Another retro game post from me, I’m just posting my collection. If you want me to stop just say! I’m using my own knowledge of each game and promise not to use Wikipedia so corrections please. They are games i used to own and have a sentimental attachment to.
This is a very rare Japanese reviewers or promotional copy of Vib Ribbon. You play a wire frame rabbit jumping over obstacles in time with the music as you “evolve”. What was really cool about this game is that you could put your own music CDs in and it would randomly generate a level for you. What makes this even rarer is that the factory sealed tab is upside down! The New York Museum of Modern Art has a copy of this game as a permanent exhibition as a display of late 90s digital expression. The music from this game has been living rent free in my head for nearly 30 years.
“If you want me to stop just say!”
Can we say the opposite? Posts like this are hella interesting and we need more!
Vib Ribbon has been on my list for a looooong time. I wanna check it out but I don’t wanna emulate it, I wanna play it for real… I’ll snag a copy one day!
I’m interested in how collectors categorize their collections. How does it qualify as a rare miss seal and not a resealed copy?
I heard of this game a few years ago but it’s really cool, feels like one of those early gaming experiments that no major company will ever try today.
IIRC it came out at a similar time as Parappa the Rapper, it was sensible that Vib Ribbon did it differently.
Actually made by the same devs during the same year that um jammer lammy came out.
Absolute genius Matsuura during its prime
