Santa Claus no Takarabako
Description
This Famicom Disk System program is mainly used to create a custom digital Christmas card running in a loop, but also has some minigames. On side B of the Disk Card, you have a choice of customizing the card message (oddly offering no hiragana input, only katakana, Latin alphabets, Arabic numerals and some basic punctuations), the background and music and the animation loop that runs on top of the message scroll consisting of 2 frames of a 16x24 sprite (defaulting to a walking animation of Santa). Taking advantage of running on a floppy disk, your custom message including your custom 16x24 sprites can be saved to the Disk Card.
On side A of the Disk Card, you can play 4 minigames:
- Bingo Game: Not a full fledged bingo game. This is simply a number roller for a 10x8 bingo card.
- Roulette Game: Not a full fledged roulette game. This is simply a 24-pocket roulette spinner.
- Slot Machine: More of a game than the other 3. You start with 100 points, one slot machine pull costs 10 points. Pressing Start resets the slot machine state and points back to 100.
- Poker Dice: Not a full fledged poker dice game. This is simply a dice roller for a standard 5-dice hand.
