OK, so the Japanese list is not that much better than the U.S. list, save for that little SNES gem called Actraiser. It was one of the first games I got for the system way back in the early 90’s, and I got it because of a sole screenshot in Nintendo Power magazine: the centaur boss from the first stage. I had never seen anything like it, and lucky for me, the rest of the game was just as gorgeous — even that diaper wearing angel with the bow and arrows.
