It feels like Famicom is kind of playing catch-up with SG-1000 this episode, as every game appearing here arrived on shelves in the wake of a Sega-published equivalent—either the exact same game (as in Space Invaders), one exploring the same root concept in different ways (Soccer), or a game with almost suspicious conceptual and mechanical similarities (Formation Z).

Of course, the Nintendo version of these games absolutely eclipsed Sega's, right? Well... maybe not always.

Production notes: NES and Famicom footage in this episode was captured from an @analogueinc Nt Mini via RGB out. Arcade footage (when possible) was captured from MiSTer (special thanks: @MiSTerAddons). Standard definition video upscaled to 720 with xRGB Mini Framemeister and @retrotink339 5X.
