Finished Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru aka For The Frog The Bell Tolls for the #GameBoy once again. This game is soooo good! It's a crime that there isn't a re-release with an official translation or even a remake in the style of Link's Awakening for the Nintendo Switch.

The artwork of Romancing SaGa 3 by Tomomi Kobayashi used on the back cover of the remastered OST and as part of a post card set, albeit with a different color tone. Most likely it was used for other stuff as well. Usual upscale/clean/retouch process applied.

Got Marvel Cosmic Invasion for PlayStation 5. In a few months I suspect another physical version with added content will be released much like what happened with Shredder's Revenge...😆

The artwork of Robo Crush by Kazunori Nakazawa used on the cover of the #MSX2 release in Japan. Took some liberties in upper corner and bottom to add the missing bits, applying the usual upscale/clean/retouch process.

Asked a friend to make me a new repro of Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru aka For The Frog The Bell Tolls for the #GameBoy using brand new components (PCB with battery free save and shell) and my custom label sticker. Gotta say, I'm pretty happy with the end result!

Finished Xenoblade Chronicles 2 on Nintendo Switch. While I enjoyed the story, world, and characters, certain aspects of gameplay mechanics were a bit obnoxious such as getting new Blades and field skills (which were improved on NS2 version). Overall, good game.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 key artwork with logo.Xenoblade Chronicles 2 screenshot. Engaging with a bulky enemy. The combat is quite fun but getting the right combos can be tricky at times.Xenoblade Chronicles 2 screenshot. This game has many gorgeous vistas that can be enjoyed at different times during the course of the day.Xenoblade Chronicles 2 screenshot. Another combat out in the wild.

The artwork of Populous by Tim O'Brien used on the cover of the #SuperNintendo release in North America. Restored by using different sources to add missing bits, removing the logo with few liberties, adding the signature, and applying the usual upscale/clean/retouch process.

The artwork of Pac-Man by Hiro Kimura made for the #Atari2600 release which went unused for being "too ferocious". It's a total departure from the game but also a really cool and goofy piece. Still a bit cropped on the bottom. Usual upscale/clean/retouch process applied.

Finished Crysis Remastered Trilogy on PlayStation 5 (PS4 BC). Overall fun games, the first being the better one. I just wished it had some mechanics from 2 and 3 thrown in (like stealth kills and the predator bow). Platinum achieved on all games.
