Yes, we still have a forum.
19 years ago today marked the PC release of Typing Space Harrier, where you could type your way across Moot, Geeza, Amar, and many more familiar stages! Like The Typing of the Dead it relies on the player hitting keyboard keys at specified moments as quickly as possible.
The Limited Run version of the SEGA Astro City Mini will only be limited to 3,500 units, which will probably make this version sought after in the collectors market compared to the regular Japanese version.

Ask : Was the title “Fantasy Zone” something you decided from the start?Ishii: I wanted the title to be “Opa-Opa” too, but due to various circumstances… (laughs) Apparently Yu Suzuki, who was developing Space Harrier at the same time as us, wanted to name his game Fantasy Zone. But when our development chief came and saw our game, he said the title of Fantasy Zone fit what we were doing better. “Opa Opa is just a nonsense title. Fantasy Zone is better, let’s go with that!” And that’s what happened.
Most of the titles we talked about here are available via the English PlayStation Network Store, since that is how most of us buy games. But if you are daring and want to dive into some Japanese PSN goodies, you should totally check out some of the PS2 Japanese only releases especially the long running ‘SEGA Ages 2500’ titles:- Phantasy Star Generation Complete Collection- Bonanza Bros.- Gain Ground- Dragon Force- Space Harrier Complete Collection- SEGA Memorial Selection (Obscure titles!)- Gunstar Heroes Treasure Box (MUST HAVE)- Dynamite Deka- Galaxy Force II – Special Extended Edition- Fantasy Zone Complete Collection (MUST HAVE)

So what makes the Space Harrier guy fly? Is it the weapon he carries or is he just capable of flight like some superhero?
Also, what's his name?
