Let’s talk about this new drop… or, well, actually, it’s sort of an old thing made new. So, ININ is rolling out Parasol Superstars. Wait a sec. September 16 is the date, right? That’s when you can snag it digitally—or if you’re into the whole physical vibe, Strictly Limited Games has you covered. I mean, who doesn’t love the feel of an actual game disc in their hands, am I right?
So, here’s the deal… it’s two adventures in one. Imagine the whimsical world of Parasol Stars mashed up with the cosmic chaos of Spica Adventure. Together. It’s like peanut butter and jelly, but, you know, with more pixels.
Parasol Stars! Ah, the memories. Bub and Bob—or is it Bubby and Bobby now?—are back, but they’re all humanized. Thank Taito for this gem, finally coming to modern consoles. And yes, they’re still wielding those iconic magic parasols. Who even thought of using a parasol as a weapon? Genius or just plain wild.
Then there’s Spica Adventure. Honestly, it’s this hidden jewel from Japan. Nico, that girl in pink, her crazy parasol antics take you into a wonderfully chaotic space adventure. Toy enemies and all. Seriously, someone must’ve been high on creativity when this was cooked up.
And oh! Here’s a funky picture to feast your eyes on. Yeah, I probably should’ve segued into that, but whatever, visual delight right here!
Okay, let’s break down Parasol Superstars. Two platformers back in action. Parasol Stars, given a shiny facelift, and Spica Adventure, gracing Western consoles for the first time. Modern updates, controls fit for today (bye-bye awkward controller fumbling), and some co-op shenanigans if you’ve got a fellow nostalgia enthusiast around.
Looking for some extra geeky goodies? Dive into the Special Edition with its history-packed artbook and a soundtrack that’s basically the best of both worlds.
Now, go ahead and check those pre-orders. PlayStation 5 or Nintendo Switch—take your pick. Here’s another image, because why not?
And a few more for good measure. Can you imagine how many people had to get involved just to grab these snapshots? Anyway, keep your parasol handy. You’re going to need it.
