Japanese technology catapulted the entire country into an economic
boom in the 1980s, and its PC scene was right at the center of it. As
the PC exploded in popularity, there was an enthusiast magazine for
pretty much any niche one could imagine.
Computer magazines often came with type-in programs in the
relatively easy to understand BASIC language, or the more difficult
hexadecimal machine code language, which made it popular with
hobbyist programmers who could learn programming from typing
in the programs.

I/O is a long-established personal computer
magazine created by Kazuhiko Nishi, Akio
Gunji, Keiichiro Tsukamoto, and Masaaki
Hoshi—the editor of Transistor Gijutsu.
In 1976, NEC released the TK-80, a single- I/O
board computer kit, and it became popular Issue 63
January 1, 1982
among hobbyists in Japan. Kazuhiko Ni-
shi joined foundation of the first Japanese
microcomputer magazine I/O as an editor
when he was a student at the Waseda Uni-
versity.
The I/O initially served information for
assembled microcomputer systems with
a few video game columns. Growing the
video game market, it was shifted to a vid-
eo game magazine, which made Kazuhiko
Nishi leave and start the more technology I/O
oriented ASCII magazine. Issue 64
February 1, 1982
The magazine was known for it’s thick-
ness—the cause was largely due to the large All Cast Star Trek
number of advertisements, accounting for
about two-thirds of the total page numbers.
The inclusion of several program codes
were also a major factor to it’s many pages.
Among the programs were also games that
were later released commercially (mostly
by Compac).
The present version of the magazine has I/O
changed significantly, and almost nothing

The LOGiN computer game magazine

the ASCII magazine in 1982.
The magazine included game reviews,
articles on game companies and game
designers, information on overseas
software and arcade games, which
made the reading response unrivalled

compared to other magazines.
Issue 2
An unique aspect of this magazine October 1, 1982
was the Program Olympics in which
several major software companies at
the time provided games and programs
that were published in the magazine.
Since the July 1988 issue, the maga-
zine was published twice a month, but
with a drop in quality for many read-
ers. It was suspended in 2008, 26 years
after its first publication.
Famicom Tsūshin was a column in the Login
early issues on Login, and focused on Issue 3
the Famicom platform. It ran from the January 1, 1983
March 1985 to December 1986 issue.
It received a good reception, so the
publisher decided to found a maga-
zine specialized for it, which became
Famitsu.

Technopolis Soft was the software

label of publishing house Tokuma’s
computer gaming magazine Tech-
nopolis (known as “Tekupori” for
short).
After the Famicom became a big
hit, the average Japanese game
player quickly transitioned to con-
soles, leaving computers with Technopolis
more “adult” genres. Technopolis Issue 3
followed suite, and became more October 25, 1982?
and more adult-oriented, to the
point where they actually trade-
marked the term “bishōjo games”.
Their software department fol-
lowed a similar path.

ブラスティ－

Cruise Chaser Blassty is a sci-fi role-playing game

developed by Square for various Japanese comput-
ers. A version was planned for the FM77AV series,
but was cancelled some time in the development.
The cancellation may have had something to do with
the difficulty to porting the game to the FM computer.

Cruise Chaser Blassty was the fifth game that Square

had published, and the third that they had developed
themselves. It featured mecha originally designed
by Mika Akitaka and musical contributions by Nobuo
Uematsu (best known for his contributions to the Fi-
PC-88 box art nal Fantasy series), being the very first video game
he wrote music for.

game’s story was adapted to a manga and serial-
ized, then released as a pair of standalone books.
The manga received a sequel, though the game it-
self did not.

The game was considered unique for its party-based

action combat, magic combination system, and open-

leased for Sorcerian by different developers, each ex-
panding the original quest selection.

Despite being a Japanese game, Sorcerian resembles

Western RPGs of its time, focusing more on character
development than story.

In 2008, Platinum Games designer Hideki Kamiya list-

ed Sorcerian as one of his favourite games of all time
and an influence on his work.
