Ever wanted to play the stock market in 8-bit? Kabushiki Doujou is this weird little NES game from Japan where you buy and sell stocks, watch the numbers go up (or, more likely, crash), and try not to panic when everything turns red. It’s got that classic NES charm—simple menus, blocky text, and the kind of tension that makes you yell at your CRT screen.

No English release, so you’ll be squinting at kanji unless you find a translation patch. But honestly, half the fun is figuring out what the heck you’re doing as the market swings wildly. One minute you’re rich, the next you’re selling your virtual shoes to cover losses. It’s oddly addictive once you get past the language barrier.

If you’re into obscure retro sims, this one’s a hidden gem—just don’t expect a tutorial.
