PS2
Rhythm
Refreshingly original title playing most like a rhythm action titles except this time players take the role of an orchestral conductor to try and save the concert hall from closing down. As in a rhythm action title such as Samba De Amigo, the backgrounds shift according to player performance so the conductor soon knows if they are hitting the right notes. Rather than simple button presses though, the degree of pressure applied is the important factor in keeping the orchestra together. Bravo indeed. Known as Mad Maestro in the West.
Nintendo DS
Rhythm
Based on the hit manga series that was made into a popular live action drama starring the young conductor and the affections of Megumi Noda or the Nodame of the title. The bulk of the game involves conducting the orchestra and the stylus is utilised to near perfection for controlling the innovative rhythm action. The quirkiness of the manga shines through in the madcap mini games – such as running across the moon avoiding falling comets or the funky Taiko no Tastujin tribute taking advantage of the Bandai Namco connection.
Super Famicom
Simulation
Board game take on the Zenki world that is little known with four player mode and dynamic anime cut scenes. Full of fun and a great off shoot for fans of the series.
PC Engine CD ROM
A Bit Special
CD format magazine for PC Engine users to cast an eye over upcoming releases as well as enjoy a bit of light entertainment. This issue has plenty of demos, animation and information to sample.
Dreamcast
Sports
Comes with a pack in Bible that explains the rules making for a large pack. The game is a fine product of Sega Sports with plenty of cheer and razzmatazz along with the fluid mechanics and slick presentation you would expect. Good for gamers with no prior knowledge required.
PC Engine Super CD ROM
Simulation
Pachio kun is a little ball with legs, a Pachinko ball to be precise, who here travels into outer space for the theme to this Pachinko controller compatible table game. Pachinko involves a pile of steel balls falling from the top of screen and players trying to manipulate them to fall out to the players collection. Here without the deafening sound.
Super Famicom
Sports
Overhead perspective race title that simulates the real sport in the need for lightening fast reflexes and ideally a good memory of the the corners. Increases the tactical element by requiring pit stops and the overall presentation is as good as any race girl.
PS2
Platform
Absolutely lush backgrounds feel like they are bringing a fairytale to life in this spiritual sequel to the much vaunted Princess Crown on the Saturn. Items and experience are important as magical spells are released with a fair heap of graphical gunpowder. But at its core its good old fashioned 2D platform fighting and this cat is lapping it up. Absolutely huge quest with some nightmare inspired bosses.
PC Engine CD ROM
Quiz
A great way to boost Japanese knowledge along with a bit of sport related info too with this quiz game froma Fuji TV show featuring questions on sumo, football transfers, modern literature, films, even ramen noodles if we are not mistaken!
Wii
RPG
Poor, rotund Opoona has been split up from his folks and the aim of this unusual quest is to get back the happy family. Various skills are obtained through hard work such as a detective or pop star and the varied nature of the quests ensures gameplay is always fresh. Add to the mix the graphical skills of Dragon Quest developers and a twist of the aural pleasure from the Final Fantasy series and the results are a fine release from the Koei stable.
PSP
RPG
Fantasy style action RPG with gorgeous graphics to die for – fluidly animated and all in colourful, painstakingly detailed 2D. Highly original battle system where by you fight your opponents real time as opposed to turn based number crunching. And the attack effects look dazzling on the PSP screen, although unfortunately the code hasn’t been optimised to fit the screen snugly. Unlockable characters add to the longevity. Updated from the rare and coverted Saturn release.
PS2
Sports
Every update seems to get closer to the game with it now seemingly easier to score from corners as in the real game and with an updated working of the offside law – shame that cant be applied to the linemen in the real game. Includes the latest data from the J League along with updated South American and European teams.
PS2
Action
A very tasty Gundam experience with over fifty maddened machines ripping hunks of steel out of each other. The two player mode is very nice and reminiscent of Virtua On in parts. Plus the all action single player mode has great gameplay backed up by the slick production values of possibly the finest anime series in the world?
Nintendo DS
Shoot Em Up
Old school shooter but done in the third dimension producing quite stunning results with crisp, colourful pixels on the small screen. Utilises the dual screen and touch function well with a useful radar, but its wireless two player with only one cart that really whisks up a hail of bullets frenzy. Quite rare of late.
Super Famicom
Sports
Thoroughbred racing sim that has very well drawn horses as breeders put the foals through their paces to see if they make the trophy races or get put out to pasture.
Super Famicom
Sports
Overhead Formula One racer that uses the Namcot flair for cartoony graphics to add plenty of colour and the all important emotion to the package. The attention to detail makes this feel far much more fun than the sum of the parts may suggest.
Gamecube
Action
A chance to sample the delights of this theme park and its BackDraft, ET, WaterWorld, Jaws and Back to the Future rides through mini games. Theres also a small amount of trivia regarding Universal films. Throwing barrels at Jaws or getting ET home on time, what more could you ask for?
Sega Saturn
Sports
Virtua Fighter style polygon pugilists go head to head and toe to toe in this early Saturn release. Seemingly inspired by the Rocky series if the bad boy Victor is anything to go by. The build your own boxer mode adds that important degree of personal involvement to keep wanabee Rockys motivated as they slug their way through the later rounds.
Playstation
Simulation
Dating simulation set in a Japanese high school where you must charm your way into the heart of Nozomi, Midori or even Saeko sensei!
Sega Saturn
Puzzle
Light hearted puzzle and quiz title which excels in multiplayer especially with a multitap. Varied action keeps things fresh and ticking along very nicely.
PSP
Action
Macross is a mighty universe and this is a very weighty tribute to the series. The mechs transform between robot and ship to add two planes to the action. The dark of space is illuminated by powerful laser blasts as Star wars style space battles clash with on the ground skirmishes in a Neo Tokyo style environment. The voice acting keeps the tension cramped up as the high expectation of the series ensures top notch production values.
