| Astro Robo Sasa 1985, ASCII, Famicom |
Astro Robo SASA (アストロロボSASA) was a game released in 1984 for the MSX Home Computer in Japan, and later ported to the Nintendo Family Computer in 1985 (as was a common practice for many other NES games, including Ultima: Exodus).
The game, outside of some pretty base-level descriptions on the internet, is rather obscure. Basically it's described as a little man in a space costume, shooting bullets to propel himself around while collecting cans with "E" on them in various stages. This game is a darling of the the Famiclone consoles and multicarts sold out of China, likely because it seems nobody cares very much for it - weird because it's actually a really good game and quite a fun one to boot. Maybe if I can get my hands on a Japanese manual for it from the Famicom release - we can decode the story for the game.Catchy Tagline - My Experiences Videos Other Stuff |
