NES game Mystery World Dizzy finally releases after more than two decades
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 4 Comments
Mystery World Dizzy was initially planned to hit the NES in 1993 as a port of the arcade game Fantasy World Dizzy. More than two decades later, it has finally been released in celebration of the character’s 30th birthday. You can play it in your browser right here. A Kickstarter campaign will also be taking place soon to offer an NES cartridge version.
Adding on to that, the National Videogame Arcade in Britain also has a new exhibition in place featuring organization sketches, design documents, and a recreation of the team’s original work studio. And if you want even more than that, you can pick up the book Let’s Go Dizzy: The Story of The Oliver Twins with commentary from Philip and Andrew Oliver.

Oldest Legend of Zelda screenshot paints a different picture of the original NES title
Posted on 7 years ago by Zack in General Nintendo | 6 Comments
An image from the newly released Hyrule Encyclopedia has given us a glimpse into what the original Legend of Zelda looked like during a very early stage of development.
The screenshot, which is from an extremely early build of the game, shows what appears to be a dungeon select screen in a first-person view. Obviously, the original Legend of Zelda contained neither of these features, so this would likely have been taken during a time when the development of the game had only just begun. Zeldapower.com posted the image on Twitter, stating the screenshot is from a “super old build” of the game.
