Flashback tells the story of young scientist Conrad B. Hart who wakes up on the colonised moon of Titan with absolutely no memories of what has happened to him.  All he knows is he has to find a way back to Earth and avoid his enemies and kidnappers who are hot on his heels.

Featuring:

  • Post-FX graphic filters.
  • A completely remastered sound and music.
  • A brand new “Rewind” function which is variable according to difficulty level.
  • Tutorials for those who need a hand.

Not only will the game be available digitally on the Nintendo eShop, there will also be a 25th Anniversary Collector’s Edition available in retail shops in Europe and Australia.  This edition of the game will include a physical copy of the game, a retro cartridge style metal case, an exclusive numbered metal card, a 24-page retro style instruction booklet and the digital soundtrack (remastered version).
