    Default Otocky.

    So, I've played this Famicom Disk System game and it is awesome, but no one seems to have it.

    I did see one place selling it for $25 with everything, but I don't know if it's a good deal or not.

    Anyone else ever play this game? It's kind of like Rez in eight bit.

    $25 doesn't seem too bad for a complete FDS game, but I don't know about the rarity of that one, either. For example, Zelda goes for around $40 complete, Metroid is around 25-30, and I just paid $10 for nazo no murasamejou.

    Mind you, this is all without shipping included.

    Okay, so it's made by the same guy who made Electroplankton, and is kind of like a precursor Rez. It uses the FM Synthesis Chip inside the Disk System for better sound.

    Here's some footage:

    I had honestly never heard of any of this or the designer before, but it seems like it would be lots of fun. All of his (her?) games look so bizarre!

    Also, just looked it up to find a complete one. As far as I can tell, Otocky is a weird FDS game in that it has a gigantic instruction manual. No idea what the original box might have looked like, but that $25.00 one looks more appealing upon realizing that it might not have the standard littlebox + disk + sleeve + disk-size instructions.

    Oh wait, it's not complete.

    Still might get it eventually, though.
