ININ Games and TAITO have announced Spica Adventure will be releasing worldwide for the first time alongside Parasol Stars.
There’s much to be had with this one and it’s not just through its gameplay.
Previously locked as a Japan-exclusive, the game is now available for current consoles thanks to Inin Games.
I pre ordered this from Strictly Limited Games nearly 3 years ago and are still waiting. Spica Adventure was a standalone game, which I also pre ordered, but both games were eventually bundled together on one disc/card. I received a refund for Spica Adventure after a number of emails lasting months. Do not pre order games from Strictly Limited Games.
"The Bubble Bobble series wasn’t always just dragons blowing bubbles. Before Bubble Symphony and Bubble Memories came along, Rainbow Islands and Parasol Stars were the official Bubble Bobble sequels, and they starred Bub and Bob as humans instead of dragons. Parasol Stars was originally released on Turbografx-16/PC Engine rather than to arcades, but it’s every bit as well-made as its forebears. More than 30 years later, Parasol Stars has finally returned to consoles thanks to ININ Games. While the new release is low on frills, it’s great that modern audiences have a chance to play it," says Co-Optimus.
