Key is celebrating <\/span>April Fool\u2019s Day<\/span><\/a> by giving visual novel enthusiasts a 16-bit version of its first and popular title <\/span>Kanon<\/span><\/i> \u2014 25 years after its initial release. The game first debuted in Japan as an adult game on June 4, 1999 before receiving an all-ages standard version in 2005. The most recent version was ported on the Nintendo Switch in 2023.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Although a real 16-bit version of the <\/span>Kanon<\/span><\/i> visual novel is not actually going on sale, Key still dedicated themselves to the gag by releasing a 16-bit main opening sequence for the game. Fans can see how it compares to one of the original opening sequence.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
