MiSTer FPGA - The Legend of Valkyrie [1cc] (ワルキューレの伝説) / PlayStation
16**1440p/60!** This is the English version of the arcade original for Valkyrie, released in 1997 only on PS1 in the great Namco Museum Vol.5 collection. 1cc with stock PCB dip settings & my highest score yet. Game played in TATE orientation on a CRT with HDMI video manually rotated via ffmpeg. Awesome to finally take some time to learn this one, after having played through the PC Engine port multiple times & the Famicom original with their great fan translations.

Overall the emulation in this PS1 port is very good. The biggest issues seem to be with some sound effects having incorrect levels/reverb, though the excellent music is reproduced nicely overall here. There are also scaling issues that will give slight graphical anomalies , no matter if you play in the stock screen orientation or use the "arcade" mode like I did in this video. They are much less apparent in TATE mode but still noticeable. Overall this is just so great to have a fully English version of, since the original cabinet never released outside of Japan. It would be nice if someone hacked this version to strip away the 3D museum frontend and make a more streamlined direct-boot of the game with a smaller image size, but besides a bit of delay getting into the game it's in pretty good shape here already! Great job to the Namco team who archived all of these classics on PS1 via the Namco Museum and Anthology series. It's a highly-recommended series for retro fans, featuring some exclusive remakes of Namco classics also!
