The Neo Geo classic game Magician Lord is getting a tentative fan port to the NEC SuperGrafx console. This is an impressive feat, as the SuperGrafx was a commercial failure and Magician Lord was previously a Neo Geo exclusive title.
The fan port, created by homebrew coder @Ryusennin, is able to closely replicate the original Neo Geo version, with the added bonus of having multiple layers of parallax scrolling - more than the original game. While the demo currently lacks sound, it showcases the technical prowess of the fan developer in bringing this classic 2D platformer to a less powerful console.
This isn't the first time Magician Lord has been ported by fans, as there was also a recent SNES fan port. The game remains a beloved Neo Geo title, and this SuperGrafx port demonstrates the continued passion of the retro gaming community to preserve and expand access to classic games across different platforms.
