There are a few reasons I think that these "English" shots of "Fantasy Star
Soldier" are bullshit:
- Turbo Technologies spit out a bunch of games to the press that they were
going to release, but very few actually ended up in translation...and I doubt
they ever intended to port everything they mentioned. They would have this
huge new list at every show there for awhile it seemed.
- If the game were translated like the pictures show, it was pretty much
translated...so why didn't they release it rather than bland shooters like
Super Air Zonk and TerraForming? This game was a top tier-rated soft in
Japan...and the other two were bottom tier.
- There isn't any sort of trademark on the title nor any mention of Turbo
Technologies in the copyrights at the bottom of the title screen.
Additionally, this game would have been most likely a 1993 release so the
copyright would have been changed to reflect this on Hudson's line at least.
- Finally, it's just too damned easy to doctor screenshots nowadays, so I
have a hard time believe stuff as shaky as this. Call me a cynic if you will.
