The GameCube version was developed by Amusement Vision (an internal Sega dev team) and first came out in 2001. And it was a smash hit!

Bomberman Generation (Battle Mode), GameCube
Here’s a separate set of grabs of Bomberman Generation Battle Mode for the GameCube.

Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure, Megadrive/Genesis
Developed and published for the Megadrive/Genesis by Interplay Productions in 1994, Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure is a humorous platform game starring a ‘superhero’ whose abilities are: burping, farting, and flicking ‘boogers’ at enemies to kill them… And, while that may sound puerile and stupid to some, this is actually a game with high production values and decent gameplay backing it up.
