The Megaduck section of the website continues to be updated with new reviews of Ant Soldiers, Pile Wonder, Bomb Disposer, Vex and The Brick Wall all uploaded recently and reviews of Railway and Duck Adventures coming soon.

I'm also looking to update the Extra Life section of the website with a feature looking at Bandai Wonderswan games that make the console a worthwhile purchase for Westerners.

As a little teaser check out the screenshots below that note a little discovery I made while fiddling about with my Swan Crystal; a fully functioning horizontal shooter hidden away in the Japanese menu for turn based strategy game Uchuu Senkan Yamato.

It won't be giving Gradius a run for it's money any time soon but it's a perfectly playable effort that's all the more interesting for being a free extra that most non-Japanese speakers are completely oblivious to the existence of! Ironically, The game is one of the cheapest Wonderswan games on Ebay right now, probably due to the main game being so text heavy. Fortunately the language of the #shmup is universal!
