Here we have all the games in the email040826 Section.
Switch
Shoot Em Up
Raiden Fighters, Raiden Fighters 2 and Raiden Fighters Jet make up the trio of this compilation that goes in all guns blazing and takes no prisoners. The soundtrack is relentless, the in game characters given a millennial make over, yet veteran gamers may fear not as the action remains true to its pure adrenalin roots. Some may even be tempted to take advantage of the different play modes to flip back through a particularly turbulent section. A fine tribute to a much-loved series.

PS2
Action
First Sakura Taisen title developed solely for the Sony machine focuses soley on character interaction. Parisien dancers, a Japanese detective and the usual high jinx that have made the series so incredibly popular.
Gamecube
Simulation
Developed from a manga series, serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump, Shaman King sees you in different roles with colourful characters that look lush with the fine creative team behind it, well used to bringing manga to life.
Switch
Shoot Em Up
Vertical scrolling shooter Shikigami returns with a vengeance as players are rewarded for dicing with death in the onscreen insanity. Ten characters with unique power ups add to the variety and beat back any criticism of previous incarnations like a barrage of shots being flicked away. Plus its possible to change character mid stage to ensure the abilities of each fighter are put to the full use. It may just be better to go for the two player co-operative mode though. Keeps the player characters on screen in place of ships adding to the interest in choosing a player and keeps the magic of the Shikigami legend moving. Very much sort after on the Wii – big in Japan.
Super Famicom
Sports
High velocity, isometric boat race game, known as Super Kyoutei in Japan, where players whip round the sea based course with buoys that need to be avoided. Good fun and sereving of wider recognition.
🥇Game of the Week
Game of the Week Super Famicom
Platform
Factor 5 developed the original run and gun platformer that represented the finest of European game design, here all packaged up in an exquisite piece of box art for those who never sampled the highly-desired original release. The sound was optimised to the Super Famicom’s architecture using Dolby Surround. Gameplay wise it remains a treat with inspiration taken from parts one and two along with Mega Turrican making this like a hybrid remix.
Soundtracks
Soundtrack
The breath-taking soundtrack to the sold-out concert that was held in Kyoto to celebrate thirty years since the release of the Disk System version of Zelda back in 1986. Many may claim to have been there, like the Caravan gaming events of the Eighties, yet now we can all be taken on a musical voyage that encapsulates the spirit of adventure dreamed up from Miyamoto san’s childhood.
Famicom Cart
Puzzle
The eggs of the title must be aligned by Mario scrolling the other half of the egg horizontally as icons drop from the sky that need to be aligned for a Yoshi to hatch. Simple, fun and Nintendo. Known in Japan as Yoshi no Tamago.
GameBoy Advance
Platform
Take contol of the funky Jiisan (or middle age man) in this off beat action RPG quest to find the missing manga in which our main man can transform into fourteen different and comical Jiisan variations. Captures the madness of the manga excellently. Four player link up play possible. Subtitled ‘Ikari no Oshioki Blues.’
