Bomberman Quest is an action Role-Playing Game based on the Bomberman series that was released exclusively for the Game Boy Color in 1998. It was developed by a company called “Eleven” and published by Hudson Soft in Japan; Electro Brain in North America, and Virgin Interactive in Europe.
Sega‘s arcade game, Shadow Dancer, is the sequel to 1987’s arcade hit, Shinobi. It is the second (and final) arcade game in the Shinobi series, and was first distributed into arcades in 1989.
Pocket Bomberman was initially released for the original black and white Game Boy in 1998, and the following year it was re-worked in colour and released as a launch title for the Game Boy Color. Other than the colour enhancements, the game is pretty much identical to the OG Game Boy version, which is no bad thing as it’s an exceptional game.
Initially published in 1997 for the original black and white Game Boy, by Hudson Soft in Japan and Nintendo worldwide, Pocket Bomberman is a scrolling platform game that incorporates elements from the famous Bomberman series.

Also known as “The G.G. Shinobi“, this was the first Shinobi game released for a handheld console, initially coming out in 1991.

The Revenge of Shinobi (known in Japan as “The Super Shinobi“) is the 1989 Megadrive/Genesis sequel to the classic Sega arcade game. It once again features Joe Musashi, and takes place three years after the events of the first game. The criminal organization “Zeed” have reformed and have renamed themselves “Neo Zeed“, and they have decided to exact their revenge on the Oboro Ninja Clan by killing Joe’s master and kidnapping his bride, Naoko. So you must rescue your fiancée, and get revenge for the death of your master.
The Master System conversion of Sega‘s 1987 arcade game, Shinobi, is arguably the best of its type on the console. The developers have obviously taken care to make the game play well and look as good as possible on Sega‘s 8-bit system.
This is the US-developed port of Capcom‘s Bionic Commando. It was created by Pacific Dataworks International and published by Capcom in 1988. If you want to see the (IMHO vastly superior) British version of the game: click here.
