Novotrade is barely known in the gaming world nowadays. The company itself may be obscure, but its classic game Ecco the Dolphin isn’t.

It was only released on the Sega 32X in 1995, when the gaming world was slowly changing from 16-bit to 32-bit consoles.
Based on the famous Fist of the Northstar anime and released as one of the earliest Genesis titles, Last Battle is something of a “love it or hate it” game.
