Hi Nightscrabbler! I'm really glad I hopped on here (it's been a verrrrrrrry long time since I have), because I saw your post! Most of this community has actually migrated over to a Discord server (the message boards of the future!!!) You can join in the conversations here: discord.gg/u5KVVgGC

Hey everyone! I was just reading an article on Kotaku about a new rewind feature coming to the NES games on Switch. In the article, StarTropics gets a special shoutout hinting at it's frustratingly difficult sections and player's tendencies to over-use the save-state feature. Here's a link to the article.

Hey Islanders!
Scotty D. here with a fresh update to the boards. I have now added a sub-section in the StarTropics & Zoda's Revenge area called "StarTropics In The Wild". This sub-section will be a place to share with us your links to articles, videos, and anything else that mentions or even features StarTropics in any way! Any appreciation and attention this game can get (and is then shared in our own respective networks by us) is great publicity for the game.
I hope this area gets utilized, as I've been seeing StarTropics pop up in the strangest and most unexpected places.
May the magic of the Southern Cross guide you, -Scotty D.

EVERYONE!!!! I was just watching a video on YouTube of a guy who plays Mario rom hacks and Super Mario Maker a bunch. In this video, he was playing some stages from a SMB3 hack called Mini Kaizo Bros 3. Just click the link and check it out!

Hi there, MegaHarv! Welcome to the Island! It's so good to see that people still seek out a fan community for this game. There is a fan-made game, but it is (at this point) still wildly incomplete. I'm not entirely certain how much work gellin has been able to put into it the past few years, but I remember him saying that his life was getting full, and the ST3 game was going to have to take a back-seat in the priority list for a while. There is a functional level-editor, however, which has been utilized by several of our members to create their own unique dungeons. Feel free to poke around the boards and try some of them out!

I'm not sure there is an option in the level editor to specify which character you can play...not even sure Mica is playable at all.

More than likely, that's the case, Hope. I've been on the lookout for any ST-related spirits as well, but have thus far been disappointed.

I got Smash too! I am loving it so far, even though I've only been able to play a few hours of it. I also got Diablo III for Switch and Megaman 11 as well.

Hey everyone!
With the holiday season now upon us, what are some games that you are hoping to receive this year? (assuming you've all been good boys and girls!) I'm looking forward to hopefully getting Diablo 3 for the Switch. It will be my first time playing a Diablo title and I've heard that it is a phenomenal experience. I'm also hoping to pick up Smash Ultimate with any money I get (or if someone really kind gets it for me!).

Welcome to the Island, tlk! While I'm sure the original creator of the game isn't currently actively working on the game, the dungeon creator is fully functional and there are threads dedicated to showing off your custom-created dungeons. It's an easy file to download, so give it a shot!

Welcome, Taku! I like the usage of the ST game logos in your SoundCloud page! Nice re-mixing of those styles!
