Rewind Arcade | The History of Pirate Ship Higemaru: Exploring a New Genre | CAPCHROMOLOGICAL | Rewind Arcade @RewindArcade | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Chapter three of the CAPCHROMOLOGICAL video series where we look at every single Capcom game in chronological order. This video sets sail to scour the depths to uncover the history of Capcom's third arcade release, Pirate Ship Higemaru.

Fun fact: Momotaru's name is a pun and a portmanteau of the Japanese folklore hero, Momotarou, and "taru" (たる) which means barrel in Japanese. (Thanks KSG-7!)
