Famicom Mukashibanashi: Shin Onigashima - Kouhen
1987
Shin Onigashima is a two disk adventure game released on the Famicom Disk System. Despite being first-party software, it was never released outside of Japan. A two-disk adventure game, Shin Onigashima (or to give it its full title "Famicom Mukashi Banashi: Shin Onigashima", or "Famicom Fairy Tales: New Oni Island" thereabouts) was released in two parts: The first on September 4th 1987 and the second on September 20 1987. This latter part needs a cleared save file from the first part to play, meaning it is functionally an expansion of that game. The game is depicted like other adventure games for the system, such as Portopia or Hokkaido Serial Murders, though with a far gentler fairy tale presentation rather than a gritty crime thriller. The game's story is based on popular centuries-old Japanese folklore, such as the story of Momotaro and tales depicting the demonic Oni and their mischief. The original characters created for this game would be later referenced by future Nintendo products with retrospective elemFamicom Mukashibanashi: Shin Onigashima - Zenpen

Mahjong Kazoku
1987
Mahjong Kazoku is a Mahjong game released only in Japan for the Famicom Disk System. Mahjong Kazoku ("Mahjong Family") is a standard Mahjong simulation game for Nintendo's Famicom Disk System. It is a one-on-one version of the game, rather than the standard four-player board game arrangement, and it incorporates many of the various and byzantine scoring rules of the game. Irem developed and published the game but left a mysterious licensing credit to Ox Inc. on the title screen. It's possible the game is a port of an obscure Japanese Mahjong computer game, or at least borrows some of its coding for the AI opponent or scoring systems.Famicom Mukashibanashi: Shin Onigashima
