Bubble Bobble is a classic. I will be getting this for sure.

I concur.

I'm flushed with memories of little cute dragons trapping baddie's in bubbles them popping them out of existance.

Careful. If it's like the Wii version, there's no save system.

And no save system is just perfect. It'll be just like back in the arcades. Hope there's a credit limiter option too, to add somewhat of a challenge...

I see Lode Runner is back to its "original" price.

During September there was a pricing mishap and Microsoft accidentally priced Lode Runner for 800msp.

When Lode Runner was initially released on XBLA. it was priced at 800 pts until MS realised the error and "fixed" it to be 1200 pts.

Love Bubble Bobble, but the Wii's Bubble Bobble Plus! has the original 100 levels and a whole bunch of new levels.

As much as it staggers me personally to say, the Wii wins this battle.

What's in Bubble Bobble Neo anyway?

Think of Bubble Bobble Neo as a remixed Bubble Bobble (much like Turtles in Time Re-Shelled). It's the original 100 levels with remixed graphics and music for 800 MS ($10).

Bubble Bobble Plus! is the original 100 levels, 100 MORE levels, and remixed graphics (though not to the degree of Neo). It goes for 500 points ($5).

The Wii is the much bigger value here. If Neo ever gets knocked down to half-price, I'll consider it, but I'll stick with Plus! for now.

Your statement is as False as your nick :P. Bubble Bobble NEO is not just the original 100 stages, it also has an arrange mode with an extra 100 stages and 4 player support. There's also a versus mode. So... it's basically Bubble Bobble Plus in HD. How do I know? I got the demo from the japanese marketplace.

Wow 800msp really has become the standard pricing.
I hope we see a NA release of Puzzle Bobble

Isn't THIS the NA version? The japanese one has been available for quite a while already.

Oh, right, I misread there. My bad. I'm pretty sure Puzzle Bobble will find its way into XBLA, sooner or later :D

I don't see why anyone would bother voting in these polls, when either Sephiroth or Link will innevitably win. Why go though the same song and dance every year, just to end up with the same result?

And yes, anti-voting like that is even more reason to ignore these polls. I can guarantee that most of the kids who voted didn't even know who Bub and Bob were.

The only character to get it worse than the Chief is Pikachu.
