City Connection confirmed the eighth entry in its Jalecolle Famicom Edition line on July 30. Rod Land is a Famicom port of Jaleco's 1990 arcade game, a fixed-screen action title where players control Lit and Tam, catching enemies with a staff and slamming them down. Collecting all flowers on a stage transforms enemies, and defeating them yields EXTRA items for high scores or 1UPs.
The release includes the overseas version ROD LAND and lets players customize gameplay through options. It will support the series' common features: Rewind for immediate retries and Quick Save & Load for saving anywhere. Pre-orders are live on the Nintendo Store at 990 yen, with a 10% discount through August 19. City Connection also posted an image on its X account that may hint at one of three future titles, and fans are guessing in the replies.
