Hey, so here’s the thing—ININ just dropped some news out of nowhere, and I had to share it. They’ve got this bundle coming out, Parasol Superstars. Yeah, it’s got Parasol Stars and Spica Adventure together, dropping digitally on September 16. Oh, and there’s a physical version too, through Strictly Limited Games. I mean, check it out if you’re into that sort of stuff.
So, let’s talk about this “two-for-one deal”—not their words, mine, obviously. There’s something nostalgic, you know? Parasol Stars throws back the classic bubble dragons—Bub and Bob—but now they’re like human? Still trying to wrap my head around that. You get to play as these dudes with magical parasols. Yep, parasols to block attacks and fling enemies around. It sounds wild, right?
And then there’s Spica Adventure. Ever heard of it? Honestly, neither had I. It’s got this girl, Nico, prancing around in space with a parasol. Why not, right? Apparently, she battles these toy-like enemies, very Japanese-style. Colorful chaos ensues. Super cool ’cause this was never released here before. Some hidden gem, it seems.
Now, what’s in this funky package? Well, both games get a bit of a facelift for modern consoles—controller support and all that jazz. There’s even a local co-op for Parasol Stars. Imagine that—good old-fashioned couch gaming. They’re throwing in a Special Edition too, with a History Artbook and a Best of Soundtrack. Classic collector bait, if you ask me.
Anyway, pre-orders are live for the PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. Should you hit that buy button? Maybe. Maybe not. But I guess it’s worth a peek, especially if you love quirky, retro vibes like this.
Okay, I wandered a bit there, but this is really something if you’re into these classic revivals. Late-night gaming sessions, here we come!
