A Commodore 64 version was in the works but never released as the freelance developer’s wife got drunk and destroyed all the disks – there’s a fact to dazzle your gaming mates with! Although Bubble Bobble has been ported to many consoles, the last time you could buy Parasol Stars was in 1991 so it’s a true rarity and, like the other two games in the series, arcade perfection. Never released in arcades, this game was made specifically for the PC Engine, before being ported to the Amiga and Atari ST. The console also contains a port of the rarest game from the Bubble Bobble trilogy: Parasol Stars. Other stand-outs include Splatterhouse, Soldier Blade, Bonk’s Revenge, and a couple of incarnations of Bomberman. As one of the first games to come on compact disc, it benefits from voice overs and cut scenes.

The Japanese version of Ghouls ‘N Ghosts, Daimakaimura, is another near-perfect conversion, and Castlevania fans will be pleased to see Akumajō Dracula X: Chi No Rondo, aka Castlevania: Rondo Of Blood, the prequel to Symphony Of The Night.

Click here to see a full list of the games included Another oddity is the fabulous Chō Aniki which is side scrolling shooter featuring heavily muscled men thrusting and groaning in a bizarre mix of shooting and soft porn. Lords Of Thunder is a heavy metal inspired shooter and it’s joined by Star Soldier, Dragon Spirit, Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire, and Star Parodier, a shoot ’em up that replaces spaceships with teddy bears and toy trains, and lasers with compact discs. The two daddies of the shoot ’em up genre, Gradius (also known as Nemesis in the UK) and R-Type are the stand outs, both arcade perfect with Gradius including an extra level not found in the coin-op as well as additional bonus stages. It’s packed with genuine classics, all faithfully reproduced to near coin-op perfection, and in some cases, even better than their money guzzling counterparts. The games that are preloaded on the console cover a wide range of genres including side-scrolling beat ’em ups, RPGs, and puzzle games, but this is really the mini console for shoot ’em up fans. Although the console has been shrunk down in size, the controller is an exact replica and fits nicely in you hand, boasting a D-pad for directional control and two action buttons, both of which come with very welcome auto-rapid fire switches. Each game has a quick save feature and you also have the option of various display modes including one with scan lines for retro perfectionists.
