PC Engine CD ROM
Simulation
Arcade mahjong game converted to the home system with mild RPG exploration elements and more bunny ears than the Playboy mansion.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Genki Gurus will know it only takes a few Japanese ghosts, a wise sage and a few ninjas and Genki is sold on the concept. Where Ja Ja excels is utilising a smaller player character to allow so much going on on screen. A superb conversion and a tip top example of the genre. Oh, did we mention riding on giant frogs?
PC Engine CD ROM
Simulation
London’s most iconic detective sets the scene beautifully with the CD taking advantage of plenty of audio information. Plenty of trips around the town and back to Baker Street before going in front of the judge. Also features video scenes depending on game choices.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Blobby accompanies your quest to free the bonnie princess and his abilities to transform into a key or a trampoline cannot be undervalued in a platform game. Some clever conundrums and tight fixes to negotiate. Also known as Fushigina Blobby.
PC Engine CD ROM
RPG
From the department elevator music via the sound effects that remind of a train arriving in a Japanese station to the voice acting in the action scenes, this RPG exudes retro charm. The combat is action based and the game has a comforting feel to its master plan. Subtitled The Emblem from Darkness.
PS2
RPG
An update of Kingdom Hearts II with extra battles, maps and events re-released in Japan for the English voice actors it features along with Japanese subtitles. Comes as a two disk set with the second disk featuring a remake of the GBA title Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories with again a few unexpected extras over the original in the cut scenes and voice acting. A smashing series that shows that big budget collaborations can bare succulently sweet fruit when in the right hands.
Dreamcast
A Bit Special
A tribute to Tokyo’s brightest district that lights up to the God of neon and is full of devotees to all things PVC and video game related. This title used the sadly defunct Dreamcast net to allow players customized characters to battle it out about all things a good otaku should know. Clever use of the systems VMU too. Full title Akihabara Dennou Kumi Peta Pies!
PC Engine HU Card
Puzzle
Move parts of pipe around the screen to ensure the safe passage of the ball. Like all great puzzlers, really simple to play; yet gameplay soon becomes devishly fiendish causing very sweaty palms!
PSP
Action
Stealth can be fun as Solid Snake sneaks up on unsuspecting guards and utilises the silenced sniper to take them down with a slug. A real credit to Konami and Kojima san.
PSP
Shooter
Its possible to pick up and mash a few buttons in this superb incarnation of the Formula Front series. Yet to truly prosper players must pilot their mech to its strengths whilst being aware of its weaknesses. The fact Genki likes to hit and run may reveal too much about our character.
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
A fine tribute to the silver faced superhero – fitting better than his red lycra suit. Battle various rejects from a Toho movie using Ultramans array of super slick techniques before being required to pull off the finishing move. Japan can sleep well safe in the knowledge no – one gets past this bad boy from Nebula M78, well no-one in a rubber suit that is…
Super Famicom
RPG
Captures that classic, regal look that screams Super Famicom polish, but has plenty of its own character and non-player characters keeping it interesting and fresh.
Super Famicom
Platform
Modern gaming definitely misses the humour of Shiney’s Earthworm: pure fun and full of creative genius. Nice to remind yourself what you may have been missing.
Super Famicom
Platform
A rare cart in Japan with the unlikely hero looming large on the screen as he traverses through various platform locales: beach, graveyard and finally jungle to complete his quest with a hint of double entendre. Known as Odekake Lester or Lester the Unlikely in the West.
Famicom Cart
Simulation
Military action as the army must capture enemy territory, but fear not: its arcade roots make this very accessible to pick up and play with hidden tactical depth for the budding field marshals.
GameBoy Original
Sports
Ticks all the boxes of a ten pin bowling game with a skill meter and angle chosen important in getting the strike. Nice celebration scenes to a strike and a good feel to the action, in a Japanese, international way!
GameBoy Original
RPG
Big, bold sprites allow the gender bending Takakhashi manga to come to life on the GameBoy. Plenty of exploring and a dash of fisticuffs in this fine conversion of the intriguing source material.
GameBoy Original
Sports
Kickstart for the GameBoy with daring loops that require a power up to negotiate. But its not just full throttle: players must keep the bike at the right angle or flip off the handlebars, losing valuable time.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Captures the comedy of the source material as Bakabon clings on to the platform levels that must be negotiated, albeit with the help of a bowl of noodles power up, before tackling the madcap bosses. Full title Heisei Tensai Bakabon.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Cheerful chip tunes and big, bold sprites, plus the character of Kai ensure this is a well treasured Famicom title. Collecting keys and potions, avoiding fire breathing dragons and escape to the door out of the level by the skin of your teeth are the order of the day. Translates as Kai’s adventure. Also known as The Quest of Ki.
Soundtracks
Soundtrack
Double, bumper CD from the famed Senran Kagura series that has many devotees to its femme fatale fight formula.
