It appears Sega has begun preparing for the release of the next Japanese Sega Ages game \u2013 Wonder Boy In Monster Land<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 by opening its official webpage and listing it as “coming soon” to the local eShop for 925 Yen.<\/p>\n

In addition to this, there’s also new information about what this particular version of the game will offer (thanks, Gematsu<\/a>). For starters, the arcade game’s “Joystick Rattle” trick can now be performed with a single button:<\/p>\n

The \u201cJoystick Rattle,\u201d an old arcade trick in which the player vehemently rattles the joystick to increase the amount of gold obtained at certain points on the map, can be executed with a single button in the Sega Ages<\/em> version.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The new “Money Hungry Mode” locks-off the above-mentioned feature and forces the player to play the game how the designers originally intended. There’ll also be the same online leaderboards that were included in previous ports of Wonder Boy In Monster Land. Here are some examples of what you can expect:<\/p>\n

\n

Sphinx Challenge \u2013 Challenge the battle against the Sphinx, which players normally tend to skip.
Monster Castle Challenge \u2013 A time attack on the game\u2019s final dungeon.
Fireball Challenge \u2013 A challenge in which you can only use fireballs (infinitely) and die in one hit.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

And last of all, we have a round-up of in-game screenshots:<\/p>\n
