Sony Hardware
Controller
Enhances enjoyment of the Beatmania series ten fold with the buttons laid out just where the player needs them ‘to produce a pleasant and cool sound’ and the turntable for authentic feeling scratching. ‘The moment you make a scratch, you will be hooked on Beatmania.’ Another wacky yet essential console accessory fresh from Japan.
Sony Hardware

Sony Hardware
Controller
Improve your dance step using this DDR mat compatible with the Playstation titles. Far better to practise in the comfort of your own home before unleashing your moves on the arcade groupies. Genki keeps the curtains firmly shut when grooving and gyrating, for now…
Sony Hardware
Controller
Sony attained such levels of perfection in its Playstation controller, it is little wonder the winning formula has changed so little over the new incarnations of its hardware. Intuitive and snug, most reassuring when being chased by the undead in Biohazard to avoid button flapping and mashing.
Sony Hardware
Controller
Fishing controller adding great realism to the sport’s sims on the Playstation. Whilst you my look a little strange frantically casting and reeling in the comfort of your living room, this shouldn’t be allowed to get in the way of bagging a nice fighting tench from the comfort of your own armchair with packed lunch on your lap. Ascii released this as a stand alone for other fishing games coming with the Tsurikon or Tsurikon 2 logo.

Incredible attention to detail in this scale Playstation console model with every chip in the right place and authentic stickers to finish off that perfect look. Unfortunately doesn’t play games.
Sony Hardware
Accessory
Plugs into the memory card slot to add old school cheats to the likes of Musashinden, Metal Gear Solid, Twinbee RPG, ThunderForce V, and more.
Sony Hardware
Controller
The height of kitsch which every self respecting otaku shouldn’t be without. Even comes with a stop watch rest. Infinitely adds to the realism when playing Densha De Go on the Playstation.
Dreamcast
Puzzle
Classic Japanese puzzle action with frantic pace, anime characters and plenty of cussing in despair and whooping in delight. Coloured spheres must be matched with other colours. The twist being your platform can only hold so much weight before it gradually gives way under the strain of too many spheres and gets pushed to the bottom of the screen. Fast flowing and full of fun.
GameBoy Original
Action
Makes ace use of the monochrome screen as players bound the platforms clearing away the Bero men baddies with a tactical comb or two in order to clear the level and progress. Much sort after due to being released in a collectable tin, as opposed to a card box.
GameBoy Color
Puzzle
The playable dragon can manoeuvre around the screen to give an extra dimension to this block out style game with indestructible blocks causing much disdain. Beautifully presented and a fine example of the genre.
GameBoy Original
Simulation
A wonderful premise of a game: try and keep the family of the household happy. Cheap rent is always a good place to start. Very compelling.
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
Super deformed (shrunk down) versions of the SFII phenomena that swept the world including high school student Sakura with her Spring Image attack and Zangief with his Russian Beat attack. Finely balanced play mechanics and exotic backgrounds. Complete with full speech in the anime scenes which didn’t make the cut in the Western release.
GameBoy Original
Sports
Simply animated on screen action and appealing avatars convey the emotion of the simple yet at times frustrating game. A fine all round representation of the sport and a pleasure to whittle away long journeys.
Game Gear
Simulation
Travel Japan racking up the mahjong tiles for a game of the ancient Chinese table game. Smoothly presented with some nice graphical sugar to wash down the serious business of the game.
Playstation
Simulation
A growing up simulator with Kano the star as layers celebrate events like their birthday together. The real selling point is the use of the Pocket Station to ensure players never have to leave home without her. Unfortunately for Kano, cooking and studying are on the agenda as well as playing.
Dreamcast
Simulation
Meet the ladies of Pocket Kano and get to comment on their apartments and the like. But its best to avoid tongue in cheek comments which may fall flat. As tempting as it may be.
GameBoy Original
Puzzle
Like all the best puzzlers – easy to pick up, but refuses to let go. Puyo Puyo is at the pinnacle of its genre: sublime, fluid gameplay backed up with zany characters including a samurai mole and a grape aubergine…?
Nintendo Hardware
Handheld
Mini PocketStation style Pocket Sakura to add to the in game experience when used in conjunction with the Sakura Wars GB GameBoy Color title, displaying mini graphics of Asakusa, the Sakura characters and rickshaws.
GameBoy Original
Simulation
The ancient Japanese game of shougi comes to the GameBoy. Capture your opponents pieces by jumping over them. But be sure to think ahead to become a true master.
Famicom Cart
Platform
A time travelling money should come as no surprise as plenty of moneys have been dispatched into space ships over the years. This one is handy with a boomerang to clock a few choice dinosaurs or sharks. Its possible to transform into a mech style monkey (being a Bandai title) and also to traverse levels in a shoot em up style in the ship that delivers the player to the different time zones.
Playstation
Action
Madcap, multiplayer mayhem as up to four players battle it out in varied arenas from deserts to neon cityscapes. Players chuck rocks at each other avoid the non-player adversary, be it a UFO or the rock that is actually a curled-up T Rex. Real, pure gaming fun. Known as Poy Poy in the West.
