    So i was on the train home tonight playing Rally King and I clear the last challenge...

    Arino: "Well done you beat my challenge! Here's your next challenge..."

    *fanfare* CONGRATULATIONS! YOU'VE UNLOCKED 'STAR PRINCE'!

    Arino: "Wow! Star Prince! You've been dying to play this haven't you?

    In my thoughts I sat there thinking "oh my God yes. Its the only reason I bought this damn game".

    I was suddenly overcome by a tremendous sense of joy. I fired up Star Prince and it was everything I hoped it would be. Funny how the games script was written, knowing, that this is the game everyone wants to play.

    Just wanted to share that. :o

    I haven't played enough of it to get to that stage, looking forward to it.
    I take it that Star Prince is a shmup?

    Yes sir it is! I've been playing it constantly just so I can unlock Star Prince in freeplay mode.

    No need to complete the game now, I have Star Prince. :)

    By the way, I love reading the magazines too. They look like copies of Shooting Gameside!

    So i spent about 4 hours playing this last night. Ridiculously brilliant game!

    Has anyone cleared Guardia Quest yet? Where is the 4th floor with the big lad you're having a row with?

    Is it the cave to the west of the village south of your gaf? Or is it over that little bridge north of your gaf?

    If i go north my party is at LV 14/15 and gets creamed by the intimidating looking teenagers hanging around outside the shop there.

    If i go south i get lost in the cave!

    Updating the thread! :o

    Completed 32/33 challenges. The last challenge is
    to complete every game
    ! I have only Haggleman left for this challenge. :)

    Mission complete! All 33 challenges now finished 100%. What a brilliant game, thoroughly enjoyed it... even if Haggleman 1 is supremely annoying! :)

    You'll have to get the even better sequel, only thing is it's only available in the original Klingon Japanese.
    Never got a Euro or US release, unfortunately.
    The games do take a jump into the 16bit era though.

    I'm learning Japanese so it will do as a learning tool. :)

    I played the game literally all day to finish it. Supremely unhealthy but enjoyable! I'll definitely keep playing Star Prince. I hear Game Center CX 2 has Star Prince 2, a cool Caravan version of the game. Definitely going to try and find a copy next month. :)
