The Wreck
Star Solder
Two games, as they could not be more different, they also tell of the culture of their places of origin.
I like the Star Soldier game. Schottere were very popular for MSX1 in Japan that time. This top-down MSX1 shooter never seems unfair. I never noticed the insufficient scrolling at that time, on the contrary: enemies move fluently, the background wobbles in 8bit time.
The recurring piece of music is unfortunately a little annoying, but that was quite common at that time and leaves me time to appreciate my record collection.
The Wreck was a daring disappointment to me, I could not ignore the scrolling. There was a much better representative of the (still new) genre:
ASCIIs 1983: "Illegus episode IV" the only commercial game that uses Screen 3 I know.
Nevertheless, you have found two wonderful additions to your collection.
yes the wreck seemed like an Atari 2600 game for me and I could't figure out how to play it
very basic graphics and sounds but I think its the first European game I have for my MSX
Star Soldier looked like any msx1 shmup from that era basic graphics and music but loads of fun
another cartridges I found last month
C'SO - THUNDER BALL - FINAL JUSTICE
I couldn't find any image reference for the cartridge version of Star Soldier all what i found was the bee card version from Hudson Soft
the cartridge looks legit to me
As mentioned on Generation MSX, the cartridge version of Star Soldier was released in Korea by Zemina without having a licence from the Japanese company Hudson Soft. In Japan, the game was only relesased on BeeCard.
