SUNSOFT is Back Retro Game Selection is a niche product that will not impress everyone. However, if you love old-school gaming and you wish to play never-before released in the West games, then don't miss out. This collection is nicely varied and wonderfully dated. Yet, I'm not sure if it is a few decades too late for this experience.

SUNSOFT is Back! Retro Game Selection is an interesting collection, if only so we can see how far the gaming industry has come. Just be warned, the games themselves are punishingly difficult and extremely unfriendly.

It's always good for the preservation of video games when companies provide us with compilations with never-before-seen development material, manuals, etc. In this case, Sunsoft includes all of that and goes even further by bringing three games that had never reached Western shores, which for many will be original 8-bit releases from the 80s. The only questionable thing is the small selection, three titles do not seem enough , especially for the large, varied and high-quality catalogue of Sunsoft, although as a first step, we could say that it passes its intentions. However, we hope for more in the future.

Los juegos retro siguen llamando la atención, especialmente si vienen con colecciones y añadidos extra como tenemos en esta ultima selección de Sunsoft.Contaremos con tres títulos que en su día nunca salieron de Japón, y que por suerte los podemos disfrutar en nuestras consolas actuales con textos en inglés. Se trata de Ripple Island, The Wings of Madoola y Tōkaidō Gojūsan-tsugi (53 Stations of Tōkaidō).Lamentablemente (y aunque existe rebobinado por si la pifiamos), algunos de estos juegos han envejecido mal. Y ya no por los gráficos, si no por un control algo tosco y una falta de información que hará sentirnos perdidos en cada pantalla. Con la gran colección que tiene la compañía, podrían haber incluído algún título mas accesible para el disfrute de aquellos no familiarizados con lo “retro”. Esperemos que salgan en una próximo revisión, porque Sunsoft tiene juegazos para dar y tomar. ****/analisis-de-sunsoft-is-back-retro-game-selection/

Sure these games are not going to hold up today. They are difficult, confusing, and a product of their time, but being able to access them on just about anything with a controller is fantastic. I highly recommend checking out this compilation if you have any reverence for Sunsoft. Seeing some of their early work is as much fascinating as it is informative.
