Dragon Knight and Dragon Knight 2

Dragon Knight 1 and Dragon Knight 2 were the first two Dragon Knight games (obviously). They were for MSX (a type of computer) in Japan. Unfortunately they were never released in the U.S. You can get the games for the MSX emulator at
The LuzNET 2 BBS MSX Archive
Dragon Knight 1 and 2 are different from the Dragon Knights that come after it. One is because they are in first person, and when you are in town, you select where in town to go by selecting it at the bottom of the screen. Kind of like in games like Dokyuusei.

Notice- Problem Solved! I have made a new emulator zip, using a newer version of WinZIP. This version allows me to make sub-folders, so you can just unzip, and play. It should also fix any other problems that some of you have been having with the emulator. Click here to get it!
Storylines

Dragon Knight- Takeru comes across Strawberry fields and learns that the Gems of Adriana have been stolen by the Dragon Knights. Also, some girls have been captured and are being held in the Dragon Knights tower. Takeru must defeat the Dragon Knights, rescue the girls, and get the Gems of Adriana back.
Dragon Knight 2- Takeru goes to the town of Phoenix. While resting at an Inn, all the girls in town are captured and turned into monsters by a Sorceress named Mesaanya, who is keeping them locked up in a "maze like" tower. He later gets two companions (Baan and Sofia). Together, they must save the girls (and turn them back to normal), and kill Mesaanya.

Notice- I cant speak Japanese that well, so dont expect to these to be exact matches of the story. Thay are only what I could get from playing these games and knowing a small bit of Japanese. If you have any more information about the stories of either of these games, please mail me.

Characters
In both games, Takeru (Desmond) is the main character. In Dragon Knight, Takeru first meets Luna. In Dragon Knight two, he meets Baan (Rolf) while on the way to Phoenix. He later on meets a girl named Sofia. They both join the group. I am not that good at reading Japanese but I have some knowledge of it, when I get more names, I will be sure to post them. But that's all for now.
