"Super Momotarou Dentetsu III" is a classic board game-style video game that was developed by Hudson Soft. This title, however, was specifically formatted for the Sega Game Gear, offering a portable version of the popular Japanese franchise. In "Super Momotarou Dentetsu III", players engage in a virtual board game experience, where the objective is to become the wealthiest player through strategic investments in properties, railways, and other transportation options across a stylized map of Japan. Players roll dice to move around the board, with various squares triggering financial events, property purchases, and random occurrences that can drastically affect the player's wealth and standing in the game.
Significantly, this game belongs to a long-running series known as "Momotarou Dentetsu", which translates to "Momotaro's Electric Railway", with Momotaro being a popular hero from Japanese folklore. Although "Super Momotarou Dentetsu III" was primarily released for Japanese audiences and not officially localized in English, it enjoys a dedicated fan base due to its engaging gameplay and the strategic depth it offers. For those with knowledge of the series or the Japanese language, it represents a compelling and unique challenge on the Sega Game Gear, showcasing the device's ability to host complex and expansive game environments despite its limited hardware capabilities relative to home consoles. This game is a testament to Hudson Soft's ability to craft engaging, enduring game experiences that cater to strategic and economic planning skills, making it a beloved entry in the retro gaming community.
