PSP
RPG
Fantasy style action RPG with gorgeous graphics to die for – fluidly animated and all in colourful, painstakingly detailed 2D. Highly original battle system where by you fight your opponents real time as opposed to turn based number crunching. And the attack effects look dazzling on the PSP screen, although unfortunately the code hasn’t been optimised to fit the screen snugly. Unlockable characters add to the longevity. Updated from the rare and coverted Saturn release.

Famicom Cart
RPG
Rescue the Tomato Princess and receive the praise of the Broccoli King to become a fine, upstanding cucumber. Possibly the strangest way to encourage salad consumption, but a wonderfully crafted adventure and in friendly Hiragana for those budding students of Japanese: be in language or culture. Known in Japan as Salad no Kuni no Tomato Hime.
GameBoy Original
Simulation
Captures the fun of taking print club pictures which dominated the arcades of Japan. Features can be tweaked in capturing a dream sticker. Also known as Purikura Club Pocket.
Sega Saturn
Stimulation
An off shoot of the series with this disk focusing on the Japanese ‘kogyaru'(from ‘dark’ and ‘girl’ fashion phenomena of dark skin with light eye make up. Packed full of photos, FMV footage and kogyaru themed mini games making this a must for the ‘Fruits’ savvy fashion fan.
Mega CD
Sports
Boxing game with FMV graphics that require players to bob and weave in order to avoid staring up at the referee too much from the canvas floor of the ring. Stylish video capture and nice presentation make for an enjoyable bout.
PC Engine HU Card
Sports
Despite the cartoony look to the cover, this baseball game is actually quite an accurate representation in the C64 World Series mould with both pitching, batting and fielding all working well with good use of the screen to provide the full package. Full title: Kore Ga Pro Baseball 89 (This is Pro Baseball 89.)
Famicom Cart
Sports
Known as RBI Baseball across the pond, this sports slugger certainly covers all bases with some nice touches such as the homerun fireworks. But the secret of Moneyball is not the big slugs, but the percentages.
Famicom Cart
Sports
Known as RBI Baseball 3 in the US of A. And you can almost smell the corn dogs and popcorn. Just ensure any catches are left to the players and not the crowd reaching over the barriers as happened in one crucial match we would hate to remind the culprit of…
Sega Saturn

Based on the two Japanese leagues (Pacific and Central), this update of the popular Greatest Nine series utilises polygon players to add to the swish looking stadia. Worth a look for the baseball fan and a bargain, brand new addition to the Saturn collector.

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 64
Sports
Utilises out of proportion players with giant heads in a similar style to Konami’s popular Power Pro Baseball series. Also features the major teams of the Japanese pro league so players can savour match ups such as the Yakult Swallows vs. Nippon Ham. The simultaneous four player mode is as enjoyable as the slick play mechanics. Known in Japan as ‘Chou Kuukan Night Pro Yakyuu King.’
PS3
Sports
Baseball game simulator that looks like watching a televised game with the switch of cameras and succinct commentary. Very slick.
Super Famicom
Sports
Fine example of EA’s early potential in covering all bases with its American Football knowledge. Released in Japan under the Imagineer banner, but this is firmly Madden for the Super Famicom territory.
Super Famicom

Japanese version of John Madden 93 and EA pull out all the locker room tricks to bring the sport home for the first time in great realism.
Famicom Disk System
Sports
A well established golf manga and a game make for a good combo in Genki’s humble opinion with the colour and intrigue of the manga source material adding fun and adventure as players challenge Grand Canton still ravines alongside the robotic, clean cut lines of the futuristic level.

Sports
Ticks all the boxes for those who know their half nelsons from their clotheslines with an electric atmosphere to bouts as crowds lap up the action and a roster of moves that surely cant all be in the Grapple Fans Almanac. Knocks many of its rival titles to the mat for a standing count.
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
Action
Sega reincarnates the seminal Minotaur man beast platformer which woo-ed the proud owners of the giant sprite action title in the early nineties. And its evolved into a beat to be very proud of with action based 3D gameplay worthy of the nostalgia. Players take the role of a man exposed to genomes that cause mutations. Behind all the bizarre transformations lies a mystery government experiment bringing a Biohazard-like conspiracy theory to the games undercurrent. The mutation element is well utilised with players able to capture new abilities to tear into the poor human adversaries and other beasts. And the over 18 rating is well warranted as liberated limbs and high pressured arteries make for an on screen blood bath. There is plenty to keep the completist busy too with twenty five beats to unlock in Gallery mode.

J Pop boy band Project V6 have a fine repertoire of tracks and plenty of them can be sampled in this Playstation dating game which was a forefather to the boom in dating games aimed at the girls.

Connects the PS2 to a Docomo mobile telephone which has to be the height of retro chic.
