Avalon Hill's Planet Miners was ported to the Fujitsu FM-7 by Kiya Overseas and released as a type in program in a magazine. Predates M.U.L.E. and one of the earliest space trading games. Yours truly has preserved it. Enjoy! Link to download in reply.

Hello! If you like the scans please consider donating a little to my Ko-Fi page: ko-fi.com/japanesemagazines This is a very resource and time consuming process, even a little helps a lot, your appreciation is what pushes me forward. Thanks!

Early preview of Blazing Star for the #NeoGeo. The game was originally titled Pulstar Blast (mistranslated as "Palstar Brast"), since it was originally going to be a direct sequel to Pulstar. From issue 203 of the Gamest magazine, scans by @JapaneseMagScan. #Shmups #retrogaming

Sorry, but DDOS folks are back and knocked archive.org and openlibrary.org offline. @internetarchive is being cautious and prioritizing keeping data safe at the expense of service availability. Will share more as we know it.

Some early screens of Fatal Fury 3, from Gamest issue 138. The HUD looked similar to the previous game, and was overhauled for the final version. Thanks to @JapaneseMagScan for scanning!

Some of the earlier screens were also used for the final AES insert, typical SNK laziness :D
