An unofficial translation was released in 2009. This is not the first time that Metal Storm's Japanese release has been translated. The final boss battle and the ending text is changed from the U.S. The retro-bit release is based on the Japanese version with its color scheme, introduction and credits. The English version also changed the color of the M-308 from white to orange and the background colors and lowers the difficulty compared to the Japanese version. The English version eliminated this introduction and the opening credits. The Japanese version tells the story of the game with five screens of text and six animations and displays the credits. The US version has no introductory sequence in the game, it shows you the title screen followed by an attact mode showing gameplay. This is unusual given that the game was developed in Japan (by Tantex) and released by Irem in both parts of the world. One of the big draws of this retro-bit version is that it is based on the Japanese version, which was released after the U.S. This may be the first time you can fill a hole in your NES collection for a price ($44.99 for Standard Edition, $69.99 for Collectors Edition) for less than the cost of the original game. Reproductions of games from companies like iam8bit reproduced rather common cartridges like Street Fighter II and Mega Man X for the SNES. The game did not sell in huge numbers, hence it going for rather high prices for a bare cartridge these days. When you flip upwards, you will walk upside down on the "ceiling." Flipping downards will let you walk back on the "ground." The game integrates this mechanic rather well into what could have been little more than a Robotech-inspired platforer. It is notable for its gravity-flipping game mechanic. Metal Storm is an interesting NES side-scroller from 1991. Can retro-bit do the same with its release of Metal Storm? Let's find out. Hyperkin can put out a decent controller, so I guess it has graduated, just barely, from the "Horsemen". They are hardly alone among lousy retro gaming product makers, but they are the most prominent. I have often in conversation referred to retro-bit as one of the "Four Horsemen of the Retro-Gaming Apocalypse", one of four well-known companies (Hyperkin, atgames and Gamerz-Tek) that have consistently released garbage retro video game products over the years. Recently, the relatively uncommon but well-regarded NES game Metal Storm received a release from retro-bit and I had the chance for it to come into my possession, so let me use this blog entry to review the game and explain why I had the opportunity to briefly handle it. This of course requires contacting the rights holder and negotiating for permission to release more copies of their game. These games would come packaged as "Anniversary Editions" or "Collector's Editions" and come in packaging and with extras that would easily eclipse the original game's. Recently the retro gaming market has shown such strength and durability that legitimate companies have felt there was sufficient interest in making new copies of original games.
