Famicom Cart
Platform
The mere site of a ninja gets Genki going, but Tecmo’s skill of shrinking down the shuriken spiked world gives a great sense of scale to the levels and the colossal bosses. And in true ninja style it often requires outthinking and outwitting the boss rush to win the day. Known in the West by its subtitle: The Dark Sword of Chaos.
Dreamcast
Action
Sequel to the Saturn title improving on the graphics as the camera twists and turns away for you to face a fresh batch of gun fodder. With a story mode following on from the prequel and an arcade mode for the trigger happy.
Famicom Cart
Action
Stirring chip tunes with that famous film anthem sounding great as Luke negotiates tricky platform sections in a variety of sand and snow based lands, not made easier by dissolving platforms. Taking to the X Wing to take down Tie Fighters (nearly incurred the wrath of the Empire then by getting that mixed up!) Looks impressive in 3D before the vertically scrolling section take on the Death Star tunnels.
Famicom Cart
Action
Master piece in animation moving as slickly as Prince of Persia on your quest to rescue the kidnapped princess. Hardcore old school difficulty ensures you must be able to block your opponents assaults as well as dish out your own flaying fists. The ultimate showdown with Master Karateka will have your palms sweating, but the thought of having to fight all those tough nuts again to get to him will spur you on.
PC Engine Super CD ROM
Shoot Em Up
Superb shooter where players get to customise a mean mecha robot instead of relying on power ups to blast bits out of the opposition. Like Assault Suits Valken on the SFC, fellow fighters will come to the players aid as the plot unfolds through the slickly produced cut sequences. Backgrounds are full of inspiration and very well executed with parallax scrolling to put many programmers to shame. A master blaster.
Famicom Cart
Action
Players outwit their opponent spy using traps and various fun items in the game that introduced 80’s Britain to the fun of improper gameplay along with Skool Daze. A fine concept, beautifully executed.
PC Engine HU Card
Platform
Take control of Monkey with his extendable staff and do battle all manner of evil monsters on your quest to find the holy Buddhist scriptures. Bail out Pigsy and Sandy for womanising countless times too. Genki recommended.
PC Engine HU Card
Shoot Em Up
Rather bizarre titles seem to be Genki’s speciality on the Engine and the phallus shaped Honey does little to redress the balance. Well worth persevering with as the developers really get into the swing in later levels in this lesser known, vertically scrolling shooter.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Straight from the arcades comes this forced scrolling shooter featuring the Journey to the West Legend and starring Monkey, Pigsy, Sandy and Tripitaka. Well Monkey and Pigsy at least as the others have been kidnapped. The pacing is good and the characters nicely realised. And with Monkey in it.
Super Famicom
Platform
Yoshi’s Island was a late Super Famicom release around the debut of the Playstation in Japan, yet its timing seemed to ask what all this 32Bit fuss was about. The crayon-like, colourful gaming world is charming with delightful, forgiving gameplay that relies on ability without any cheap shots from unseen enemies or blind leaps of faith. Yoshi’s flexibility came to the fore with eggs being launched using the intuitive targeting system to reveal secret areas – all very well providing Baby Mario didn’t stray for too long. A superb way to bow out for the SFC; a veritable ace up the sleeve from the former Kyoto playing card maker.
Super Famicom
RPG
Spooky, gothic RPG for old hands Enix in which merely moving through the play area drains your health so you must kill to keep up your soul meter and stay alive. Playable as knight or devil with separate routes adding to the longevity, as does the masses of hidden areas. Oozes atmosphere.
Super Famicom
Simulation
Worthy of purchase for the box artwork alone if it weren’t for the well designed mecha waiting their turn to attack each other inside. A lesson in strategy combat titles thats truly absorbing and well worthy of the Squaresoft label. Praise due to the Cybernator creator Toshio Tsuchida’s work on the mecha design.
Super Famicom
RPG
European style fantasy RPG with sprites and attention to detail befitting of the most enchanting of European pageantry. Enix was the main rival to Square in these heady sixteen bit RPG days and games such as Mystic Ark show the talent of the team in this exquisite expedition.
Super Famicom
RPG
Plenty of nostalgia for those who appreciate their DQ series. And it looks splendidly resplendent in its Super Famicom spruce up with such sparkling graphics you almost expect glare from the stately gems decorating the palaces. A quest it is and not for the faint hearted with plenty to pull on the heart-strings. But well worthy of preserving for the gaming vault of its top triumphs.
Playstation
Shooter
Early PSX 3D shooter which adopts a Blade Runner style cityscape for the G Police to explore in futuristic copters. The cut scenes are plentiful, de rigueur at the time.
GameBoy Advance
Action
A triple A Nintendo game that oozes class from every conveyor belt Mario must traverse or rope he must swing on in order to get the key and free the stolen Mario toy. Being a Kong title the big showdown always hangs over the player. But the level design and multiple solutions show the vast amount of work that have gone into this superbly rendered action puzzler.
PS2
RPG
Fantasy style space adventure (or should that be Phantasy with its similarity to PSO?) The group battles are intense and the plot woven with the extreme skill of a games company with a wealth of experience. Very emotive soundtracl perfectly suited to the on screen action.
PS2
Shooter
Its surprising how intuitive controlling a massive mecha can become and, with a good range of movements to master, players soon can strafe with the finest before unleashing a powerful rocket into an opponents mid rift.
Playstation
Shoot Em Up
Military based verticle scroller with lavish attention to detail. A keen eye will be needed to avoid the barrage of enemy assaults.
Playstation
Shoot Em Up
Vertical, arcade – style blaster complete with all powerful laser to liberally apply to frazzle all on screen. Chain attacks are also possible boosting your score multiplier and adding a new dimension to gameplay. Thankfully slightly easier than its sequel to prevent any permanent retina damage. This is the second print version, hence the change in cover.
Nintendo 64
Action
Genki’s weapon of choice is a craftily dispatched red turtle shell. A poison chalice to follow up the mode 7 marvel that was the Super Famicom original, yet utilises the additional processing power of the 64 well with mud tracks and other vehicles on the circuit.
