Star Tropics, for a game that was never released in Japan it sure does kick all sorts of ass. I like the second one more than the first though some people will say otherwise.
Know what NES game series people never talk about?

What's up with islands? Get more land.
What's up with deserts? Get less sand.
...StarTropics is talked about all the time in terms of late, great NES games. Zoda's Revenge was decent, but StarTropics and soaking the map in water will always be a fond memory for me. Too bad I didn't want to get my map wet and had to type in all of the numbers by hand until I found the right one
Anyone have a theory on why it wasn't released over there?
Good games, haven't played them as much as I want to.
Star Tropics? Meh. Those games are overrated. How about the Power Blade series? They are really good action/platformers similar to the Mega Man games. Very unknown to the gaming community.
Power Blade gameplay
Power Blade 2 gameplay
None Ever talks about MARIO
U GAIZ JUST DONT LIKE CHANGE , (builds a artificial foundation here)
I agree. I bought Star Tropics when it first came out due to the lavish write-up that Nintendo Power gave it. I never trusted them after that.Originally Posted by Nintega Grafx-16
StarTropics? Nah (and it's only a matter of time until InsaneDavid responds). Here's an NES game series people never talk about: Big Nose the Caveman.
(And if you've played one of the Big Nose games, you'll know why.)

It's fun in an odd way. You really have to get used to the outdated physics before you can truly enjoy the game. For a game of its style though, a lot of stuff is really cryptic. In that swamp puzzle, I would have never, ever guessed that there was a hidden door right freaking next to the exit stairs.

Startropics was fun, but I never got hooked on it. Now if I had to mention a series, Top Secret Episode and The Mafat Conspiracy don't seem to get talked about as much as they used to. I was always hoping Vic Tokai would have done a third one to balance it out as a trilogy for Duke Togo considering Mafat was such a solid improvement over the first, but sadly that never happened.
No one knows what it's like,
to be the sad game,
to be the mad game,
behind blue eyes...
HA! I'm not going to respond because I stay away from threads started by the OP! ...wait a minute...
I like the first better but Zoda's Revenge is good.
Everything in the above post is opinion unless stated otherwise.
An Urzu402 topic is a topic worth looking at.

Golgo 13 FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i have never agreed with anything more in my life ever
in fact...

Not to be a Negative Ned but StarTropics certainly gets its due. It's even on the Virtual Console. For better or worse, there is no title on the NES that has not been discussed in detail. The Game Boy on the other hand, excepting Pokemon, is virtually ignored.
Should be the forum motto!
I concur with your quote signature idea. I am also changing mine. Should be a new campaign.

Fixed. You spend too much time on GameFAQs. They are called threads everywhere else.

Saying nobody ever talks about Startropics is like saying nobody ever talks about how much ET sucks, it's always mentioned when referring to classic NES games.
Breaking Bad 3x02 - Caballo Sin Nombre
Never talk about, Super Mario Bros., Everyone has it, so no one talks about it!
also, ET doesn't suck!
Condoleezza Rice is nice, but I prefer A Roni!
