PS2
Sports
Great use of motion capture and fine attention to detail and the uniforms of Japans premium baseball teams. Hanshin Tigers, Hiroshima Carp, Fukuoka Hawks and the appropriately named Yakult Swallows all vry for attention amongst the twelve teams. Konamis talent for sports titles is in fine fettle.
Nintendo DS
RPG
Link dons on his drivers gloves and takes control of a steam train to travel through the exquisite lands full of colour and the Eastern European graphics that work so well on the format. Plenty of battles await, as do Densha De Go style passenger drops where the track signals must be rigorously observed. A few monsters still lurk in dank dungeons and conquering them adds new abilities to Links growing repertoire. Known as Spirit Tracks in the West.
Nintendo Hardware
Controller
Lavishly retro with Hori’s high production values, this fine controller lists the following games on the Famicom it was compatible with at the time of production: After Burner, Knight Rider, Space Harrier, Pole to Finish, Sky Destroyer, Highway Star, but others will also work. On the Mega Drive its known list is: Super ThunderBlade, Space Harrier II and Super Hang-On. Boasts an autofire feature.
Famicom Cart
Action
Draws on ancient history as players do battle with oni style adversaries. Think of the Monkey series and those trying to lead them astray on their quest. The combat works well and its clear to see why it is a cherished with the rose-tinted retro glasses on.
Sega Saturn
Sports
Polygon based tennis title with some detailed textures and nice touches such as the players walking on and off for their drink of orange squash during the break. Not quite Virtua Tennis on the Saturn, but an impressive interpretation non the less.
Sega Saturn
RPG
The final installment on the Saturn and its a shame such slick design was restricted to a Japanese-only release with the entire engine having been delicately tweaked into this masterpiece by Sega’s finest craftsmen.
Super Famicom
Platform
Rockman has always faced improbable platform situations with little fear and players will need to squeeze every iota out of his dash charge and Bionic Commando style grabber arm to reach the boss section. Even the platforms themselves can fall away giving the impression all is against our Capcom Hero. But with such colourful graphics and always fair gameplay, the fault only lies with a lack of practise.
Sega Hardware
Cable
Tasty, tried and tested, custom built RGB scart cable for the Sega Saturn to enjoy a fine picture on an NTSC capable television. Put together with some serious competence and a steady, steady hand.
Sega Hardware
Controller
The best way to get the party started with these official maracas for use with the Samba De Amigo series. Its no slur on Sega though to say sometimes its more fun to watch the participant rather than the on screen action. Quite hard to track down these days.
Super Famicom
Simulation
A romantic dating game based on the popular manga and anime with venues including a concert and even where you work doing your part time job. Choosing the right words to say are the key to winning hearts, but the course of true love never runs smoothly.
Famicom Cart
RPG
Everyone’s favourite robotic cat from the future explores the gaming world in a style reminiscent of Mother as the gang travel the lands and houses. His ‘Anywhere Portal’ certain could be of use as could the ‘Bamboo Helicopter’. Just beware of those ear nibbling mice when resting.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
A very snazzy Pokemon stylus pen designed exclusively for the DSi featuring Hinoarashi or Cyndaquil in the West and also Houou (or Ho-Oh in the West.)
Playstation
A Bit Special
Nice Playstation curio coming with disk and cable that allows it to be linked to a Japanese mobile phone. Once hooked up, users can save their data from their phone or play around with a few new melodies on the console.
Super Famicom
A Bit Special
Known as Super Ninja Boy in the West, this version has more going for it that didn’t make the cut for the English language release. Jammed full of Chinese cultural references, or at least Chinese culture from a Japanese perspective, it can be pretty zany at times.
Sony Hardware
Accessory
Tough case to hold the PSP Go handheld, three SD cards and a cable or earphones.
Merchandise
Figure
Sculped by Enoki Tomohide and produced by Kaiyodo, this Kyogre figure was only available to those that preordered the Pokemon Alpha Sapphire 3DS game.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
Look after your DS cards in style in these simply stylish Pokemon themed cases.
Sony Hardware
Accessory
Definitely an unusual way to demonstrate your love of the PSP with this hard case holding the handheld with space for the UMD and memory card. Slides on to a belt.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
With a section for DS games, the stylus and the handheld itself, this football themed DS holder pouch looks fabulous in its blue livery.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
A useful toughened plastic cover to site across the DSi lid keeping it free from scratches whilst allowing the camera to be used. Very unobtrusive.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
One for the real Famicom Tinkerman or for the curio collector.
