All Games In Stock By Takara
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Be a winner at the game of life with this Saturn version of the popular board game that melds money, love and education in one title. Known in Japan as DX Jinsei Game.
Playstation
Sports
Combines the fun of pull back and go toy cars with the right blend of driving thrills and spills action. The cartoony approach over the realistic version makes it a very enjoyable ride.
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Destroy cities whilst wrestling Godzilla like monsters in this commendable conversion of the Neo Geo classic. Towering skyscrapers can be tossed at opponents and each monster has its own special energy zapping move. Pesky humans interfere but can easily be dispatched with a swipe of the tail.
Playstation
Sports
Fun racing game due to the sprite graphics keeping action fast paced and the car physics a bit more forgiving. Great locales from the Big Truck arena to the Daytona style open circuit.
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Geese Howard squawks up to all and sundry that to beat him you must first conquer his martial arts tournament and smash your way through his cronies. Simple pick up and play mechanics are enjoyable compared with the complexity of some series’ special moves and the additional fighting plane literally adds a new dimension to gameplay. Savour the start of an immense series. Subtitled ‘The Battle of Destiny.’
Famicom Cart
Platform
Robots in disguise must be avoided, but otherwise Optimus Prime romps through the platform levels blasting all and sundry. Nice nostalgia in many of the baddies including a T Rex look alike. Genki was always a big fan of the ones which could transform into cassette tapes, Decepticons or not. Subtitled Convoy no Nazo in Japanese or Mystery of Convoy.
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
Few will forget the spherical glory of Tohshinden when it first captured the potential of the Playstation for real 3D fighters. The eye candy was all it needed to sell, yet the gameplay is distinctly 2.5D. Happy days and memories, especially when the alternative was another go on Kileak the Blood.
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
Lots of love for Toshinden’s style of fight action with its distinctive ellipse like appearance of its pugilists. The series went on to gain strength and its quick paced action helps this third instalment flex its muscles.
Super Famicom
Platform
Modern gaming definitely misses the humour of Shiney’s Earthworm: pure fun and full of creative genius. Nice to remind yourself what you may have been missing.
Nintendo DS
RPG
Famed anime utilises the DS stylus in fine fashion as players must pull off special moves. The platform fight action is pretty relentless and the ninja theming makes for beautiful bamboo backgrounds and some catchy chip tunes in a Japanese style. Full title Naruto Shippuden Ninja Council 4. Known in Japan as Naruto Shippuuden Saikyou Ninja Daikesshuu 5.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Like a Miyazaki anime, ecological disaster stalks this dating sim with a look of Sakura Wars and a feel of Tokimeki Memorial. The games characters are skilled in magical arts, as if the science of romance wasn’t tricky enough.
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Conversion of the massive Neo Geo title from the 2D fighting grandmaster SNK. Some wonderful playable characters to choose from including the superbly named Korean Taekwondo expert KimKap Hwan and generous girth of Chinese gent Cheng Sinzan.
Super Famicom
Sports
A nice discovery in a tennis game that makes players destroy opponents blocks on their side of the court in a Break-Out style. An array of players from our hero dog with mallet for a racket, to dog with bone for a racket and even a girl with a racket. Some strange locales as well that may not get approved by the LTS such as the haunted arena. Full title: Heisei Inu Monogatari Bow Pop N Smash.
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
A nice collectable for Playstation and Toshinden fans as Playstation Magazine promoted the release of Toushinden 2 in Japan.
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Truly jaw dropping in its hey day with the train and waterfall backdrops particularly memorable, this grandmaster can still pull off a few tricks on the Super Famicom like old Jubei Yamada. Full of that distinct SNK style much imitated, but never surpassed and another excellent Takara conversion.
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
The sequel lavishes more textures on Toushinden’s ellipses and features some fabulous backgrounds from the peace and tranquillity of the forest stage to the flashing strobe of the disco dance floor, if saying that doesn’t make Genki sound too old. The detail is balanced correctly with playability and as such the speed of the contest zips along.
Nintendo 64
Sports
Genki can’t fault any racing game that lets you ride as a Ramen truck and the cel shaded sprite look of Choro Q looks like a car chase from the legendary Lupin anime and is appropriate to its toy car roots. Known as Penny Racers in the West, but we aren’t sure if the ramen truck made the cut.
Super Famicom
Action
Impressive Takara conversion that doesn’t have the full clout of the Neo Geo version, but considering the hardware and lack of memory, the results are mightily impressive. Tidy controls as players crash down buildings on each other as well as utilising their monsters special manoeuvres.
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Absolute treat of a game with atmospheric backgrounds from kabuki theatre, snowy Ainu inspired Hokkaido to Mount Fuji. The giant ‘Earthquake’ character is still jaw dropping even today. A very classy conversion from Saurus. Known as Samurai Shodown in the West.
Famicom Cart
Simulation
Basic commands such as talk, take, search and move help our beloved seal Goma and his faithful companion skilfully travel to Nepal with one or two scrapes along the way.
GameBoy Color
RPG
Very sweet graphical style to this little known off shot of the Brave Saga series with the look of the Mother series in its prime. Plenty of scrapes along the way, but the very friendly user interface makes combat enjoyable rather than a chore.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Be a winner in the game of life as players progress round the board dealing with the many dilemmas life may throw up. Initially players decide their appearance, gender and type of car ina nice nod to personalise the game to the players character. Known in Japanese as the DX Jinsei Game.

A very fine tribute to Mario’s epic Wii adventure with an attention to detail far beyond their budget price would suggest. Captures the innocence of the Galaxy adventure with a real twinkle in their eyes.
