Wait for me, Momoko-chan

“Firework Thrower Kantaro’s 53 Stations of the Tokaido” was released by SUNSOFT in 1986 for an 8-bit home console.

This is an action game where Kantaro, a fireworks thrower, travels to Edo to launch fireworks over the Sumida River, where his fiancée, Momoko-chan, is waiting, while fending off enemies along the way.

Will Kantaro safely reach Edo and be able to launch fireworks over the Sumida River?”

Hamster Corporation’s Console Archives series of re-releases faithfully reproduces classic console games for modern platforms.
