    I love the art and sound of PC98 games, I just wish they weren’t all so full of porn.

    Ah, I recognize the style but didn’t realize that it was specific to one computer. It’s cool to see various niche traced back to where they came from, over 20 years later and one PC is still having ripple effects on art today
