Quarth… not only the glorious city of the far East in the world of Game of Thrones, but also a GameBoy title from ’90 where you shoot shapes from a spaceship.
Connection? I’m thinking no, other than the name of course. I don’t really remember Konami’s Quarth for the GameBoy, but it is kind of interesting. Your job it to fill in geometric shapes by shooting them while on board a tiny spaceship. Yep.
SNK/Playmore continues its support of the Wii VC this week as Real Bout Fatal Fury 2 hears the opening bell and the terrifying Denpa Men arrive on the 3DS. They actually don’t look all that scary, but there’s something about that name…
