Since I’ve been having a bit of a computer shuffle lately, I figured I should finish up releasing these ROMs before I forget to. Unfortunately, this means they aren’t all entirely researched thoroughly, but it’s better to make sure they’re up now, I guess.

\nA bit ago, Callis sent me this ROM. While it has the RPG Tsukuru brand, it does not seem to be a RPG Tsukuru 2 add-on, but rather a standalone “RPG Tsukuru SUPER DANTE” product.<\/p>\n

“Jewel of Live” is a seemingly simple Dragon Quest-like JRPG. With a focus on grinding and little to nothing in terms of puzzles or exploration, it’s probably not something one would normally consider much fun to play. Perhaps it’s plot is compelling? Unfortunately, I do not believe I know enough Japanese to fan-translate it. It seems a bit complex for the simple gameplay, though.<\/p>\n

I’ve tried researching the nature of this – is it an indie-developed product? A fan-made product put up for distribution? Or just something ASCII put up themselves to promote their RPG making tool? Again, hoping someone who has more info can give me some more details. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The game should run in BSNES, SNESGT, or SNES9X.<\/p>\n

As typical, my next two releases are magazines. First up….<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nA Magazine about Japanese “Idols”. I do not think I have this specific one’s proper title, but I can clearly make out \u30e1\u30c7\u30a3\u30a2\u30fb\u30b9\u30c8\u30ed\u30d9\u30ea\u30fc (Media Strawberry), so it’s reason for now to call this “Media Strawberry Volume 12”.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAmong the pictures you’ll see are a mixture of real-life and… these really crude drawings. I thought people liked Idols because they looked pretty? Indeed, I’m fairly certain these are supposed to be cartoonish interpretations of the actual idols. Aw, well.<\/p>\n

I’ve tried googling up the “Media Strawberry” term, but none of the results appear related to this. It’s possible the folks behind this magazine are defunct or changed their identities. In the meantime, here’s the ROM.<\/p>\n

After this last one, I’ll be more or less finished releasing all I’ve gotten up to this point. Here’s hoping the next few months have a slew of new material to work with!<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nTo start, notice how I got a screencap from BSNES this time? It’s because you’ll need it to run this one.
\nAfter a while of trying to read the Katakana at the title screen of this, I… gave up, checked Wikipedia, and noticed it matched with \u30c9\u30ec\u30df\u3067\u3075\u3041\uff5e\uff01 (DoReMi DeFa~!)
\nThis appears to be from the original “DoReMi DeFa~!” Line – previous ROM dumps were of “DoReMi DeFa 2~!”, which covered the same material but in a notably different formatting…<\/p>\n

\n“DoReMi DeFa~!” is a music-themed magazine which has things like TOP charts and whatnot. As we can see in this issue, Bob Marley was big in this time, for some reason.<\/p>\n
