Well, I was linked to
this site because a friend said "DOWNLOAD THE S&P OST, IT'S DA BEST LOL!!" and I happen to quite agree, then I read the description of the game in the same page and it looks to be damn good. Question is, I can't find the ROM image, so does anyone know where to find it?
Also,
amazing character design.

I got my rom image in a store. It came in a box and plays on an N64.

You mean to tell me they still make those things?
wow, man.
I thought that sort of thing went out of style once people learned how to watch movies on the internet without the use of those weirdo newfangled doohickey dee vee dee and vee aych ess thingies.
Will wonders never cease.

It's a really nice illustration for sure, but character design? Looks like any other thing coming out of japan.

... In a store? It's Japanese, and it won't go for less than U$S 60 (which count for me as roughly 194 pesos and then some depending on shipping costs). Plus, I would need a N64, those are pretty expensive for my pocket too. I remember I wanted it badly when I was 10, but the need for it weared off pretty quickly with the Dreamcast, not that it has anything to do with anything.
On the bright side, I finally found it and downloaded it, and now I'm trying to get through the control setup which is almost ambidextrous (I have a DualShock for my emulation needs).
On the dark side, it has some emulation problems with spare seconds of the entire screen getting black, which won't allow me to get past the third level because of the frequency of the glitch. I'm not sure if it's because of the emulator or because of my overly-shitty PC, but the fact is that it gets unplayable at that point.
Oh, and for the character design, it's true that it doesn't seem too unique, but works really well for me; it looks like it's even based off of the actual in-game designs with those thin elbow-joints and everything. Cool and badass, that's the way to go with action games.

You have to turn on 'Force Alpha Blending' which is in the 'advanced' section of the Graphics settings.
And yes, this game is awesome. I'm trying to one-life it on hard. So far I can get to the final stage but I die before the boss.

Actually, regarding that certain character design, there's an artbook by the designer coming out in the US, soon!

Incredible variation in style, great work.
Oh, an I just tried that setting, it looks like it works fine now (I still have to play further to see if there's any underperformance or bottleneck). Thank you so much for the quick and precise feedback, UCHU.
