Bubble Bobble
Description official description
This is an enhanced port of the original version.
The game now has 200 levels, new items like the peacock feather, blue book, and a blue crystal chalice have been added, and there are also 2 new mini-boss fights. The game also has hidden rooms which allows players to rack up bonus points and find items that are needed to see the best ending. The endings themselves have been changed to be a bit more cinematic.
Super Bubble Bobble is a mode in the original version that happened after the player beat the original set of levels and had to beat them again with the enemies being swapped around. Beating this would allow the player to see the true ending. This version of the game lacks this mode as the 200 levels are considered one playthrough.

The Good
At this age of gaming industry, only the best looking games with hyper-realistic effects can take a chance.
You might think that I'm a fool, but a few years ago, I bought a used Sega Master-System II, with thirteen game cartridges.
I've never had such machine before, the very first gaming console I've played with was a Megadrive.
I'm telling you this only to convince you that I wouldn't be sentimental about any Master-system games. And I have to say, that half of them were quite crappy.
And then I tried Bubble Bobble.
This game had the most aged look of them all, the sound was pretty simple, and the gameplay was incredibly easy.
Despite all that stuff, I remember sitting there for hours.
This game is great!
You control this little dinosaur thingy, who can blow big bubbles to capture the ghosts on each level. There are several different types of enemies, some other bubbles with different functions, bonus material, and so on.
The whole game feels like Pac-Man, or Invaders.
Remember those games! They were incredibly simple to play, with even more simple game concepts, but they really worked well!
Another nice feature here is the two player mode. The second player controls a blue dinosaur thingy, and you can take care of this ghost problem together.
The Bad
Well, it seems like, that the developers made this game especially for kids. Therefore, sometimes Its way too easy (and you just can't die. Since your'e not playing this on a coin-up arcade machine, you don't have to put money in, you just hit continue, and that's it), and because of that, you can rumble your way through several levels, very fast.
And they seem a bit repetitive after a while.
The Bottom Line
All in all, a really simple arcade game, and simply one of the best console-games, I've ever played.
