Famicom Cart
Platform
Lovely, old school platformer which has some very vibrant colours and scaling making for plenty of on screen action. The gaming is varied too with much thought and planning appearing to have gone into level design. Well recommended.
Famicom Cart
Platform
The gritty Eighties law enforcement film gets a Famicom outing with the cyborg punching lads that look like they should be delivering in Paperboy (and avoiding the Alsatian dogs that also come in for a fist of titanium justice.) A fine film tie in.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Destroying Nuke and arresting perps is all in a days work for Robocop. This leaves the urban decay of the prequel and uses a few more gaming tricks of lifts and conveyor belts in the giant factories. Some ominous robot adversaries lie in wait for our slickly animated law enforcer.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Classic Capcom gampelay with its traditional coin op slickness. Players use a sword to block aerial attacks from kite floating bombers and less subtly dispatched numbers from building block windows. Platform lifts, great pacing an even an armadillo armoured boss who rolls up to avoid attacks – its all in there. Known as Trojan in the West.
Playstation
RPG
Voted one of the most emotional games ever and even a hardened veteran like Genki had a tear in the eye through the scene itself. A sign of its compelling nature that it can strike such emotion in players once they are fully enveloped in the story.
PS2
RPG
Combines the fighting prowess of Sega’s Virtua Fighter series with action RPG elements in the ultimate fan service gesture. The game is played as young Sei who can power up by gaining moves from the familiar VF characters as well as take them on. Hopefully that doesn’t include leading the lad astray with Shun’s drunken style kung fu techniques.
PC Engine HU Card
RPG
Science fiction futuristic take on the RPG, think of Ys in space with not a fair maiden in sight. Lasers should be set to kill with all the battles which help to gain the vital experience points, but with expansive levels as grand as space itself, interesting sub plots and great combat mechanics this is a fine PC Engine RPG.
Figures
Figure
From the Yuru Camp anime and manga series (or ‘relaxed camp’) set in Yamanashi ken, these squishy figures look ace and are a good way to let off stress.
PS4
Action
Return to traditional Japanese feudal roots with plenty of sword fighting along with the odd bit of fishing and farming. Dramatic, cinematic tension with plenty of fun sub-quests in this spiritual successor to Shenmue.
SNK Hardware
Accessory
The legacy can indeed live on thanks to these screen protectors that protect against screen scratches.
PS Vita
Simulation
Drops players into the zany world of Osomatsu kun with the array of madcap characters from the series causing chaos. Makes great use of the license with the stars full of colour and backed up by fine voice acting.
PS Vita
RPG
Reminiscent of Princess Crown with its beautiful pastel shading and use of contrast between light and dark, besides the heroine princess main protagonist. Feels like a brooding fairy tale coming to life.
PSP
Sports
Fine scaling to ensure the on pitch action also remains on-screen. Graphically very sound and a smooth passing engine with the razzmatazz of the crowd and excitable commentators.
Dreamcast
Puzzle
Classic Japanese puzzle action with frantic pace, anime characters and plenty of cussing in despair and whooping in delight. Coloured spheres must be matched with other colours. The twist being your platform can only hold so much weight before it gradually gives way under the strain of too many spheres and gets pushed to the bottom of the screen. Fast flowing and full of fun.
PS2
Sports
Special and very limited edition pack containing the game playable in six different languages (including English.) The ultimate inclusion is a very high quality Adidas football shirt complete with Winning Eleven club badge. Ever more realistic with even the players hair (and mullets in some cases) moving in the direction they turn in.
XBOX 360
Sports
The Winning Eleven series updates and renovates itself on the 360 offering the widest array of options for its home console. Graphically breaks previous records on the console absolutely dripping style with players features easily recognised. Yet this is no FIFA – only the well-worked move will result in a rippling onion bag with the quicker play engine being further honed towards a modern masterpiece. The AI is varied and being all-important to the league challenge, makes for a fine knock round in 1P mode. Crossing and heading works a treat as Genki found: getting to the by-line a traditional yet preferred choice of attack. If England fans can bear the reminder from the front cover…
PS4
Action
Brutal battles as the terrifying force of the weaponry is felt. Starkly mixes cyborgs and giant organic insectoid bosses, creating a cinematic like experience.
PS4
Action
Has a feel of Zombies Ate My Neighbours as players open fire on all manner of bugs and critters to keep their crops healthy. An unusual approach to farming, but plenty of fun a result.
PS4
Action
Like a Hollywood Blockbuster, Destiny 2 grabs the bull by the horns and charges for its entire duration with relentless combat, huge pyros and dramatic score with obligatory voice acting.
Switch
Action
Plays like a souped up King of Monsters with giant kaijyu tossing opponents into skyscrapers that they dwarf. As with all gaming, its great to be able to enjoy a bit of improper action in tossing around the various items in the city arenas.
Switch
RPG
Very modern looking RPG in terms of its unusual, yet effective and striking, visual look. The combat allows the players to get involved and show-off a move or two. Characters futures are affected by the in game decisions.
