Animal Crossing Figures
Figure
Isabelle (known in Japan as Shizue) looking very pretty in pink leaf logo shirt and friendly face to welcome you to Animal Crossing.
PS4
Shoot Em Up
Gunbird, Gunbird 2, Gunbarich, Sengoku Ace, Sengoku Cannon and Sengoku Blade on show like a yakuza’s tattoos as Psikyo whips its shirt off and flexes its back-catalogue muscles. Genki loves the Sengoku series varied locales and ships that combine the future and past of Japan in one crazy melee.
Gamecube
Action
Gameplay has two sections: on-rails, Star Fox style and free roaming shooting. Gameplay takes place on the back of a dragon a la Panzer Dragoon. The anime based story revolves around being transported into an alternate reality where battles on the backs of Dragons are commonplace. Developed by Treasure.
Nintendo 3DS
RPG
Bowser comes to the fore as Mario & Luigi negotiate through his body whilst Bowser himself happily romps around terra firma. Colourful, clear graphics help eagle eyed players spot the key to progress. Lashing of the Big N, triple-A polish.
Sega Saturn
Shoot Em Up
An interesting look into the psyche of the Japanese game developer with some bizarre and often culturally confused imagery ensuring the action remains fresh and invigorating. This is actually a compilation of the two Super Famicom versions Parodius and Ultimate Parodius souped up for the Saturn. Also known as Gokujyo Parodius.
Merchandise
Merchandise
Delightful and stylish set of playing cards as Nintendo gets back to grass roots and its original form of the business. This set is a tribute to Mario’s Famicom years and looks snazzy in his early Famicom chic.
Merchandise
Merchandise
Nintendo gets back to its core business with these superb cards for fans of the Splatoon series. Colourful and capturing the cheeky, fun essence of the game to a T.
PS4
Shoot Em Up
Famed Fighter Jet Blaster Raiden IV gets a Mikado Game Centre remix with various modes and selectable ships plus a soundtrack so full of guitar riffs you’ll end up playing on a knee slide, if the projectile hell doesn’t break you first. Superb execution from a thoroughbred shooter stable that keeps on giving.
PS4
Shoot Em Up
With the series having started as Moon Cresta, followed by Terra Cresta, we now have Sol Cresta and the outer space galaxy setting looks superb as a background to the frantic on screen blasting action. Vertically scrolling and making fine use of modern hardware to flip around some serious hardware that our vessel must take down. Great to see so many fine shooters being released for all to savour.
Nintendo Hardware
Cable
Link cable designed for the original GameBoy to allow two player action on appropriate titles for a nostalgic trip to retro gaming heaven.
GameBoy Color
RPG
Explore the alien world in this colourful RPG full of unusual monsters as the Mon Colle Knights try and find the six artefacts to link the alien world to Earth.
Super Famicom
Platform
Just like buses, another delightful looking Super Famicom game comes along and gamers of a certain vintage feel their fingertips feeling a lot less arthritic. Kaizou Chounin Shubibinman has fine heritage on the PC Engine and is known as Shockman in the West. This SFC re-release is a very exciting development that will hopefully be well supported and keep the trend going.
Mega Drive
Rhythm
Famed for its Famicom revival, Columbus Circle turns its fair hand to the 16Bit circuit with impressive results. Based on a rhythm action premise, there are four games; baseball relies on hitting in time to the beat, the Space Invaders style shooting is again in time to the rhythm, the platform action requires jumping hazards to the music and finally the space defense relies on using the shields at the right time and in the right place. Roll on more MD action.
GameBoy Advance
Simulation
Strangely compelling to train up a sprite-based creature and let them do battle with other monsters down on the farm. Its easy to get attached and hard to watch if taking a pummelling.
Playstation
Sports
Plenty for grapple fans to get to grips with including the special moves and good array of wrestlers to choose from. Subtitled Hyper Tag Match.
PS2
A Bit Special
The superbly drawn anime story zips along and players must choose from phrases to shape the direction of the story. Careful choices are required to not become the headline scandal yourself.
GameBoy Original
Puzzle
Beautiful monochrome simplicity as Popeye takes down Bluto (helped by a can of spinach power up) then negotiates the mazes to rescue Olive Oyl. Fine use of the cherished license.
Playstation
Sports
Intriguing twist on the football scene in that players take a third person perspective view of their teams star man and play the 90 minutes as that single player. Give and go or risk being subbed off after thirty minutes.
Playstation
Platform
Pseudo 2.5 3D look to the platforming action with some delightful Konami classy touches such as making a splash tubing down the waterfall or hitting the backside of the animal to be able to use it for higher reaching jumps. The jungle looks ace and the overall package shows plenty of care and attention.
