A great success in Japan but kinda a bit of a flop here in North America, it could have been one of your first introductions to the Magical Girl genre as you play as Yuko, who becomes the Valis warrior to save the world! It was essentially a somewhat slow side-scrolling platformer starring a Japanese school girl who is gonna save the world with her magical powers!

I'm not gonna lie, I never played it until a re-release later on in like 2021? 2022? Did you play it when it came out?

I didn't play this one but the video reminded me of El Viento, a game I completely forgot about until now. It was a similar sidescroller but the girl had boomerangs and was bad ass

One of the Valis games is on the Switch's Genesis VC. That is the extent of my experience with the series.

The whole series is on the Switch. Also, they re-relesed the cart collection for Genesis this year too.

Wait. Hold up. It was Super Valis IV for the SNES. My bad.

It wasn't something I'd pay for if it wasn't already free with NSO. Doubt I'd've beaten it without the save states/rewind feature.

Too bad RB is no longer selling it. Ebay is scalping the crap out of it. It's going for $300 now.
