Nintendo 64
Platform
Miyamoto san’s masterpiece was well worth the wait creating the dream world where anything seems possible he often refers to in interviews. Genki loves to challenge that penguin to one more bob sled ride down the mountain and to splash around in the gloriously realised sea. Will bring a smile to the face of the most grizzled of gaming veterans.
Nintendo 64
Sports
Special pack to fully appreciate the multiplayer joys of Mario Karts world. 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.
Nintendo 64
Sports
Horse racing and breeding for the 64 with very nice graphics in that distinctive 64 style. Its very compelling to bring up a young foal to eventually win the cup, before being put out to pasture.
PC Engine CD ROM
Shoot Em Up
Very solid 2D shooter in the mould of Last Resort on the Neo-Geo. Has some very tasty cut scenes and a plot involving a brain in a box.
Famicom Cart
Action
Great 8 Bit game which keeps it simple, but heaps lashings of fine gameplay on those prepared to sample its action based levels. Players must get across the screen to collect the key. The secret is in blowing up the towers on the way to allow players to cross rivers, avoiding the projectile fire as you go.
Famicom Cart
Shoot Em Up
Great innovation on the Galaxian or Space Invader theme that sees the players ship progressing forward given a sense of momentum by the 3D style scrolling landscape below. The shooting action has tight collision detection and some great, old school sound effects.
Famicom Cart
Shoot Em Up
Incredibly fast into the screen 3D shooting action which handles some impressively sized bosses. Very impressive results from the hardware and no sign of a struggle. Clever use of colouring and backgrounds to give a varied feel to the relentless action.
PS2
Simulation
Subtitled ‘Boiling blood’ (atsuki chishioni), a hybrid version of the original given a complete graphical overhaul and new speech to introduce the Sega series to the platform. Crazed mix of steam powered mech strategy battles and delicate as a cherry blossom romance.
PC Engine HU Card
Shoot Em Up
As the first in the series on the Engine, this hasn’t aged quite as well as Final Soldier and Soldier Blade, but its nippy gameplay has withstood the test of time. Eight intense levels as you fly over a giant spaceship not knowing where the next attack will be launched from. One hit takes out your upgradable weapon, the next – destruction. Has two and five minute score challenge modes for those who wished to brush up their skills for the gaming equivalent of Woodstock – the Caravan contest. Updated to the PSP, but that brain boss keeps haunting us.
PC Engine CD ROM
RPG
The plot weaves further on bringing together some intriguing strands. Yet the all important golden gameplay thread has been drastically altered for this release making it a side scrolling platformer. Doesn’t quite live up to Y’s I & II yet wth such high expectations it was always going to be tricky. Thankfully the spine tingling score of the original strides boldly on undeterred.
Mega Drive
Platform
Forced scrolling platform action demands quick thinking at all times. Very cute, colourful and cartoony sprites and backgrounds add to the charm of this platform romp and the shooting sections provide a fun distraction.
Mega Drive
Shooter
Launch title Thunder Blade brought the arcade home even down to the reverse cockpit controls in this accurate conversion that even had the thrill of take off announcing the new dawn of the 16Bit era. There were extras too for the Mega Drive with the addition of mid level bosses to beef up the challenge, switching from the 3D perspective to an overhead when the boss battle ensued.
Game Gear
Sports
Very solid slugger for fans with enough to recommend it to those not so into the World Series. Newspaper back pages are often dedicated to the man Nomo (despite him plying his trade in America), so it’s only natural that we have a realistic Sega Sports title, packed full of Major League players and stats in his honour.
Game Gear
Sports
Football blast from the J League’s hey day playing a nice, arcadey kick about. A real laugh in two player mode using the link cable, but arguments may ensue over who gets to be Gary’s Grampus.
Gamecube
Action
Before Rares defection came a journey into the Star Fox world where players get to explore the universe and enjoy a could bit of paw to hand combat with our old buddy Fox McCloud. Develops the story and series well complete with all of Fox’s friends.
Gamecube
Puzzle
For the uninitiated Mr Driller must suffer the threat of repetitive stress injury and frantically drill from the surface to the goal. Drilled blocks of the same colour collapse presenting a hazard so careful thought is the order of the day. But at the same time limit is set by depleting oxygen reserves. The lovely sprites mask a truly hardcore experience when freebased from its graphical candy, but when its so easy to get into and so sweetly coated it’s a true pleasure to drill deeper. Features a world tour with themed levels from around the globe (and a fine Indiana Jones tribute) and a frantic multiplayer mode where up to players race to the goal. Plenty of extras too and smooth presentation.
Gamecube
Action
Sega uses its cute monkey to promote a devious version of Dizzy with pixel-perfect stops and a fine sense of momentum needed to complete the levels. Fun and never the play engine’s fault.
GameBoy Original
Shooter
Little known shoot em up in which players stand off against alien vessels and fire against each other in a futuristic, intergalactic duel. Travelling across the middle of the screen though is an asteroid belt that can absorb shots, or even deflect them back at your own vessel. Old school and proud of it.
GameBoy Original
Action
Hardware appropriate graphical achievements and gameplay to match as the players penguin pecks platforms to negotiate a safe passage for the egg through the screens laden with traps and adversaries. A real gem in Sega’s crown that shows why it enjoyed the fine times ahead.
Famicom Cart
Shoot Em Up
Vertical shooting action as players ships zip along up the screen with the secret to fast progress being to nip enemy ships in the bud nice and early before the screen can get too full of bullets and bombs. As an extra strand, players must collect spare parts in order to clear the stage. The chip tunes effects and old school gameplay are the likes of which Genki pines for in the face of bullet hell, bullet storms and bullet waves of the modern STG. Keeping it simple is no criticism.
GameBoy Color
Simulation
Subtitled ‘Flower Corp. New Recruits.’ Crazed mix of steam powered mech strategy battles and delicate as a cherry blossom romance translated well onto the GameBoy Colour.
