Super Fantasy Zone

[Melf]

Anyone who is familiar with the Fantasy Zone series will feel right at home with the Mega Drive sequel. Controls are essentially the same and the premise has not changed at all. After O-papa, (Opa-Opa's dad) is killed by the returning Dark Menon (sounds like a perfume company), little Opa takes on the mantle of space savior and sets out to finish the job his father could not. Using all his skill and armament, he battles through ten stages of baddies in order to eliminate Menon once and for all.

Read the review.

Your review had a mistake. the Japanese version is entirely English too (except the Manual, but that doesn't count) or at least mine is, besides that great review! and 1 thing worth noting about the Japanese edition is that the case is only half the size of normal Mega Drive/Genesis Case.

Maybe it's a dual ROM and your setup defaulted to the English version?.....then again, the opening paragraph states "the game was in English" though it goes on to make clear it's referring to the European version, while the last paragraph (merely) implies (but doesn't state) that the Japanese version does contain Japanese language though not enough to hinder the Nipponese-challenged (like me) among us...Melf, can you clarify?

Edit: just confirmed that the Japanese version is a dual ROM--the story sequences are in Japanese on a Jap MD, in English on a Euro or US system, etc. All in-game readouts and options seem to be in English in all versions.
