Super Momotarou Dentetsu

The series is very popular in Japan, with 10 million units sold in the series by 1998. To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the series, Hudson collaborated with the financially troubled Chōshi Electric Railway Line, operating a train on the railway decorated with a Momotaro Dentetsu motif. Opening on April 25, 2007, the train ran until its third anniversary. In June 2009, two Momotetsu-themed restaurants opened at Japanese railway stations: one at Haijima Station, and another at Kami-Nagaya Station (上永谷駅).
From 2004, for many years promotional marketing for the series featured the pairing of comedian Tomonori Jinnai and gravure idol/tarento Chinatsu Wakatsuki.
In June 2015, creator Akira Sakuma stated “I’m announcing here that Momotaro Dentetsu is officially done. Ishikawa at Konami squelched everything.” However, in July 2015, Konami lends the license to Nintendo for an unspecified amount of yen.
After 7 years of no release, a new version of the game was released, exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS.
