Samurai-Ghost (TG16)

Thanks to MintyJuffowup for introducing me to the game [1]. According to Wikipedia [2] it wasn’t ported to any other system--unlike its prequel, Genpei Tōma Den (aka The Genji and the Heike Clans). I wonder if this was because it was made by Now Production (who also made most of the later Adventure Island games of the era, for Hudson Soft) rather than by Namco themselves.

I happened to have the perfect background for this.
