Monkey Hero was one of my first game i played in my childhood (and the first Zelda-like I played before playing any Zelda games) but unfortunately isn't available anymore unless you have a still working playstation with the original game. Having it back playable on PC would be a blast and an amazing opportunity for anyone who doesn't know this fantastic game.
