A good mascot? People don't want to rally around no-name losers. This guy looks like a nintendo reject. Every sega and psx game aimed at kids is like this except for ape escape

Is it Wrist-Arr, or Rye-Star?

>>9945689
I always say "Wrist-arr" because Japanese pronounciation is "Risuta"

But I did read once it's a combination of words "rising star" so I don't know for sure

I can only imagine a sequel would improve upon the physics. How killer would it be to have a mechanic by grabbing and aiming enemies like a slingshot then having them ricochet off each other to rack up a high score?

Are you gay or a female? I know it's not the latter.

Probably a play on words (Japs love those), so, a play on both "wrist" and "rising" (as the spelling is based on the first two letters of "rising" (ri) and a play on how wrist it's romanized from Japanese sounds (ri-su-to(-a-ru) because the gameplay is based on using your wrist).

Because of this, the Japanese pronunciation is "wrist-ar" but the international pronunciation could legitimately be either "rye-star" or "wrist-star".

I don't know, I think this is one of the best 16-bit games. It's a shame it didn't get any sequels, the only thing we have is the Game Gear version with some unique levels but that's about it.

I prefer it over Dynamite Headdy. Astal is kind of similar in some ways but I still prefer Ristar. In fact, I kind of wish they could've made a proper sequel on Saturn instead of that game.

What about Crash and Spyro? And Sonic of course

>>9945608
Good game

You gotta be an adult to post here.

At the same time it is so good that I don't want a sequel. Well, at least not one revived by some shitty western studio that makes it an eshop game.

A civilized walking speed.
