(1/11) > >>

TALUIGI:
There's a game a Homebrew/Bootleg, made by ''HAPPYSOFT LTD.'' That's called Hong Kong '97, When I First Looked to the game name, I was thinking that it's a Obscure Fighting Game... But I has wrong, Now I started to make some investigation to know who did this. but one day, I had found this site :

Actually, Nobody said that this game don't have a phystical copy. but, they are selled in FLOPPY DISKS, So it got a rom, so you can play the game in the pc with a emulator.

Here's the translation.
Hong Kong 97
The most famous thing in SFC coterie software.
Although not much talked about,
It is that Coulomb Mr. created
It has become a common belief.
And say to the sale in the FD in such form
We had a tremendous plan.
It seems was not transferred to the run (laughs).

Well weird... The creator of this "Work of Art" Is know as "Kowloon Kurosawa" He got a facebook, his facebook photo got a mickey mouse look-a-like mask. and In the 2004's Site. There's a photo of a guy with the same mask. It's very bizarre. also possibly it got a ending. mabe if you reach to the score : 120000000 you can finish the game, because in the site, in HK97's Description it's writed "エンディングが？" That means Finish. or End. So there's a clue that the game got a ending. or a next level. So I'm Trying to reach that ABSURD SCORE. Like there's my score for now.

I hacked the Score Numbers to make understandable also, yes. The game is hackeable!  :rolleyes:  

Like, the game is like a mystery, I want know more of the development, and secrets behind it. also I can make a mockup photo of the Original Floppy Disk photo.

taizou:
apparently Kowloon Kurosawa is a journalist, and he made the game in about a week - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_97_(video_game) / http://sixsamana.com/?p=257

(also judging from the release date, it was probably intended for play on real SNESs with a floppy disk-based copier, rather than emulators)

TALUIGI:
Hmmm... That's really weird. How they would run Floppy Disks on SNES?! :shock:
Also, I am trying to get a good score, but I has in 9845, But then, It reseted back to 0048! WHAT HAPPENED?

fcgamer:
You would use one of the many different SNES copiers, which all use generic floppies.  From the looks of the packaging, it seems this game was just distributed on generic disks, and not on cart format, ever.

TALUIGI:
Oh... So it's like a SuperFamicom Version of the Famicom's Disk System?
