Checking out the collection art galleries and playing a little bit of Chou Makaimura aka Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts in Capcom Generation: Dai 2 Shuu Makai to Kishi aka Capcom Generation 2 for PS1, in the emulator duckstation!
"Dai 2 Shuu Makai to Kishi" means "Volume 2 Makai and Knights," Makai being a demon realm in Japanese folklore. It's a collection of the first three games in the Makaimura aka Ghosts 'n Goblins series by Capcom, with bonus art galleries and stuff.
I started trying to play through Chou Makaimura aka Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts for the SNES, but converted here for PS1. Might run a bit faster than the SNES version, but with slightly less saturation? Still kind slow though, with super floaty double (for some reason 'p') jumping. Can't throw weapons vertically now like you could in Ghouls 'n Ghosts. ; P And it just doesn't have that super-customized sadism that the first two games had, feels a lot more bland and average.
Anyway quit at the first boss 'cause this game also introduces big hit flashes on the giant bosses, which my eyeballs do not appreciate.
