NES Works #065: Star Force and Side Pocket
Added 2020-02-26 15:00:00 +0000 UTCI'm afraid we've a bit of ho-hum content to work our way through before we get to The Good Stuff™. This week's episode isn't especially inspiring—it's essentially a low-grade repeat of the Zanac/Lunar Pool episode from last month, but instead of being cool Compile games, it's... these. Please bear with me for the next month or so! It'll all pay off. Episode 70's gonna be a banger, I promise.

So, to date, Hudson has: - Developed Doug Smith's Lode Runner, then adapted one of its enemy characters to create Bomberman - Co-opted Westone's Wonder Boy to create Adventure Island - Repurposed Tecmo's Star Force into Star Soldier Those guys were pros at turning borrowed ideas into successful properties of their own!
