Famicom Cart
Board Game
Colourful take on the board game based fight fest with strategic cards the order of the day to beat an opponent in combat. Plenty of animated fight scenes to savour. Full title: Dragonball Z KyouShuu Saiyajin.
Famicom Cart
Board Game
Subtitled The Legend of Goku, our hero manoeuvres around the board getting into scrapes where the fights play out in the form of card battles. Plenty of lively avatars and tunes add that Dragonball vitality.
Famicom Cart
Board Game
Card based combat as players traverse the Dragonball lands getting into scrapes more often than not.
Super Famicom
Shoot Em Up
Highly imaginative vertically scrolling outer space blast with a nice, chunky feel to the sprites and bosses with good use of the hardware to produce fine backgrounds too. Very commendable.
PSP
RPG
Released on the tenth anniversary of the original PSO, the graphical standard and the speed at which lay revolves must be applauded. Yet the bare bones of the game are very much the Dreamcast version which caused such a stir in the gaming community when the servers were online. Co-operative play is possible along with other, less friendly multi-player opportunities.
Super Famicom
Action
An inventive twist on the Bomberman World in the form of an action puzzler. The bombs move across the screen in formation and players must detonate them at the right time and target the right bomb in order to create a chain reaction and clear the stage. Quick thinking is a must.
PS4
Platform
Unlike most platformers super hero style jumps aren’t possible – instead a trusty fishing rod is used to latch onto platforms and guide our schoolgirl heroine around. But here she must tackle other adversaries in a sort of Power Stone meets Smash Bros battle melee.
Nintendo 64
One on One Beat Em Up
Plenty of all-star combatants from the Nintendo range, taking each other on in innovative arenas with plenty of little touches, such as dust clouds on impact, that relay that Nintendo magic. Yet beneath the pretty candy coloured characters lies a pretty brutal fight engine.
Famicom Cart
Platform
The Battletoad games are very collectable and its easy to see why in this Rare crafted version. Cliched some of the locations may be, but when the execution is of such high standard its easy to see why they become much imitated and rarely bettered. Fun, wholesome action that squeezes every iota out of the hardware.
Famicom Cart
Puzzle
Clear the blocks from the screen by shooting them to extend their length and turn them into big squares. They then disappear in time for another wave descending down the screen.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Toe tapping chip tunes do justice to the original soundtrack as players cruise the streets in Ecto 1 to scale buildings to capture the ghosts inside. A memorable boss rush run in with a naked Keymaster awaits! A very solid licensed title – a combination that not often goes together – based on the blockbusting film.
Famicom Cart
Shoot Em Up
Vertically scrolling helicopter based blaster. Think 1941 with copters for planes. Taito once again showing its expertise in crafting very competent shooters. Also known as Kyukyoku Tiger.
PS3
Action
High tension and even higher stakes calls for a cool hand from Snake when stealthily sneaking past guards and taking down CCTV cameras to free the key hostage. As ever, the twist awaits…
XBOX
Simulation
A love triangle where the hair lines are plentiful and there is plenty of J Pop songs in the air.
Nintendo DS
Simulation
Capturing Pokemon is a strangely compelling hobby and the stylus works a treat with quick squiggles used to net the many and varied Pokemon.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
Colourful character sticker to transform a 3DSLL complete with two removable screen seals to protect against scratches.
Gamecube
Action
Brings back warm memories of Rampage as the kaiju get to toss around boulders, buildings and fellow monsters to destroy opponents, usually the city gets flattened too.
Gamecube
RPG
Such a fabulous world lends itself to becoming a role playing game and it looks a treat in cel shaded glory as Megaman whizzes around getting into the turn based battles Genki certainly wouldn’t challenge such a well-equipped character too.
Gamecube
RPG
Every detail exudes a triple A title with lavish visuals blended with anime avatars, stirring orchestral score and high-end voice acting. The look is really stunning even today adding up to an epic opus.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
Very smart, officially licensed sticker to convert a 3DSLL into a Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney themed handheld. Discrete design with Japanese phrases from the game melded into the print.
PS2
Simulation
Part of the Lady genre in Japan: a romantic adventure from a girls perspective as players negotiate a love minefield not getting too distracted in the quest to find the kidnapped sister. Divine voice acting and illustration.
