Brilliant Switch
Shoot Em Up
Switch version and eagerly awaited shmup port of the Naomi board based Dreamcast blast that also found a home on the 360 and PS2. The crux of this shooters story is the ability to capture enemy ships and either use them as a shield or send them spinning off out of control with a deft joypad flick. The home version includes the original arcade mode, along with a story, arrange and training modes plus the chance to tweak with the controls and screen dimensions. Story mode adds speech to the levels along with various endings depending on which character the player selected. Arrange is a mish mash of the arcade and story modes that must be completed on a measly single credit.

Shoot Em Up
Standard version of the eagerly awaited shmup port of the Naomi board. The crux of this shooters story is the ability to capture enemy ships and either use them as a shield or send them spinning off out of control with a deft joypad flick. The Switch Enhanced version includes plenty of extras over the Dreamcast original, like the PS2 port. Story mode adds speech to the levels along with various endings depending on which character the player selected. Arrange is a mish mash of the arcade and story modes that must be completed on a measly single credit.
Playstation
Puzzle
A highly-collectable puzzle game in which players must get their brains thinking on the lines of triangles to slot them together and deliver punishing chains to your opponent. A cheery array of characters and enjoyable in-game animations for those with enough time to glance at them. Developer Santos is better known for Airgrave and Stahlfeder on the format.
Switch
Shoot Em Up
Insane amount of projectiles on screen as the wee witches avoid the harmful ones whilst swooping on their brooms to grab the power ups needed to keep reciprocating the bullet barrage. Lovely graphical style to suit the witches theme.

PS2
RPG
Fantasy themed RPG with plenty of Sony spit and polish demonstrating the creators fine grasp of the hardware with a classical and pretty RPG look and resoundingly accomplished musical score.
Dreamcast
Simulation
Saccharine sweet and that’s just the J-Pop opening tune before you have met the ladies that star in this school based romantic game.
Super Famicom
Sports
A fine tribute to the sport taking a cutsey approach to representing the wrestlers and with plenty of fun that the sumo powers would be unlikely to approve of as bouts take place on beaches with rabbit umpires or on the Statue of Liberty, or as the sumos modesty gets revealed.
PS2
Simulation
Probably not the best language tool to learn Japanese from, unless it’s a quite effeminate way of talking you are looking to master. It’s a tight-rope to walk to avoid upsetting the games mostly female protagonists and best of British with it!
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
A fine accessory allowing GameBoy variant gamer to save their progress on games with the Turbo File mark, especially on memory hungry games.
Nintendo Hardware
Accessory
Used to save files on Ascii Super Famicom titles with a large capacity thanks to the two calculator batteries required. Very handy piece of kit to save progress on Gunmans Proof and the like.
Super Famicom
Sports
Thoroughbred racing sim that has very well drawn horses as breeders put the foals through their paces to see if they make the trophy races or get put out to pasture.
Sega Saturn
Sports
Gaining entry to the winners paddock involves plenty of hard slog in the wind and rain before feeling the sun on your back and the taste of sweet champagne in the enclosure.
PC Engine HU Card

Popular sports series honed at the Turbo Grafx massive over the other side of the Pond. Realistic approach with plenty of options to tweak for the those who know there blitzs from their inside runs. Does exactly what it says on the box.

Playstation
RPG
Twinbee takes its Opa Opa style ships on legs and spins them into a fine yarn in the 3D mode of many Playstation titles yet with plenty of spit and polish added by Konami. A fun side quest from the blaster action with plenty of gags and the usual colour of the brash and bold series.
PS2
Shooter
Irem takes In the Hunt into the deep sea – a realm seldom used in gaming and the submarine shooting action drips atmosphere with the ping of radar detecting enemy presence. Its not all guns blazing: missions are varied, but the feel of the propulsion of the submarine and the sea setting work a treat.
XBOX
Sports
Brutal cage fighting as the solid fighters go toe to toe with a crowd baying for blood. The pugilists are heavy and the blows they land have a solid feel to them, enough to induce the odd wince off screen too as Capcom ticks all the boxes on this official license.
Playstation
A Bit Special
A real cult following behind this game and also ‘Moon’ due to the developer’s blank canvas approach to realising their real work of passion. In UFO players must take photos in order to identify aliens missing from a crash. Basically suspicious events occur which are a good indicator of some alien involvement. These photos can be then used to locate the MIA aliens. Requires careful thought and observation and reveals that all games don’t have to be the same.

Side Scrolling Beat Em Up
Nissin noodles promoted game and as such very noodle flavoured including characters such as the Pie Men, Mr. Fork and Chopstick Woman. The hero himself is named after fried noodles and the villain wears a kettle on his head… In fact the hero will start slurping from the bowl of noodles on his head should you leave him for long enough. But when called into action the yaki soba sauce attack goes down a treat.
Sony Hardware
Controller
Compatible with both the Playstation and PS2 making this a very useful compact joystick with good layout, responsive stick and turbo and clear functions.
GameBoy Original
RPG
Simplistic, yet beautifully clear sprite graphics ensure the gameplay is fluid as dank dungeons are explored with axes to chuck at adversaries. Captures the Ultima essence perfectly and is a very fitting addition to the series, despite the small screen origins.
GameBoy Original
RPG
Enchanting chip tunes draw the gamer into the cult Ultima world in this fine sequel that was overshadowed by Zelda at the time. Yet there is plenty of fine gameplay within its RPG dungeon’s walls to sing its praises from the highest of its castles’ towers.
Dreamcast
One on One Beat Em Up
Not quite wrestling, not boxing – no holds seem barred either in this encaged grapple fest. Plenty of modes of play and makes good use of the license, even down to the ability to edit your player. Still even without changing your man there are some brutal looking bruisers to choose from.
