I knew I've seen that painting auctioned on Yahoo Japan, but it didn't show up on their internal search engine. They tend to delist sold auctions after some time has passed. In fact, Google is how I f ... |

Thanks! I suspected the first artwork was for some kind of Arkanoid-esque game, but I didn't know Toaplan had made such a game. I mostly know them for their STGs and the Snow Bros. series.

Two more Kodama flyers are being auctioned, but I can't identify the source for either of them.

Looks like Kodama has done at least one artwork for a non-Konami game, Super Aleste.

I wish you the best of luck on this endeavor. The restoration looks pretty promising thus far and seeing how Nintendo seems intend on leaving this buried in VHS-only limbo for some reason, someone's g ... |

Here's another one that almost slipped by me from the same seller. It's from Racin' Force, a 1994 game released exclusively for the arcades.

Liscensed game would be a waste of the chip.
Any chip like that would've been a waste on a developer like Color Dreams. I doubt that Hellraiser game ever made it pass the tech demo phase. |
