Sailor Moon S (cartouche uniquement)

The ice castle stage looks gorgeous on a CRT, and the sprite work for each Sailor Guardian is incredibly detailed for a Super Famicom game. I've been having a blast with the different locales, from temples to frozen fortresses. This cart-only copy arrived clean and played perfectly on my first try.

The fighting engine in this Sailor Moon cart is surprisingly solid for a licensed game, with responsive controls that make the combos feel satisfying. Each character's special attacks sparkle with authentic anime flair, and the varied stages keep things fresh.

Bought this just for the nostalgia, and the cart itself is in great shape. The ice castle stage looks way better on a CRT than I remembered, and the sparkle effects on the special moves are a nice touch. It's a fun beat-'em-up even if you're not a Sailor Moon fan.
