Super Famicom
RPG
Square unleashed in a fun filled Japanese cultural style RPG from the golden age of the Super Famicom RPG’s. Plenty of wacky characters of ‘Goemon’ proportions and self references to other Square franchises as the lighter side to Final Fantasy’s creators comes to the fore.
Super Famicom
Platform
A take on the mighty Contra licence this time with mech style power suits and massive adversaries to test the mode 7 to the limits. Tough like Konami’s opus with one hit kills, yet some supreme weaponry soon gets players in the necessary gung-ho spirits. A few tactically placed vehicles also helps – its always a joy to tear through enemy lines in motorised marauding machine. As does the two player mode with a bit of teamwork.
Super Famicom
Side Scrolling Beat Em Up
Thankfully Capcom’s arcade power house reinstates the simultaneous two player option. Only Mayor and former wrestler Haggar of the playable characters from the original survives the chop: swordsman Carlos and Maki are drafted in to add a bit of ying to the series’ yang. The urban bronx feel of the original has also been shifted to a more global perspective, but thankfully gameplay remains just as sweet as ever on the trail of those Mad Gear punks.
Super Famicom
Platform
Played with classic Japanese game humour as you charge around with your oversized head armed with an upgradable mallet – so what explained by your carpenter occupation. Also features a level where you drive through the town on a moped which is a real scream. Also known as Hammerin Harry.
Super Famicom
Platform
Does justice to the weighty Doraemon license as the platform sections feature solid, colourful sprites and plenty of ducking and jumping attributes to further endear fans of the robot cat from the future. A few magic switches making platforms appear and more mystery surprises make for a top platforming package.
Super Famicom
Platform
Everyone’s favourite cat from the future flies through the platform levels using the bamboo helicopter and a little help from the human friend and boy next door Nobita on the roller coaster level which stands alongside standard platform levels and of course the underwater ones. Simple, primary colours and relatively simple gameplay make for a pleasant, if not too cerebral platforming romp.
Super Famicom
Platform
Not a rare game, yet being regarded as a National Treasure in Japan ensures it holds its value up high. So beloved coming with the four Famicom outings of our plump plumber. (The forth outing was known as Super Mario Brothers USA in Japan.) The presentation is impeccable and the bonus Battle Game from Mario 3 is the icing on a substantial, yet very more-ish cake.
Super Famicom
Platform
Players get to choose from plenty of the hit anime’s colourful characters to savour the clever parallax scrolling on the wooded levels and cheerful chip tunes. And each character has plenty of mannerisms to further endear them to the player, such as a fear of falling when on a particularly tight, moving ledge.
Playstation
Rhythm
Genre defining release from Sony with eye catching graphical style and high degree of variety between levels. Master Onion has to be one of the coolest characters in the gaming world. “Kick, punch: its all in the mind. If you want to test me, I’m sure you’ll find…” It may just be Simple Simon, but when its this much fun…
Playstation
RPG
16bit style exploration of the gaming world spliced with Guardian Heroes style 3D sprites for the turn based combat with dramatic spell effects and swooping camera angles.
Famicom Cart
Action
Sweet take on a race game as players swap the cockpit for a penguin and glide across the ice to their destination part of the course. Cheeky sea lions pop up though and players must avoid them, the holes in the ice and even the fish they frivolously toss in your direction. Not all is to be avoided though and a discerning eye is a must to determine if it’s a hole in the ice or a welcome flag to give bonus points or even a brief respite through a period of flight.
Nintendo 64
Sports
Cute and cuddly Nintendo themed tennis title with a devious undercurrent of tough, uncompromising AI that’ll only allow those with a full array of shots and the intelligence to use them to reach the pinnacle of the sport. A smash in four player – especially the Bowser stage that comes complete with Mario Kart power ups that’d surely bring a smile to even the most conservative Wimbledon spectator.
Dreamcast
Board Game
Toilet obsessed title which looks like Goemon meeting a Mexican wrestler as participants in the board game use a slot machine wheel to determine their progress rather than a dice. Plenty of references to dropping the kids off at the school ensue in an intriguing insight into Japanese humour.
Dreamcast
Sports
Sega Rally really captured the reason why fans spend their Sunday mornings avoiding careering vehicles in off-the-beaten-track forests: power sliding round hairpin bends with wheels spinning to kick out on the home straight. Sublime.
Gamecube
Platform
A compilation package of monstrous proportions containing parts one, two and three of Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic and Knuckles plus Sonic Pinball. This compendium on the life of the spikey one also contains versions of Sonic 3D Blast and Dr. Eggman’s Mean Bean Machine specially tailored for the Japanese release. Despite their age this package offers hours of high velocity gameplay and is a great way to savour a trip down memory lane Sega style. To be this good indeed takes ages.
Gamecube
A Bit Special
Savvy, genre defying developer of Moon on the Playstation and Lack of Love on the Dreamcast turns his hand to little robots whose aim is simple: to please their owners. The wee robot will clean the house all just to see a smiling face of the owner and for a charge using the plug in their back. Various items allow the robot to further explore the giant house such as the copter to fly and the spoon to dig whilst remembering to bag a bit of moolah. As ever quite difficult to place in a succinct genre as it is to put down.
Gamecube
Sports
One of the best branches in Nintendo’s laurel rests on the GameCube and adds co-operative two player gameplay with one to drive and one to take care of the items, cranking up the entertainment. The classic ingredients are all still present with battle mode one of them, but the weapons can now be stolen adding to the dream finishes of knocking out an opponent to whiz past them at the finish line. The added tactical dimension is how long to hold on to weapons when they can be pinched away.
GameBoy Advance
RPG
Nintendo demonstrates its lighter side in this Japanese tongue in cheek take off of the RPG obsession amongst gamers. Set in America with unique, cartoon-like graphics reminiscent of Charlie Brown and his chums. Known as Earthbound in the West.
Sega Saturn
Puzzle
Like all the best puzzlers – easy to pick up, but refuses to let go. Puyo Puyo is at the pinnacle of its genre: sublime, fluid gameplay backed up with zany characters including a samurai mole and a grape aubergine…?
Neo Geo AES
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 like old Jubei Yamada. Full of that distinct SNK style much imitated, but never surpassed.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Running a convenience store is certainly hard work. Especially if your Japanese reading skills aren’t up to it like most of the Genki team! Don’t forget to change the bento boxes when the best before time has run out. Curiosity value.
