In his weakness, a rival demon named Phalanx ambushes Firebrand and takes all the Crests except the Fire Crest, which shattered into five shards.Īs the game begins, Phalanx has already begun using the Crests to become the ruler of the Demon Realm, while Firebrand is imprisoned in an amphitheater and made to fight the zombified Demon Dragon. Seeking infinite power, Firebrand challenges a Demon Dragon for the Crest of Heaven and is victorious, though badly wounded. The demons of the Demon Realm have long fought each other for possession of the Crests, five of which have since fallen into the hands of a red demon named Firebrand. When all crests are combined, the Crest of Infinity will appear, allowing its holder infinite power and the ability to conquer all realms with it. The game's story revolves around the Crests, six magical stones which preside over their respective elements ( Fire, Earth, Water, Air, Time and Heaven). It is the third video game starring Firebrand (an enemy character from the Ghosts 'n Goblins series, known as 'Red Arremer' in the Japanese version), following Gargoyle's Quest and Gargoyle's Quest II. As a perk for subscribers, each month Nintendo plans to release either NES or SNES games on the service with the enhanced features noted above.Demon's Crest, known in Japan as Demon's Blazon, is a side-scrolling platform video game developed and published by Capcom for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It is required for online play on the Switch.

It will retail for the rather reasonable price of $29.99. The company is also releasing an SNES controller compatible with the Switch. Nintendo says that SNES games through Nintendo Switch Online will support both a rewind feature as well as local and online co-op. By the way, unlike with the NES game releases, this is the same lineup that they are getting in Japan.

There’s a little something for everyone… and then some. I must say, that’s a strong starting lineup. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.Disclosure: We may earn a commission from links on this page
