NES Works episode 106: Sesame Street 1-2-3, and Star Soldier
- Pronouns
- he/him
This week's public video gives us the start of NES Works 1989 with games from two new NES licensees. Neither are particularly good or memorable games so this is a dull start to 1989. Hi-Tech Expressions with Rare developing with Zippo Games gives us Sesame Street 1-2-3 which was the first third-party edutainment title and the first since Donkey Kong Math. And Taxan brings over Hudson's Star Soldier to NES. Star Soldier is hopelessly outdated by 1989 standards and wasn't exactly cutting edge in 1986 either. Taxan would bring more exciting fare to NES though. Patrons get two more NES Works episodes, one on two good sports games from Tecmo (Tecmo Baseball and Tecmo Bowl), and the other on Ultima: Exodus, the first proper role playing game on NES and one of the first RPGs on console in the West (Sega would beat it with Phantasy Star and maybe Miracle Warriors, for Master System)
