling?) and Pulseman. El seems like an older game, but the classic action game. Only a few scenes in Jap, but the pictures give you the general ideas of what the plot is. Pulseman is like Ristar meets Megaman. Cartoony looking, but a great game. Looks like a Sonic style of graphics, and standard action gameplay.

		El viento wasnt ported to America , I had this game your probably right . It was a wolf team renvation game like Valis right ? I like Devil Hunter Yoko !!!

		Hey! Now I'm not the only one who loves Devil Hunter Yoko I got it cheap in a sale years ago, it's a very underrated game in my opinion! gory_chow, Panorama Cotton is a must-have Japanese title - it's rare tho Shame they never released it outside of Japan.

		http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=... UIG , this looks like a american "genesis" cart to me . I think otherwise it would say megadrive and the edges would be rounder . Maybe this is some kinda rare proto-type game .

		El Viento WAS realsed in america. I reccomend Alien Solider, Yu Yu Hakiso Gaiden (SP ?) (not the 4 player fighting game, as it's shit) and Ninja Burai Densteau ( I spelt the last part of this name wrong)

		I know captain I was being a smart aleck What about The newzealand Story I have this on Megadrive but dont ever remember seeing it on genesis . Was also released on Nintendo and Called kiwi craze .

		New Zealand Story only came out on MegaDrive in Japan - Here in the UK it's one of the very rare carts and would probably be worth a bit! I sold my copy years ago when it was still relatively easy to come by, I've regretted it since.

BTW, maybe I should say the "engrish" version, kindof bad tranlation job...
