That's some epic cover art. Dude has some jacked forearms, holy shit. Looks like the in-game graphics are able to decently capture the same feel.

I don't know about favorite, but I do dig some of the old FC RPG covers. Granted with system limitations they tended to be victims of the whole "awesome cover art but the actual game is basically just dinky little SD sprites" deal. It wasn't until the SFC era that I felt games could really live up to the promise of the detailed, lively box art.

Like Metal Max here has some badass box art, but the game graphics are mostly lol-worthy.

I always wonder what was the deal with the Famicom port. For some reason Enix passed on publishing JESUS and Ginga no Sannin themselves on the Famicom.

From what I gathered the Famicom port removes some of the gore and nudity so maybe they just decided fuck it and decided Dragon Quest was a much more important focus than an obscure visual novel from a few years prior

It's one of those wacky Japanese adventure games that originated on the PC-88. No idea about this (NES) port, but I bought the soundtrack roughly 20 years ago. Some technically good arrangements on this one. Very 80s.

Love how extreme this cover is. The only thing that could maybe make it better was if he was pursued by some bikers who were shooting guns at him (one of them popping a wheelie).
