God Slayer

God Slayer is the Japanese counterpart to Crystalis, released on the Famicon (the Japanese couterpart to the NES) also in 1990. Not surprisingly, some clever marketing guy thought 'God Slayer' might not be the best name for an American video game, hence we have Crystalis. The artwork below comes from the box and manual, and is courtesy of an awesome fan, Ninja Guy Dan. Alas, my Japanese skills are lacking (non-existant) but if anyone has any translating skills and can describe any of the box artwork, that'd be pretty sweet. Click on the pictures for full size.
