Sources:

It got a physical re-release, so it got some coverage from 4gamer and GameWatch, which I've added to the article. Whenever these old games get a re-release, they get easy to access internet media attention. In addition here are some potential sources:

Game Center CX -

They did a full episode on this. I don't think I've seen GC:CX cited before, but it's a mix of documentary and reality tv. The narrator goes over the game, the history, and gameplay features, and it seems reliable as any review.

Cited by the Japanese Wiki. Note the name is not a translation, rather it actually uses English words for the title transliterated phoenetically into Japanese. This looks to be a 128 book of discussing various SFC games.

Japanese mags

This is a bit of a long shot, but pretty much all the JP mags would have given a preview or review of the game on release. However, the vast majority of these are not accessible. Only Famitsu (as far as I know) lists their old review scores online, and their entry for this game didn't list any. It doesn't mean it wasn't reviewed, only that it isn't there.

Instruction manual

Useful source, but it'd be in Japanese and would need to be translated.

HG101 books

If the site is valid, so should their books. The books tend to not really reveal any new info about development or backstory on the games, but it's a valid source for info like gameplay and story. Harizotoh9 (talk) 04:35, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Found a two page print retrospective, and an online 4gamer retrospective. Which is great. I was actually holding off expanding this page until there was enough sources. I also now own a copy of Nostalgic Super Famicom perfect Guide. Still need some JP magazines, or some import reviews. Harizotoh9 (talk) 22:57, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
