Steve looks back at this childhood memories with Bubble Bobble on the Game Boy, and plays the arcade original.
70 years and still going strong. And with some amazing games, too.
There are countless ones that weren't mentioned. Rastan. New Zealand Story. Cadash. NINJA KIDS.
I prefer the original Rastan...or, for that matter, the very rare Warrior Blade.
"Taito's Bubble Bobble series started out in 1986 and remains popular to this day. Bubble Bobble 4 didn't get the world on first, but there will be plenty more adventures for Bub and Bob in the future, including the upcoming Puzzle Bobble Everybubble. Merchandise for this series doesn't come to international markets very often, but Strictly Limited Games currently has a bundle of Bub and Bob plushies available to order," says Co-Optimus.
Taito has revealed that it is working on a new Bubble Bobble game to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the series. However, details are extremely sparse.
And all my childhood memories come flooding back. I don't know if I should be excited or terrified for this. LOL.
I own Bubble Bobble on NES, SMS, and Genesis I'd say its one of my favorites the music all though repetitive was great.
Bubble Bobble is a classic. I had it on the Master System and it was 200 levels of goodness. The game had such great secrets to it despite it being simple at a glance. Love that catchy tune also.
The sequel however...was great but had game ending bugs on the Master System which meant I could never finish the damn thing. That was soul destroying.
I'm always reminded of this when I hear people complain about patches. Thank god patches exist nowadays is all I can say.
I got the Arcade Archives version recently.
