Retrogaming graphics: Challenger (チャレンジャー) 
Hudson Soft for Nintendo Famicom, 1985.
Japanese flyer, screens & art from the manual.

Not one of the most known Famicom titles in the west, Challenger is a pretty popular game in Japan. If you want to discover more about this good 8-bit title please take a look at the links below. As a graphic curiosity note that the look of the big boss is clearly based in Darth Vader, and the princess waiting to be rescued is a japanized version of Leia - this time saved by an Indiana Jones-inspired hero.

Sergio Ingravalle, author of this book, says:

“PIXELGALAXY is a book all about the Nintendo Gameboy and the pixel graphics. It includes its secret of success, an overview of the top games and takes a closer look at the graphics. For many people this book is full of nostalgia, a journey through time back to the childhood and an inspiration for designers, at the same time.”

Pixelgalaxy needs a publisher now. Let’s hope Sergio will find it soon so we can buy this rad complilation of great games and awesome pixel graphics!
