Retrogaming graphics: Challenger (チャレンジャー)
Hudson Soft for Nintendo Famicom, 1985.
Japanese flyer, screens & art from the manual.Not one of the most known Famicom titles in the west, Challenger is a pretty popular game in Japan. If you want to discover more about this good 8-bit title please take a look at the links below. As a graphic curiosity note that the look of the big boss is clearly based in Darth Vader, and the princess waiting to be rescued is a japanized version of Leia - this time saved by an Indiana Jones-inspired hero.
