Power Blade (1990, Taito) - NES

Sharp Pixels vs. AV Famicom Composite via Sony PVM-20L2MD

Rolled credits on this one with my kiddo today and it made me miss the blog. Color differences are due to the NES’ inconsistent color palette on various displays.

Worked on making an intro cutscene for the train boss for today's #NightmareKart dev thread!

The actual cutscene itself is a placeholder, but the actual functionality to load and play it (complete with a cutscene skip) is in, meaning that a proper cutscene can easily be added in later :)
