I have realised that using the various emulators for GBA, it's possible to play the following versions of Fantasy Zone and its spin-offs:
  • Fantasy Zone on MSX via MSXAdvance
  • Fantasy Zone on Master System via SMSAdvance
  • Fantasy Zone (U) (Tengen) on NES via PocketNES
  • Fantasy Zone (J) (Sunsoft) ơn NES vía PocketNES
  • Fantasy Zone (J) (Sunsoft, Neo Classic mod) on NES via PocketNES (from ROMHacking.net, improves the font and colour palettes)
  • Fantasy Zone (J) on PC Engine via PCEAdvance (a bit slow)
  • Fantasy Zone Gear on Game Gear via SMSAdvance
  • Fantasy Zone II - The Tears of Opa-Opa on Master System via SMSAdvance
  • Fantasy Zone II (J) - The Teardrop of Opa-Opa on NES via PocketNES
  • Space Fantasy Zone (J) (CD) (Unreleased) on PC Engine CD-ROM² via PCEAdvance
  • Opa Opa (J) on Master System via SMSAdvance
  • Galactic Protector (J) on Master System via SMSAdvance - well you can load it, but you can't play it since you need the paddle controller which isn't emulated
That's quite a list! It's only missing Fantasy Zone on X68000, Super Fantasy Zone on Megadrive, and Fantasy Zone Neo Classic from the PS2 Complete Collection.

There are actually 2 different versions of the first fantasy zone on the nes. The first version was developed and published by Sunsoft in 1988. The second version was developed by pixel and published by Tengen.

The Tengen version is pretty much concidered to be bloody awful while the Sunsoft version is rather good.

    Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
