Goemon Arrives in Japan
Konami's Goemon 5 is the next title in line for a Nintendo 64 release in Japan while US gamers await International Superstar Soccer 64.
The Nintendo 64 still has but a limited list of titles ready for gameplay. Consequently, gamers on both sides of the Pacific are anxiously awaiting the release of Zelda 64, and later, the release of Mother 3 for the 64DD.
Meanwhile, Japanese gamers will be getting their next N64 title on August 7th when Konami's 3-D action-platform game Goemon 5 is released. Just a day later, gamers in the States will receive Konami's first Nintendo 64 title - International Superstar Soccer.
A Konami spokesman told GS News today that Mystical Ninja 64 (Goemon 5's name in the US) will hopefully be released prior to Christmas (or early in the first quarter of 1998 - at the latest), although no firm release date has been determined.
