It's Sunsoft Sunday! Here are designs for a Marurun hat distributed in very limited quantities at a Waku Waku 7 event at Tokyo Game Show, as well as the real thing.
Sunsoft's follow up to Galaxy Fight used the NEOGEO arcade hardware, this is a full playthrough / longplay / trueplay as the cuddly monster Marurun. A bright, bold and humorous fighting game with lots of easy to learn moves and overpowered super attacks. The name was a play on the number of revisions and sequels games like street fighter got. A very underrated fighter and one any serious fighting fan should have in their collection, the Saturn version also requires the 1MB RAM cartridge in order to run.
Now until 2008, the Saturn port was the only home version of the game, it was supposedly based on a cancelled NEOGEO CD version, which perhaps might explain why the port isn't as good as it should have been. If you like the game we would recommend the PlayStation 2 Sunsoft Collection version or the recent Nintendo Switch download release. As while the Saturn version does have an awesome arranged soundtrack and a huge range of options to unlock, you can also play as both the bosses in two player mode and the game uses the Saturn internal clock to show monthly artwork. NEOGEO ports on the Saturn always seemed a bit nerfed and as a result Waku Waku 7 on Saturn is packed full of loading screens. The game loads, between, after and before every round and that's not mentioning the slowdown. Which isn't too much of a problem till you fight Dandy-J and Arina who's background characters seem to be the cause of the problem. Oh and Fernandeath the final boss causes the frame rate to drop by close to half and don't even think about a mirror match with him in versus mode as it is super ssllloooowwww moootttiionnnn. Oh and to top that off the background has a dynamic scaling feature in the arcade version, which this version includes. However, for the Saturn version it only uses the wide background art, so while the background is fine when the characters are far apart, when up close get ready for some seriously pixelated art. Interestingly one of the secret option removes the scaling and sets the background to the largest, this also removes a lot of the slowdown. So Sunsoft were aware of the issue it would seem and they tried to fix it best they could, the fighting game Rabbit on Saturn also had the same problem and a similar fix for the issue.
Despite being a great fighter these days it's hard to recommend the Saturn port, unless you don't own any other format to play the game on. In which case pick it up as long as you don't mind the issues we raised. Astra Superstars was a sort of follow up from Sunsoft to both Galaxy Fight and Waku Waku 7.

The team has always been the most popular, with most manga and animation films on professional baseball in Japan usually featuring heroes from the Giants. The team is likened to the New York Yankees, and it is often said that there are two kinds Japanese – pro-Giants and anti-Giants. Not a baseball enthusiast myself, I was born and raised in the Kanto Plain, and therefore a Giants fan throughout my childhood, just like most of my friends. I proudly wore a G-marked shirt and ball cap, cried when Shigeo Nagashima retired from the Giants in 1974, and was overcome with joy when slugger Sadaharu Oh hit his then-record breaking 756th homerun in 1977. Since Hideo Nomo became a historical success with the Dodgers in the mid-90s, star players such as Ichiro, Hideki Matsui and Koji Uehara have taken their world-class capabilities to the MLB one after another. The NPB has become somewhat of a minor league for MLB, and those players who have succeeded in the U.S., have become even bigger rockstars in their home country. While there are many similarities between NPB and the MLB, there are some drastic differences that you notice the minute you walk into a Japanese stadium. For one, fans become cheerleaders in the stands while their team is at bat. Each player has a unique song, and every fan knows the lyrics to chant along. Secondly, the cold beer conveniently served at your seat is done so by a petite Japanese “beer girl”. It’s a stark contrast to the big and loud “beer guys” yelling “Beer here!” in the U.S.

Hallways are lined with beautiful tapestries and intricate carvings that would have gained Wright’s approval. Rooms are as unfussy now as they were decades ago with armoires, leather chairs and neutral color schemes. The Old Imperial Bar is a throwback of a lounge with lamps adorned in triangles, Marilyn Monroe photos and an ornamental wall from the original building. Elsewhere around the hotel, you can still feel the nostalgia, too. Traditional services are held six days a week at the Toko-An Teahouse, an onsite ceremonial chamber that replicates sukiya architecture down to the granular details. And at Nakata, the popular sushi restaurant, chefs prepare bites in an authentic Tokyo style. Osaka’s Imperial Hotel has made its own bit of history — though the building only dates back to 1996. But even in that relatively short span, the property has hosted political dignitaries, entertainment royalty and anyone else interested in the kind of subdued elegance that the brand has come to be known for. There’s an Old Imperial Bar here as well.
