Hm, DotEmu ? I thought I heard that name before! They're that French company that localized Ys I & II for Android phones (http://www.dotemu.com/ys-chronicles-i). So they try to get interviews with developers for their video channel ? Interesting.

They're publishing the remake, I believe.

Yeah. I'm a wee bit worried. The problem with Flash games is they look way too clean. There's no grit! Modern animation has the same problem.

Cheap flash-like game doesn't sell: "Players don't want another wonder boy game, let's cancel everything related to it and not touch the franchise for at least 20 years."

There aren't any credits in the ridiculously long septi-lingual manual.

Not to overly necro, but @Black Tiger:  Omar Cornut reached out to Nishizawa, who has no idea who did the SMS version of Monster World III.  Do you have any idea where you heard that the port was done by a Western dev?

I don't think that any Genesis-to-SMS ports were made in Japan.

Well, games like Dragon Crystal (a semi-port from Genesis' Fatal Labyrinth), Shadow Dancer, and Moonwalker were done by JP teams.

Well, I have no hard data but by 1993 I think it would have been easier for Sega to find people willing to do a SMS port in Europe rather than in Japan?
