Makyōden

Giant crabs, car crashes, and soda machines — Makyōden for the PC-98 has it all! [Source]

Dan on Twitter pointed out there’s also a Back to the Future 4 poster in the first screenshot. This game gets more interesting by the minute.

C’est La Vie

March 26, 2019 decafjedi C'est La Vie

There’s a dialog box obscuring our view of this cola machine from C’est La Vie for the PC-98, but as they say, that’s life. [Source]

Sei Shōjo Sentai Lakers III

March 26, 2019 decafjedi Sei Shōjo Sentai Lakers III

There’s a soda machine peeking into the corner of this screenshot from Sei Shōjo Sentai Lakers III, which I can only assume is a PC-98 port of Bulls vs. Lakers and the NBA Playoffs for the Sega Genesis. [Source]

Kyōhaku

Head downtown and grab an ice-cold soda from this ersatz Coca-Cola machine in Kyōhaku for the PC-98! [Source]

Kakyūsei

March 26, 2019 decafjedi Kakyūsei

It’s rare to see a high school library with a soda machine. I’m glad to see Kakyūsei, a dating sim for the PC-98, attempting to rectify that.

ShtyrliTz: Otkrytie Ameriki

March 25, 2019 decafjedi ShtyrliTz: Otkrytie Ameriki

ShtyrliTz: Otkrytie Ameriki is a Russian adventure game starring a Soviet spy who’s tracking down a woman named “Lara Sonnor” on behalf of the American government. From there, it quickly devolves into a Terminator parody, but at least it’s a Terminator parody with a soda machine! [Source]

Clannad: Hikari Mimamoru Sakamichi de – Gekan

March 25, 2019 decafjedi Clannad

It’s a dreary day in Clannad: Hikari Mimamoru Sakamichi de – Gekan for the PlayStation Portable. Maybe I should wait out the rain under the awnings with the soda machines.

Yakusoku – Promise

March 24, 2019 decafjedi Yakusoku - Promise

Yakusoku – Promise is your typical boy-get-amnesia, boy-meets-succubus, boy-encounters-soda-machines, boy-chooses-between-limited-dialogue-options love story for the PC-98. [Source]

Coin

March 24, 2019 decafjedi Coin

It would have been such a waste to title a visual novel Coin and not include at least a few soda machines. [Source]

Kusuriyubi no Kyōkasho

March 24, 2019 decafjedi Kusuriyubi no Kyōkasho

This soda machine is from Kusuriyubi no Kyōkasho, a visual novel for the PC-98. Google translates that title as “Medicine Finger Textbook,” so we’ll just roll with that. [Source]
