Up until today, I didn't know there was a remake and I had no idea this was a sequel to Portopia :P

Excellent. Thanks!
That's from the ending, so it means "END". If you want to do that one too, go ahead.

@flashpv.bsky.social Hey FlashPV, are you still making title screens? If you are, think you could make one for me close to the original style?
Game: Hokkaido Rensa Satsujin: Okhotsk ni Kiyu (translated as The Hokkaido Chain Murders: Vanishing in Okhotsk).
Let me know and thanks!

There are two different Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade NES games; one published by Taito, the other by UbiSoft.
(Doesn't help that their boxes look so similar!)
@darklordzagato.bsky.social has mapped both of them!
See them on VGMaps.com:

Final Fantasy IV for the Famicom was 80% Complete? | Mato Tree
I haven't read this article yet, but I thought I'd drop this old blog post of mine in here too in case it's helpful:

And here are some archived Japanese pages for reference:

A screenshot of a mock-up used to promote the then-in-development Final Fantasy IV for the Famicom, taken from https://shmuplations.com/ffiv/
I just learned that there was a Final Fantasy IV in development for the Famicom at the same time as Final Fantasy V for the Super Famicom. This "IV" was canceled, and the "V" in development became the FFIV we know now. The lost "IV" may have been as close as 80% complete?!

Tell them the obscure story about how the American Super Mario Bros 2 is based on Doki Doki Panic.

That is true!
Sayo-chan (Pocky) cameos in a bunch of Taito games too, like Rainbow Islands and Elevator Action Deluxe and a bunch of Space Invaders sequels!

Did you know that the girl you rescue at the end of Demon Sword (NES) is none other than Pocky from the Kiki Kaikai/Pocky & Rocky series?

A page from the manual for Rygar (NES) with the caption "ANIMALIZED MEN WRIGGLING EERILY" above several illustrations and descriptions of monsters that appear in the game.

It was actually released first on the Sega Saturn if you can believe that.

I'm now tackling the Harvest Moon endings. Even though the community already figured this out and there are FAQs with details, it's still a bit daunting since I'm not familiar with the Harvest Moon games at all.
