Legacy of the Wizard for NES (Interesting game & History behind it)

MegaDrive20XX

Segatron Genesis... call me the wizard.
Legacy of the Wizard for NES. An action/adventure RPG. Where you choose the role of either a man, a lady, a granny, or a kid. Each person has interesting wizard like abilities. However, what draws my attention, is the background music.

Now the gentlemen behind this particular game's music. Is Yuzo Koshiro, he worked for Falcom, a company who made "Y's I & II" on Japanese PC's and PC Engine (NEC Turbo Grafx 16). He worked on the music to this as well.

However, this guy became famous for Sega games actually.

He composed the music for the following titles on the Sega Genesis during the 1990's

Revenge of Shinobi
Shinobi (GameGear)
Shinobi 2 (GameGear)
Streets of Rage
Streets of Rage 2
Streets of Rage 3

and the soundtrack for this famous RPG series...ACTRAISER 1 and 2 on SNES.

He even worked on CastleVania Portrait of Ruin on DS.

What's he working on as we speak? Smash Bros Brawl to be exact, he's one of the lead composers for the game's soundtrack.

Seriously, if you find this NES game, "LEGACY of the Wizard"....take note, that this game was the start of one of gaming's finest music composers of our time.
