Flame Dragon 2: Legend of Golden Castle is a turn-based tactical role-playing computer game published by Dynasty International Information, a Taiwanese company. It was released in 1995 and is the second game in the series.
It is available only in Chinese, but gained some international popularity because of its attractive graphics (in DOS game standard) and excellent game mechanics. The first installment, Flame Dragon: Demon's Seal, is relatively unknown outside of Taiwan/China and the third installment, Flame Dragon Plus: Marks of Wind, never gained the same interest due to a significantly less smooth interface.
The game bears some similarity to games such as Final Fantasy Tactics. However, it is distinguished by its combat cut scenes, which are reminiscent of Japanese manga and evoke a comic strip feel. They have caused some people to mistakenly take it for a Japanese game, however it was developed in Taiwan.
The game involves falling blocks of hands displaying the rock, paper, and scissors signs, which fall three at a time. In a similar manner to Tetris, the player can rotate the blocks to stack them, using pieces that defeat other pieces (e.g. paper over rock) to eliminate stacks. Doing so adds garbage pieces onto the opponent's screen to make it more difficult for them to eliminate their stacks of blocks. The objective is to fill up the opponent's screen up with blocks so that additional ones can no longer fit. Each character has two special attacks which can be used when large combinations are completed. Once in each round each player can also use a bucket of water that can transform a cursed character into their alternate form, which weakens their attacks until the effect wears off. This does not affect Akane or the Gambling King.

Game developers Sting' were contracted by the publishing comglomerate Kadokawa Shoten for a tie-in game for their gaming magazine Marukatsu Super Famicom, which had recently just started pushing a new mascot named Ruka (with an accompanying mini manga in each issue) to try and help boost sales of the magazine. Rather than create a new game from scratch, Sting opted to re-brand the already existing "The Jetsons: Invasion of the Planet Pirates" game they had released the year before, which had not been released in Japan. The gameplay and level design between the two games is ultimately the same, though the story, sprites, and artwork were completely redone, as well as music.

Heisei Tensai Bakabon: Susume! Bakabons is a competitive falling-block puzzle game based on the 1990 animated series Heisei Tensai Bakabon. Pairs of blocks in four colors drop from the top of the screen, and the goal is to line up two or more blocks of the same color, with another pair of a different matching color at either end. Any blocks on top of the ones cleared will fall into the open space, potentially comboing together into chains. Clearing multiple sets of blocks in a combo or chain will send garbage blocks to the opponent's playfield, and also charge up a super move that triggers automatically at a certain threshold which can clear a large number of blocks from the playfield.
The game has a single-player story mode in which Bakabon's dad, refusing to wake up in the morning, gets sucked up by his wife's vacuum cleaner and sent to a strange puzzle world where he must defeat the other characters from the show in puzzle battles. There is also a two-player versus mode with nine playable characters.
Dekitate High School is a Super Famicom video game that was released to an exclusively Japanese market in 1995 and was considered to be the first "high school simulation" video game to be released for the Super Famicom. Famed Japanese illustrator Nishiki Yoshimune would draw the cover art for the game while the actual character design was done by the in-house staff at C-Lab.
The game involves going through a day of high school in Japan as a teacher while managing a star pupil to good grades and popularity. Players can even build their own high schools for the purpose of gameplay, making this game similar to SimCity. A massive amount of yen is given at the start; so players can assign all the classes and even create yards of grass for students to loiter in between classes. Socializing with an assigned student will be more than just teaching her kanji and arithmetic lessons. Menus and multiple choices are used to get through the game with a first-person perspective.
Caravan Shooting Collection is a 1995 Super Famicom compilation of classic shoot 'em up games from 1985 to 1987 that were originally released on the Nintendo Entertainment System.

All three of these games were the subjects of the Hudson All-Japan Caravan Festival, which for a long time hosted a new Hudson shoot 'em up every year and traveled around Japan with competitors in different prefectures attempting to earn the highest scores. The game would then be available for sale shortly before or after the competition, which helped raise its profile.
