Talking about anything but Neutopia II, New Adventure Island, Mega Bomberman (or its superior, not retarded twin step-cousin-in-law, Bomberman '94), Soldier Blade, Felix the Cat and Hagane makes you wrong.
Hagane is the best non-Hudson-like Hudson game ever. Bomberman '94 is the best Bomberman. New Adventure Island is the best Adventure Island. Soldier Blade is a great shmup. Felix the Cat is cute and fun.

Best shmup from Hudson and from the best soundtracks I've ever heard in a shmup.

So I've always wondered, what the hell is Bomberman anyway? Like is he a guy with a square helmet or a robot or what.

>> No.484282

Well, Saturn Bomberman is the closest thing we'll ever get, since you can play as Milon, Takahashi, Bonk and a bunch of other characters.

It's also much better than yet another MP-wannabe.

From the most enjoyable parody shmups along with Parodius, Space Invaders '95 and Gunbare The Game Paradise. Such a shame we don't see shmups like that today. '90s was the best period for this kind of videogames.

>>I do wish they're come up with a new one, because Otomedius was seriously terrible.
You can say that again! Otomedius was a huge letdown for me. I expected a Parodius-style game with more emphasis on moe with the awesome character design from the creator of Keroro Gunsou (which he also worked in the past with the character design of a Twinbee game). Instead we got a generic, soulles shmup with broken, unfair AI (even with the unlimited continues resuming from the point you lost, it's still annoying as hell).

Yep. And there aren't any announced games from Hudson's IPs at all. Bomberman is finished. Bonk is finished. Bomberman was one of the first characters I could draw with no problem alongside Pac-Man and Kirby.

Actually Konami made a Bomberman game for smartphones after absorbing Hudson. But that's all.

Why do you do that Konami? Even SquareEnix doesn't do shit like that with Taito.

I recently noticed that the US release of Bomberman actually used the cover art and even character from Bomber King, which was released as Robo Warrior in the West.

Crazy shit huh? Bomber King had a pretty bitching first level theme.
