Nice Code credit screens

(1/2) > >>

AttackedbyGlitch:
I've been a bit busy lately trying to look for interesting unused stuff in NES bootlegs and I've just discovered unused credit screens in nearly 30 Nice Code games! With the exceptions of Seaport Guarl and Pizza Boy (which don't list any names at all), they all have the letters PJ at the top with a list of credits below, with Robin Song credited as the producer and Wofire as the director. I'm assuming that PJ stands for PowerJoy, however these credit screens seem to have been removed on all the PowerJoy consoles I've checked.

I've documented them all in my userspace on TCRF (link).

Maybe the "NCG" in the Seaport Guarl credits stands for "Nice Code Games".

oh wow that's cool, nice find! i found a few random snippets of credit related text in Nice Code games before, but I had no idea something like this was lurking in so many of them.

maybe there's some kind of button code to activate them? like the hidden credit screens in Sachen's games (which I think were included so Sachen could prove the games were theirs in the event someone pirated them and removed the copyright)

Oh, yeah. I'm a dummy.  :D

On the topic of NiceCode-related acronyms, on NiceCode's old domain name, nc-game.com, maybe they did "nc" instead of NiceCode so that if they wanted they could say it stood for "Nature Color"? I'm probably being a dummy here too but whatever.  :P
