Episode Notes:

1. Games Covered:
Shining Wisdom (1995)
Magic Knight Rayearth (1995)
Iron Storm (1995)
Dragon Force (1996)
Albert Odyssey: Legend of Eldean (1996)
Sega Ages: Volume 1 (1997) (as Spaz)

2. Victor Ireland, the president of Working Designs, had a famous falling out with Bernie Stolar during both his tenures at Sony and Sega. The friction was so fierce, Ireland refused to publish more games for Sega while he was there.

3. Working Designs went out of business in 2005. A series of setbacks, poor sales, and the cost of Sony's approval process, ultimately did the company in.

4. While the Saturn versions of Lunar Silver Star and Lunar Eternal Blue remained in Japan, Working Designs did localize them for the Playstation.

5. There is no hyperbole with Dragon Force. Yes, it's that good. Yes, it's worth buying. And yes, it's one of the best games ever made.

6. Cadash is actually a Turbo Chip/Hucard game. I should have just said Turbografx 16 instead of Turbo CD.
