Lunar: The Silver Star/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Breakthrough Hit: Lunar: The Silver Star was Working Designs' first big success as a publisher.
  • Follow the Leader: The prevalence of flutes and ocarinas in Zelda series may have had some influence on the decision to change Alex's instrument of choice from a harp (in The Silver Star) to an ocarina (in the remakes). Which makes it kind of ironic that Link acquired a magical harp in Oracle of Ages.
  • Hey, It's That Voice!: In the PSP remake, Silver Star Harmony, the cast is like one big Tales (series) reunion.
  • Killer App: The Silver Star remained one of the best selling games for the Sega CD addon, both in Japan and the US.
  • No Export for You: The PC port of Silver Star Story, which does have higher resolution than the PlayStation and Sega Saturn versions and better video playback for the FMV cutscenes, but the port was only released in Japan and South Korea. An English version of the port was planned, but it was too buggy and unstable to be made.
