It does look and sound great

Shadow of the Beast was relatively popular in Japan.

>Sega see Nintendo hire British company to make DKC
>Sega angry but Sega smart
>Sega hire a British company too
Anyway, they realized they couldn't compare to British microcomputah developahs

I like Sonic 3D Blast. Volcano Valley sucks if you lose the fire shield though, but that's a skill issue.

Euros and Brits excelled at children's characters in other and olders forms of media but none of this material or talent was ever really used as a basis when videogame technology was introduced, so you had a new school of artists and designers (a lot of whom weren't very good and probably got work because they were cheap).
