Famicom Games That Were Never Released In America.
« on: August 05, 2014, 12:37:02 pm »
Does anyone know of good Famicom games that weren't released in America? I know that rarer games on the NES such as Duck Tales 2 and Gun-Nac are cheaper on the Famicom. I have been told that Wai Wai World and Holy Diver were good but still have yet to hit purchase on eBay. Does anyone have advice on that?

Am gonna purchase my copy of this game at Mexico for less than 40 bucks, but this will have to wait until this next month anyway you should consider the Akumajō Special: Boku Dracula-kun, this one is pure awesome too, but the bad part is that the bonus levels are in Japanese so you'll gonna need to understand this language to enjoy it at 100%  :P

DEZAEMON - An arcade space shooter with a unique twist. You can create the shooter from scratch. Cell animation, enemies, music, sound, the works.

Super Mario 2 - (a version of this was released in the SNES "Super Mario All-Stars" and dubbed "The Lost Levels". But it was modified significantly from the Japan version to be "easier". This was technically an FDS game.

The entire Famicom Disk System library.

Famicom Basic (not a game, but sweet hardware)
