"Witcher" on NES (just a silly idea)

[mikusz3]

Lately I watched a video made by a Polish Youtuber ZagrajnikTV about the so-called Witcher on Pegasus (the Polish version of Famicom).

Zapomniany Wiedźmin na Pegasusa (retro) "Forgotten Witcher on Famicom (retro)"
(subtitles for this video are available, but for non-Polish speakers, you might want to translate the subtitles to English)

I know it's a stupid question, but wouldn't you mind if the game like this fictional "Super Killer Kaibutsu Mahoutsukai Onna" would be made?
I mean, I know we cannot use third party IPs (we could of course design an original one), but have you ever wondered what would it be like?

We could always go for original character designs, background, different 8 bit soundtrack... You know the point...

Anybody has interesting ideas on how to make it a reality?

The pictures on the attachment are the snaps from the mentioned video (the third one being the collage of "stages")

I wouldve pictured a witcher demake as more of an action RPG like willow, but that could be fun too

I've honestly been thinking more of a Metroidvania, but right now I'm working on one small original platformer. Alas, the beginnings are always difficult, so it might take me a year or so to get it complete...
More on that in later post.

Sounds exciting! I'm picturing also like either Zelda / Zelda2 style game or Metroidvania style platformer action game.

Honestly been thinking about it as well...

Also, what I like the most in that "April Fools video about Witcher for NES" is ability to change armor in-game...
yellow - fire redundant
green - acid redundant
purple - magic redundant

If A would be for jumping and B would be for attacking, then I believe that Select would do the job well.

You could even have inventory menu to change gear - not that I know how to do it (yet).
