Just wanted to make a thread about one of my favorite of the lesser known NES games. It's Chitei Senkuu VAZOLDER
Also known as WURM: Journey to the Center of the Earth (Also a cool title)

It's about a cute girl named Moby who's in charge of the crew of a machine called VAZOLDER, who has to venture deep underground to find the missing crews of the other Vazolders who got lost earlier. Among them is her boyfriend too. In their quest they get involved in the secret war between two underground races.

It's got side scroller shooter sections, on-foot exploration, text adventure sections, first person sections, and lots of cutscenes. It was really a cinematic experience!

The music is also kickass!

Moby is cute and she reminds me of green hair Samus.

The ending is kind of melancholic.

Thanks for reading!

I like how her headset looks like a tiara.
Has this oldschool fantasy anime look despite being sci-fi

I like how you have to chat with your crew to figure out an enemyโ€™s weak point before you can destroy it. Very Star Trek. Also all the 80s anime charm is completely lost on the US box art but you knew that already

Look what they did to my girl.
Though I'll admit it was the localized title what first intrigued me about the game.

She too can't decide whether her hair is blonde or green.

I couldn't find a proper scan of this so I tried to deskew it in photoshop from a photo.
I think I'm gonna have it printed because I'm a sucker for posters of obscure media with cute girls.

How major are the shmup parts? Looks fun but I don't really like shmups.

It's more like a run n' gun because the screen doesn't autoscroll. Those are the main sections but there really is a bunch of everything.
