If you still play the Game Boy regularly, then Samurai Shodown is a must-have title. To save on space, the characters are rendered in a super-deformed Japanese style that looks great. Not a lot of detail, but enough to understand what's going on. All of the characters are here, including Earthquake (missing from the Genesis) and three new secret characters that you can play as: Amakusa, the Courier and the Judge.

A very good portable version of the Neo Geo arcade smash! Almost everything is here - the fighters, the moves and the look. This one seemed a lot more fun to play on the Super Game Boy than on the small screen, but nonetheless, fans of the game who are "on the go" will not be disappointed with this one.

On-the-go fight fans who have 20-20 vision may enjoy this cutesy Romper Room edition of everyone's favorite weapon fighter. However, it's hard to justify spending money on this game when you could save up for the Genesis version instead.
