Mega Drive
Side Scrolling Beat Em Up
Xiaomei captures the spirit of Kung-Fu Master and takes players through the limestone cliffs of China, dispatching all and sundry with a well placed kick or inch punch to comically fall from the scrolling levels. Great to see the Mega Drive alive and kicking in 2023.
Merchandise
Figure
Toad makes for a very cheery plush for fans of Kyoto’s Nintendo to savour his understated role in helping Mario, Peach et al.
Merchandise
Figure
A soft plush figure of the man from the Big N with the moustache. Looking good in vibrant red and blue.
Merchandise
Figure
Cute Rosetta plush in a shrunk-down, baby style with long fringe and dummy.
Merchandise
Figure
Bunbun is a colourful character from the Super Mario universe and well worthy of a plush to add to the collection.
Merchandise
Figure
Genki doesn’t mind the odd Goomba: very agreeable adversaries that don’t hang around for too long and annoy. Known as a Pata Kuribo in Japan.
Merchandise
Merchandise
A fitting way for the Zelda fan to store their pass card with this Hyrule themed shield motif holder.
Merchandise
Figure
Put together the Japanese word for bad (warui) and tag it on to Luigi and you get this villain looking like our friendly Luigi, but with bandy legs and upside down ‘L’.
Merchandise
Figure
Fine tribute to the stalwart Link complete with sword and shield and very dapper Breath of the Wild tunic.
PS3
One on One Beat Em Up
Plenty of goading and eye catching backgrounds that distract from the smooth play mechanics honed by years of experience in sweeping all before it in the 2D fighting world.
Dreamcast
RPG
Stunningly pretty RPG really hits its stride and was worthy of far greater attention. Capcom really put the hard yards into this series and its clear here why it has its dedicated aficionados.
Wonderswan
Simulation
Board game version of the colourful capers of the pirate crew with players each trying to outwit the others to find it to the treasure – loved by pirates everywhere. Pretty animation and plenty of work has gone into this worthy licensed title.
Playstation
A Bit Special
Another fine escapade that captures the relentless action and humour of the anime series including plenty of slapstick and deadpan jokes. The introduction seamlessly leads the player into the crux of the game with some click anime showing Bandai’s high value placed on its series.
PS2
One on One Beat Em Up
Tough guy fight title that uses elbows, knees and no holds barred as pugilists become wrestlers when bouts crumble to the floor with a submission as good as a knock out. The legendary Brazilian Gracie features alongside Japanese wrestler Sakuraba with a lot of work having gone into making a great resemblance only for players to bash away at their chiselled features. But its not just the players features that have been carefully mapped out: each individuals moves add a lot of depth and make for a very well rounded fight fest.
PS2
One on One Beat Em Up
New meets old as stylish anime speed lines are spliced with traditional pilgrim hats, baggy, monk trousers all set to tatami mats and with atmospheric rain downpours. Some serious special moves that can blast your opponent across the entire, and sometimes lengthy, arenas. Great blend of action and specials spiced up with some sumptuous anime.
Dreamcast
Sports
Zippy bike game that does without the unforgiving bike physics and in doing so takes an arcade approach to racing. The weather effects and courses are very nicely drawn with no slow down and it brings us ample evidence of the raw processing power of the DC. The tunes are also relentless making it hard to let go of the throttle at times.
PS2
Action
Gundam mecha robots battle it out using the Seed power up to inflict some serious paintwork damage on opponents. A real host of mechs are selectable in the versus mode with extras only accessible by first unlocking them. The presentation, graphical look and soundtrack with voice overs all reflect the immense proportions of the Gundam series and are suitably slick.
PS2
Simulation
Sammy has fine lineage in the pachinko stable and excels here once again in recreating the parlour at home with colourful eye candy graphics and toe tapping tunes.
Sony Hardware
Controller
Dance Summit features some real rip roaring tunes to groove to as you dress up as a Mexican wrestler or Disney style bird to mention but two of the extravagant costumes. The controller comes with a mini version of a PS2 controller (albeit with no dual sticks) and pads which attach to your palms allowing you to really get in the groove whilst cracking out some shapes. Part of the Bust A Move series.
Nintendo 64
One on One Beat Em Up
Various super heroes looking like Dural crossed with the Power rangers enjoy the 3D arenas with Lethal Challenges possible as pugilists lock horns during battle. Its possible to bet on the outcome (not that Genki would condone such unprofessionalism) and some tasty combos add to the impressive package.
Nintendo Hardware
Controller
Cult developer Halken turns its fair hand to hardware with impressive results in this JB King controller. Very intuative layout and well produced with no skimping on switches.
