    Just a heads up, #Super Fighter Team is now taking pre-orders for their Sega Genesis/Mega Drive RPGs #Beggar Prince, #Legend of Wukong, and #Star Odyssey. If you pre-order Beggar Prince it'll ship out this year, but for the other two won't start shipping out till 2017.

    For those who don't know, Beggar Prince and Legend of Wukong are Taiwanese RPGs that Brandon Cobb, a.k.a. Super Fighter Team, decided to localize for English-speaking audiences roughly 10 years after the fact in 2006 and 2008 respectively. I believe this'll be Beggar Prince's 5th run and Legend of Wukong's 3rd run on cartridge.

    Star Odyssey was a Japanese RPG that was scheduled for US release in the early '90s but was canceled. However, as with Earthbound Beginnings, all the localization work was already done. Brandon Cobb managed to get his hands on a build of it, and contacted the current license holder to get it released 20 years later in 2011. I believe this'll be its 3rd run.

    The cartridges pretty pricey at 63 dollars for US addresses and 70 dollars outside of the US. So for those who might not be so hardcore to drop ~200 bucks to get all 3, you can also buy the digital bundle for PC or Mac and get all 3 for just 20 bucks.

    I personally picked up Beggar Prince during its 2nd run in '08, and meant to get Legend of Wukong as well but waited too long and missed the boat. Eventually I forgot about the company as I stopped using the email I used to subscribe to their newsletter, but as it turns out, they've been really busy and never stopped releasing games. So now I need to decide whether I actually wanna pick up Legend of Wukong or not... That 20-dollar digital pack looks pretty appealing as well.
