Rastan! The CLASSIC Hack and Slash Arcade Beat Em Up from Taito on the Type X2 NesicaxLive Service!
There was LESS THAN ZERO chance I was going to do a series on the Taito Type X2 and the NESiCAxLive service without talking about Rastan! He is retro gaming royalty and the Rastan series (ok not the second game) is hands down my favorite franchise from Taito! Just an absolute classic hack and slash if there ever was one!

I don't ALWAYS have to show OLD arcade hardware on the channel! I can certainly show newer arcade hardware too...so here we are with an entire series on the Taito Type X2 arcade platform as well as the NesicaxLive service!
Up Next; Rastan! Also known as Rastan Saga in Japan. I fell in love with this game almost two decades ago at a place in Okemo, Vermont called Village Pizza. Ski all day, go get pizza and play some Rastan! It's retrogaming perfection in my opinion! Just pure 2D arcade hack and slash fun from Taito!
Is it a beat em up? Kinda!
