Satoshi hails from Nagoya in Japan and his site opened a new world to me - that of simulators written for the Japanese market and running on Japanese PC's.

Sims

My first sim was Falcon- a rehosted version for NEC PC-9801 series. After that, I had a craze for Yugeki-oh and AirCombat II that were developed for PC-9801 in Japan.
Soon after, I was enthusiastic for some Japanese version of Microprose products including F-15 Strike Eagle II and F-19 Stealth Fighter

My Favourites

F-19 Stealth Fighter
Falconseries
EF 2000
F-15 by Janes Combat Simulations
F/A-18 by Janes and
