Here we have all the games in the Shop Section.
Sega Saturn
Action
Sonic Team once again underlines it’s prowess and originality when given a free hand. Saving trapped souls from burning buildings is the order of the day. Unfortunately coming too late in the day to save the Saturn…
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
Lauded by many of gaming’s cognoscenti for it’s stance of one hit, one kill. Requires the patience and zen of a true samurai.
Playstation
Rhythm
Sick moves, though those of a younger persuasion may disagree. Players have to be in tune with the tracks to match the rhythm of the button presses required or the needle on the record will start scratching badly.
Famicom Cart
Puzzle
An enjoyable playing card based game in the Tetris/Puyo Puyo/Columns mould when instead of blocks or squishy balls, players must align the cards to make flushes of the same suit or, for example, Jack, Queen, King. Pleasant chip tunes and bunny girls to complete the Eighties Vega theme.
PC Engine Super CD ROM
Simulation
Digital comic adventure requiring knowledge of Japanese writing or good luck to be able to progress. Lots of anime babes to converse with and good voice acting. One for the Japanese dating scholars?
XBOX 360
Shoot Em Up
Moss unleash quite a beast in this version of bullet hell that seems to be connected direct to hell with its dark overtones and gothic splendour. Certainly not lacking in imagination as bosses utilise their full 3D capabilities to put the willies up players ships having to share the same screen space that feels positively claustrophobic during such encounters. Splendid character design and a heart beat in sync with Akiba culture chic. A real otakus dream realised in glorious gothic graphics.
Super Famicom
Sports
Classic Atari fun in the Californian sun with summer sports to savour and impress the judges with your prowess for riding the crest of a wave amongst other events.

Merchandise
A fine gift that came with those sharp enough to preorder the PS4 title. Includes an artbook tribute to its pasty chic along with DLC and CD with the games tunes. Known as Caligula Effect in the West.
Sega Saturn
Stimulation
Love simulation game from KID – experts in the field. Sizzling enough to warrant a Red Label adults only warning.
Sega Saturn
Stimulation
Love adventure with a wee bit extra that deems this title worthy of the yellow label warning. Interested parties should have good kanji ability or good luck if they hope to avoid offending Yuki, Ayako, Hikaru et al.

Simulation
Beautifully illustrated in a more pencil drawn style to reflect the artist protagonist as he goes about his craft drawing an old friend who becomes a bit closer.
Switch
One on One Beat Em Up
A real fight fest for fans of the genre with both incarnations of Capcom vs SNK, Rival Schools, Fighting Jam, Street Fighter Zero 3, along with Star Gladiator plus double incarnations of Power Stone for a bit less-intense, more chuck away action. A real treat for those that appreciate Capcom’s eye for detail and spit and polish. Just hope you aren’t spitting teeth after a run in with some of these bad boys.

Sega Saturn
Shoot Em Up
Arcade classics 1942, 1943 and 1943 Kai on the one CD which is great to see as, aside from the 1941 Super Grafx conversion, until this release the home versions had been a tad disappointing. Thankfully Capcom’s back catalogue is well worth cashing in on.

A Bit Special
Subtitled ‘The Start of History’, one might expect more familiar titles than Son Son, Higemaru, Exed Exes and Vulgus. Exed Exes is probably the pick of the four, but with Son Son containing NHK Monkey’s exploits it will always be the apple of Genki’s eye.

Nintendo Hardware
Controller
Designed to be used on one on one fighters such as a certain Capcom title whose name escapes me. The unusual ergonomic design looks a bit bizarre, but it works a treat fitting snugly and improving even Genki’s fight prowess and special move success rate.

Thankfully Capcom’s back catalogue is well worth cashing in on. This particular version comes with a splendid art book detailing enemy planes from the games.

DVD
Featuring footage of a fine roster of titles along with some enjoyable television adverts, especially to Western audiences due to their differing marketing approaches. Okamiden, Monster Hunter Portable 3, Megaman Universe and Marvel Vs Capcom 3 will all be of interest to Capcom connoisseurs.

DVD
Features a real wealth of titles including Okami, Viewtiful Joe, Monster Hunter Portable, Goku Makimura, Street Fighter Zero 3 Double Upper and Devil May Cry. All very excitingly presented: like a menu of gourmet gaming.
Dreamcast
One on One Beat Em Up
Until released it never was truly believed that such an otaku’s dream of Ryu vs Terry Bogart battles would actually become a reality. Two of the giants of the 2D one on one combat world locking horns has never been such fun.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Unusual vertically scrolling shooter set on a background of ever changing coloured panels as players pummel opposing vessels to gain valuable dollars to spend on upgrading the ship and all important fuel. Unusual in the fact that players must keep scoring in order to keep the money coming in to progress.
Dreamcast
A Bit Special
3D version of the popular anime series that allows players to sample to the fine J Pop, delve into mini games and get to know the characters and costumes. The game makes the most of its source material with players filming their own anime sequences. Also includes mini games such as the Columns style puzzler with it being possible to set off some serious combos.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
A smart, compact case that can hold up to four DS cards and two GBA carts making it great for those who appreciate a retro game or two as well.

Look after your DS cards in style in these simply stylish Pokemon themed cases.
Super Famicom
Action
Casper and young helper manoeuvre round the isometric houses looking for clues in order to progress to the next section of the level. Its possible for Casper to go off on his own in search of clues through use of his abilities as a ghost. Very nicely drawn and realised.
