''Zoda's Revenge: StarTropics II'' is a video game released only in North America in 1994. It was developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System as the sequel to the 1990 game, ''StarTropics''. It is the second-to-last licensed game released on the NES (''Wario's Woods'' being the last), and the final game developed by Nintendo exclusively for the NES (''Wario's Woods'' having also been released for the Super Nintendo), excluding re-releases and international distributions of others also by Nintendo. It was released on the Wii Virtual Console on December 29, 2008 in North America and on July 10, 2009 in the PAL regions. It was released on the Wii U Virtual Console in Europe on September 3, 2015 and in Australia on September 4, 2015. ==Gameplay== ''Zoda's Revenge'' runs through nine chapters, although the first is story-only. Each chapter besides the first takes place in a different time and place and holds one or more bosses, multiple areas, many weapons, medicine, obstacles and puzzles. While the original ''StarTropics'' took place almost exclusively on a series of tropical islands, its sequel takes place in a variety of locales, such as a caveman era, Ancient Egypt, the Wild West, the Medieval Times, and England in old time periods. During the game, Mike meets many important historical and fictional figures throughout his journey through time. These consist of Cleopatra, Merlin, Sherlock Holmes, Leonardo da Vinci and King Arthur, who help him to achieve his goal of finding the Tetrads (resembling ''Tetris'' pieces, and renamed "Blocks" in the Virtual Console release〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://nerdburglars.net/videogame/zodas-revenge-startropics-ii )〕) and defeating Zoda's three clones. ''Zoda's Revenge'' runs on a modified engine of the original ''StarTropics'', with health continuing to be measured by ''The Legend of Zelda'' style heart containers. Unlike the original ''StarTropics'', Mike is no longer limited to moving in "squares", and now can move in eight different directions and can change directions in mid-jump. He now uses various weapons, including Tink's Axe, Cleopatra's Bronze Dagger, and Leonardo's Katana, as well as an upgradable projectile magic attack that he learns from Merlin called the Psychic Shock Wave. As opposed to the Island Yo-Yo, Shooting Star and the Super Nova he had in the first game, only the psychic weapons are affected by the number of heart containers Mike has filled. Occasionally, Mike encounters enemies that react differently depending on which weapon is used to attack. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zoda's Revenge: StarTropics II」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
