Wonderswan
Simulation
Utilising the weighty Gundam license with a battle simulation engine as the giant mech dismantle rival enemy vessels.
Super Famicom
A Bit Special
Contains three arcade classics on the one cart: Moon Cresta, Crazy Climber and Frisky Tom. So we have a pre-Galga shooter with the steady hand eye co-ordination required for the docking levels, a climbing game where opening windows, flying plant pots and bird droppings conspire to hinder your progress to the top of the building and finally a puzzler where the water pipe must be repaired to help the fair lady get her shower. Quite a mixed bunch then.
Super Famicom
Sports
The World Cup Edition as Formation does its take on Diana Ross’ missed goal and the all American razzmatazz of the USA 94 World Cup. Updated to include all the correct stats for the ground collecting anoraks.
Super Famicom
RPG
The friendly village folk are well represented in the detailed houses of the town. Its a shame they don’t offer more weaponry for free seeing as it is your good self that has to enter the dark dungeon and plough through the creatures and critters that stand in your way. Still free enterprise does bring a good range of merchandise to squander your hard earned currency on.
Sega Hardware
Controller
Very solid production values in this licensed Hori crafted arcade stick with coin – op style button layout and turbo repeat dip switches. A real intuitive joy to behold on SF II and any fighting title with the buttons just where you need them.
Dreamcast
RPG
The second and final release of PSO on the Dreamcast improved and toughened up the AI of its various inhabitants as well as giving the textures a lick of paint, some mighty weaponry, improved NPC robots and new modes of play. Touched on online gaming nirvana for a while, but now that Pandora’s Box has been opened the Holy Grail quest for the ultimate online experience continues.
Dreamcast
A Bit Special
3D version of the popular anime series that allows players to sample to the fine J Pop, delve into mini games and get to know the characters and costumes. The game makes the most of its source material with players filming their own anime sequences. Also includes mini games such as the Columns style puzzler with it being possible to set off some serious combos.
Mega Drive
Sports
Making good use of the official J League license with easy to pick up and play arcade style mechanics. This style of football game is no longer made, but there is plenty to celebrate in the free flowing football style and quick pacing.
Mega Drive
Sports
Select and boxer and then their attributes in order to rise up the rankings to meet the might Holyfield. Each purse brings with it the opportunity to spend on training the boxer up in new skills. But it will take more than just drinking a few raw egg milk shakes to become the champ. Good attention to detail including sprays of sweat and blood on landing a punch plumb on the jaw.
Mega Drive
Shoot Em Up
Distinct overtones of a certain Irem release that was causing a stir at the time, not that Sega were the only ones guilty of cloning R Type at the time. Still the programmers have created some clever effects and eye catching bosses to raise this multi directional scroller above your average shmup.
Mega Drive
Sports
Does what it says on the box in setting up two giants of the NBA against each other to try and rack up a cricket score. Should be played in the authentic Air Jordan boots for the real deal and to put a spring in your attempts from downtown to bring a tasty ripple of applause from the crowd.
Mega Drive
Action
Big box EA special with fast-paced run and gun platform action and stonking tracks that grind out every iota of resonance from the chip tunes. Known in the West as Fatal Rewind.
Nintendo 64
Action
Import only exclusive title in which you battle robots but can also customise the main body, legs, gun, bomb and special weapon to last longer. Easy to see why this game was so popular in Japan sparking a sequel with some light RPG elements to distract from the heavy metal fights.
Mega Drive
Action
A futuristic game of handball with cyborg suits and unforgiving metallic court as players get the steel ball down the far end to try and score by hook or by crook. Reminiscent of the cult movie classic Rollerball.
Mega Drive
Simulation
Snatcher style gameplay with a sci fi setting packed with tension as the story gradually cocoons you up. Graphically and aurally pleasing and well worthy of a second look.
PS2
RPG
A data disk to boost the vast size of the online Final Fantasy XI world. Online has taken the series to unimaginable heights when its original, humble roots are considered.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Romance and adventure all set to a typical game music (like you get lift music, apart from game music) and an imperial, fantasy setting: think Heroic Legend of Arslan anime. Ticks all the right boxes and a popular series that spanned onto the PCFX and Playstation.
🏆Brilliant!

Mega Drive
Sports
One of the most collectable Japanese Mega Drive games and much sort after for the completist. The sound effects include the hooter, squeaking shoes and, of course, bouncing ball and the presentation is slick; making great use of the license.
PS2
Simulation
This instalment of the legendary robot series led to a full animated version, such was its popularity in Japan. The battles remain immense and fully intense with anime style productions skills to hike up the tension and emotion. An epic battle sim and manna from heaven for Taisen devotees.
