| NES Game - The Nintendo Entertainment System, also known as the NES in North America, Europe and Australia or Famicom, short for family computer, across most Asian countries is the best selling console of its time. Nintendo was the first gaming company to provide third party licensing that required a game development company to pay a fee to get a development kit and have their game officially licensed by Nintendo. The most important aspect of this is that it required developers to submit their games to be reviewed by Nintendo's Quality Assurance department. However, you can purchased unlicensed NES games such as Road Runner, Dudes with Attitude, RBI Baseball 2, Krazy Kreatures, Fantasy Zone, Skull & Crossbones and Klax among many others. This 8-bit gaming console brings back fond memories to many of us age 20 or older and boasts a huge collection of fantastic games such as Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Mega Man, Castlevania, Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior and many other franchises that are still popular today. |

Bomberman for the Nintendo Entertainment System is definantly one of the more influential titles ever released, given that it spawned a massive series including games on almost, if not every system since 1983 when it was originally released in Japan. In the game, you are a robot who is trying to kill all of the security guards (who look like ballons and rain drops) in the underground bomb factory so you can escape. Once you defeat all of the enemies, you have to blow up random bricks until you find the exit, which gets really boring and stressful when you being to run low on time and still haven't found the exit. It's pretty much the same thing after every level (or at least until level 3, which is the farthest I ever bothered getting), but it's a fun little game.
Presentation - 6.5. The box art is pretty cool with some robot guy running out of an explosion, but it's nothing amazing or epic or anything.
Graphics - 7.5. The graphics aren't anything amazing, but for NES standards, they're not bad either. Pretty average for the 8-bit era.
Sound - 7. The music is REALLY repetative and REALLY monontonous. It gets stuck in your head and haunts your conciousness like a bad image. The sounds are all rather plain and unremarkable, but not terrible.
Gameplay - 8. The gameplay's not bad, and pretty fun at first. It just starts to get old pretty quickly. It's pretty much just more bricks and more enemies from level to level.
Lasting Appeal - 8. Bomberman is not one of those game you'll play over and over again, like Mario or Metroid, but it's not one of those games that will haunt you to your grave, like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Overall Score - 7.7
