Yep.

They don't push out gimmicky horse crap.  Their games play today just like they would on a PC88.

It's 4, released as Dawn of Ys on the Turbo, Mask of the Sun on the SNES, & Mask of the Sun: A New Theory on PS2.  There was also Genesis & X68000 versions that never got released.  All of them have variations on the story, but with most of the same characters(Arem, AFAIK is only in Dawn of Ys & the X68000 game).
