[size=140]Back in the early 90s all sorts of unlicensed Mega Drive started coming of Japan and Korea. Some of them were really bad, like Virtua Fighter Vs. Tekken and Dial Q, while others were rather good, such as Super Bubble Bobble and Smart Mouse. Obscure Chinese shoot 'em up Magic Girl (also known as Xiao Monv) falls into the latter category.

Now thanks to 1985 Alternativo, who recently published the excellent Mega Drive remake of Oh Mummy as well as UWOL: Quest For Money, this game is set for a full translated release for western markets! Anyone interested in buying the game will be able to do so very soon via the Store Bonus online shop!

But that is not all! They will also be publishing the Spanish homebrew game Supra Killminds and making both available for sale at the same time! Both games will be prepared on demand and will begin shipping from next Monday!

You can watch a video of the game in action below!

I like the look of that and it is different from what I expected!  Cool!

It's basically a blatant clone of Konami's Twin Bee.

But then I bloody love Twin Bee so this is an essential purchase for me  :8:

TrekMD

I plan to get it.  I've already put it on my calendar.  :)

Me too, their pricing is great and I was really impressed with Oh Mummy.

TrekMD

They also deliver pretty fast to the US, which is great for me.  :)

I really wish we could get an interview with them, I know you tried once before.

It would be great because you could do it in Spanish and translate it all, maybe we should try again?

I can try again and see if we get lucky.  I can certainly just do it in Spanish for them if that makes it easier.

That's what I was thinking, because whenever I have seen them post in English it's pretty bad. So I am thinking that maybe they are worried about us being a "UK website" contact them in Spanish and see if you get a reply :1:

TrekMD

I have an email from them that I saved from when I bought Oh Mummy.  I'll reach out to them and see if I can get them interested.

Would get them more publicity/sales that is the way to position it and we have already covered all their games here.

I just emailed them.  Apparently it is necessary to email them to let them know you want the games.  I'm double checking they are NTSC compatible since I only see "Mega Drive" mentioned and not Genesis.  I also emailed them see if they are interested in doing the interview.  :)

Ah ok, they didn't make that very clear. I will have to email them then.

That's what this page says:  http://www.fasebonus.net/2014/03/hazte-con-tu-magic-girl-para-mega-drive/  It is in Spanish but the paragraph right under the picture is that one that says it.

The Google translate isn't very good then! Maybe I should have tried to read in in Spanish!
