"Dragon Spirit"
11/14/24 • 88 min
Tonight we are reflecting on Dragon Spirit: The New Legend, a 1989 arcade port of the 1987 vertical shooter Dragon Spirit by Namco. Namco was responsible for other arcade classics like Pacman, Galaga and Dig Dug to name a few. The NES port was developed by Now Production and published by Namco in Japan but published by Bandai in North America. Now Production also created NES titles including Yo! Noid and entries 2 & 3 of the Adventure Island series. Tonight our visiting Deacon is Jeff Gabor.
The miNEStry founders, Archbishop Dracul and Father Avram, seek to inspire their 8-bit parishioners through methodical and ceremonial scrutiny of the library of games on the Nintendo Entertainment System.
