Super Famicom
Sports
Full of Kunio class right from the start as a knock of the ball causes one off the players to take one in the firecrackers. The players are always full of mischief with plenty of expression on their faces in the true Technos style of the series. Anime cut scenes crank up the tension in a school baseball based precursor to the hit Rookies series with solid slugging mechanics.
Nintendo 64
Action
Rare really warmed to the N64 and they got off to a flier with this highly original demolition extravaganza known as Blast Corps in the West. Smashing variety in the vehicles from dumper trucks to robots which must be used to clear a path for the explosives truck to pass.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Mario’s penchant for red and white mushrooms and hiding down pipes continues unabated ageing like a good wine. Just don’t tell princess what he’s been up to.
Gamecube
Simulation
The game that allows players to create their own customised Kaiju monster with the initial appearance based on a few choice questions players get asked. The monsters can gain experience, but the overall aim is to keep the peace on the island and protect it from attacks from Godzilla wannabes. Title translates as Monster Island. Subtitled Amazing Island. Features a GBA link up for an added dimension to play.
Gamecube
Action
Nintendo gets edgy with its Silicon Knight in shining armour producing a psychological thriller complete with sanity meter that causes the player to freak out if exposed to too much tension. Eerie events aplenty as the Kyoto giant veers to the dark side.
PC Engine CD ROM
RPG
Well-loved series on the platform and fine use of the new format, as it was at the time, with animated cut-scenes and plenty of speech to meet the fine band of folk that inhabit its old school, RPG village and locales.
Super Famicom
RPG
There are collectors who strive to collect every game Squaresoft has released and with such packaging it is easy to understand why that is. More than worthy of an English language translation with some emotion stirring moments in, some Chocobo must have had his head in the sand in Squares Overseas Department. There are some who feel the FF series lost its innocence in the shift from sprite based to the 32 Bit era.
PC Engine Super CD ROM
Sports
Enjoy the fierce rivalry of rather over competitive football between Japanese high school teams. Similar to the Neo Geo classic Soccer Brawl in terms of the violent challenges possible.
NEO GEO CD
One on One Beat Em Up
The superlatively detailed backgrounds and imaginative combatant design that characterises any quality SNK release are present, as is the power up bar from the 97 version which allows for super moves when full which is preferred by many to the striker system introduced in the sequels from here on in. Just like the real world of martial arts, its takes dedication and hard work to progress with this old school black belt. Today’s crop of beat em ups would take a pasting off this bruiser.
Sega Saturn
RPG
Quite experimental work coming from Sega, but we can’t expect perfection everytime. Certainly has it’s moments to recommend it to RPG fans. The appearance of Crow man ‘Kuroyasha’ being one of Genki’s favourite.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Search the spooky mansion for the evil spirit. With plenty of ghouls to meet along the way. Gameplay involves drifting around the spooky mansion with its high ceilings trying to discover the grim secret behind the death of the Mansion’s owner. Yet as in most Japanese spooky stories there is a twist in the tale. Also known as Shinsetsu Yume Miyakata.
Game Gear
RPG
Graphically squeezes the Game Gear for all its got and the results are pretty amazing. Its easy to see why many miss the innocence of sprite based RPG worlds looking at this. Imaginative, engrossing, enthralling, engaging: enjoy.
Dreamcast
Sports
Hugging the tight corners of the Monaco course with its lavish apartments right on the roadside really recreates the rev head feel of the Formula One sport. Not that Genki has been a F1 driver yet… Seventeen courses to keep a budding Hamilton busy and eleven teams for Alonso to move between with plenty of modes including classic car, sim mode with tyre changes and refuelling plus a fast paced arcade mode which should keep drivers plenty to savour.
Sega Saturn
One on One Beat Em Up
Features six of the most popular voice actresses in Japan to bolster the blocky early Virtua Fighter polygon graphics. Follow up to the saucy Pretty Fighter X.
PS2
Action
Sega reincarnates the seminal Minotaur man beast platformer which woo-ed the proud owners of the giant sprite action title in the early nineties. And its evolved into a beat to be very proud of with action based 3D gameplay worthy of the nostalgia. Players take the role of a man exposed to genomes that cause mutations. Behind all the bizarre transformations lies a mystery government experiment bringing a Biohazard-like conspiracy theory to the games undercurrent. The mutation element is well utilised with players able to capture new abilities to tear into the poor human adversaries and other beasts. And the over 18 rating is well warranted as liberated limbs and high pressured arteries make for an on screen blood bath. There is plenty to keep the completist busy too with twenty five beats to unlock in Gallery mode.
Dreamcast
A Bit Special
One for the collectors with the networks sadly defunct. Yet it delivered to a gaming public the happy days of chat with fellow Dc users, email, the additional contents of Dricas, the Dreamcast Home Page and of course those epic PSO battles and friendships.
Miscellaneous Games
A Bit Special
Ten top titles to savour as Taito gives another blast of arcade gaming in the form of this third instalment SD card for the Egret mean machine: Mr. Do, Rumba Lumber, Wiz, Metal Soldier Isaac 2, Extermination, Dr. Toppel Tonkentai, Top Landing, Aqua Jack, Galactic Storm and Space Invaders 95 Attack of the Lunar Loonies make up the roster. Re-release of the original print, but missing the Taito Station magazine.
Miscellaneous Games
A Bit Special
Another sublime SD Card for the Egret II Mini Arcade to boost its roster of titles. And what a boost it is with Chuka Taisen, Night Striker, Wardner no Mori, Thundercade and Crime City amongst the ten titles with Ultimate Tiger II looks particularly stunning on the small screen. Please note this is the same release, but without the Taito Station magazine.
Miscellaneous Games
A Bit Special
A very tidy SD Card for the Egret II Mini Arcade that boosts the roster of games by another ten with real, retro appeal. Shmup fans will lap up Daisenpu, Gekirindan and Slap Fight. Purilula is a must for those who appreciate a vintage video game. Backed up by Cleopatra Fortune, Dungeon Magic (looking intriguing in its isometric fight form), Riding Fight (experimental coin op), Grid Seeker, Great Swordsman and Gladiator. Re-release of the original print, but without the Taito Station magazine.
Switch
Shoot Em Up
Brings to mind the beautiful 16 bit era of shoot ’em ups with its pastel shading all the bells and whistles. Detachable boss limbs, arachnoid bosses, scaling in and out adversaries and what looks like extras from the Salamander series – there are many a nod from its knowledgeable developers to what has gone before in the shoot ’em up fraternity.
Famicom Cart
Shoot Em Up
Very tough conversion of the arcade vertically scrolling shooter recommended only to grizzled gaming veterans with hardened skin on their thumbs! Beautiful organic backgrounds and well atoned chip tunes to the on-screen tension which is cranked high during the imaginative boss battles.
