{"product_id":"firestriker-super-nintendo","title":"Firestriker - Super Nintendo","description":"\u003cp\u003eFireStriker for the Super Nintendo is one of the most genuinely original games in the console's library — a title that looks exactly like a fantasy RPG on the surface and plays like nothing else in the entire SNES catalog. Long ago, four kingdoms — Wind, Fire, Earth, and Water — competed for the Trialight, an elemental orb of fire created by the Arch-Mage Wylde. The Kingdom of Wind united the four tribes under a golden age of peace, but Wylde had a hidden purpose: he conjured four monsters to destroy all four kingdoms at once. Now Slader, the last FireStriker and the only warrior who can wield the Trialight, sets out alone to free the fallen kingdoms and destroy Wylde.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes FireStriker extraordinary is its mechanic. Despite the overhead Zelda-like presentation — heart meter, sword-wielding hero, RPG visual style — this is not an action RPG. The Trialight is a blazing ball of fire that behaves exactly like a pinball, and FireStriker is essentially a fantasy Breakout game. Slader freely walks across each overhead arena and strikes the Trialight with his sword to control its trajectory, bouncing it into enemies and destructible blocks to clear the stage. A secondary guardian character protects the bottom of the screen from the ball escaping — in two-player co-op, one player controls Slader while the other controls the goalkeeper, making this one of the most inventive co-op experiences on the platform. A VS mode pits two players against each other in a soccer-style match, each trying to score the Trialight through the other's goal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased in Japan as Holy Striker — renamed for North America due to Nintendo's policy on religious references — FireStriker was developed by Axes Art Amuse and published by DTMC in October 1994. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJapanese Title:\u003c\/strong\u003e ホーリーストライカー (Holy Striker)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRating:\u003c\/strong\u003e N\/A (pre-ESRB release)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlatform:\u003c\/strong\u003e Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Action \/ Breakout \/ Fantasy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1–2 players (co-op and versus)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDeveloper:\u003c\/strong\u003e Axes Art Amuse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e DTMC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1994 (North American release: October 1994)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly multiple item orders that combine to $120 or more get free shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pre-Owned","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43030758228053,"sku":null,"price":144.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/7673\/7365\/files\/E9DBCD34-60E4-4453-8102-8C5378F80ECD.jpg?v=1790042805","url":"https:\/\/hifilofi.shop\/products\/firestriker-super-nintendo","provider":"HiFi LoFi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
