Lost Legends

Nintendo has a vast amount of successful, and popular, franchises, but they also have a large number of forgotten heroes. Kyle Orland looks back at some of these titles, and explores why they've been left behind.

I remember my older sister rented Star Tropics and we didn't have the number code that you need to advance in the game. You have to enter a three digit code. We thought it was somewhere in the game, it was actually just in the manual (or a piece of paper) in the box. We didn't have this though and we thought we were supposed to find this number somewhere in the game itself, we couldn't, so my sister just started at 001 and entered all the numbers until she got it right at 747.

Good times. I think I'll go get a ROM of that game.
