“Clown. Shooter. Snake Charmer.” would be a decent forum sig

“The Pursuit of Wealth, Power, and Eternal Life” wouldn’t be terrible either

the clown pursues wealth
the shooter pursues power
the snake charmer pursues eternal life

the game is an asymmetrical three-way competitive struggle to those respective goals

The XBAND version of Virtua Fighter Remix (J Saturn) sets the regular version cover art in this black left/bottom border thing that I think really punches up the overall design.

Don’t accidentally buy this from say an eBay auction with a sealed copy that they didn’t realize wasn’t the regular Japanese version, because apparently you need the Sega modem and a Sega modem Media Card (those were like 2000 Yen cards I guess to cover phone charges?) in order for the XBAND version to work at all, at least without some kind of ROM hack.

It looks purty though.

Akumajou Dracula X: Chi no Rondo (PCE)

Fresh scan. Just found my old disc which I never played through 'cause the flashing FX don’t agree w/ my crusty eyeballs has a read error. So it’s a nice-looking coaster. ; D
