Crystal Warriors pops up on AU Classification database

20130307_crystal_warriors

Classic Game Gear turn-based strategy effort Crystal Warriors has been awarded a G rating by the Australian Classification Board. The database entry unfortunately lists the title as multiplatform, so it’s not clear where the 1991 portable title is headed, although Nintendo’s Virtual Console services seem a good fit. Sega classics have also released on Steam and console networks.

Thanks, GoNintendo.
