Bubble Bobble is not only one of the most popular arcade ever created, but also a personal favourite of GamesNostalgia. This 2D cartoon action platformer designed by Fukio Mitsuji (aka MTJ) was released by Taito initially in 1986. Thanks to its huge success the game was ported to mostly all consoles and home computers.
The Amiga version, released in 1987, developed by Software Creations and published by Firebird, is considered one of the most faithful. Software Creations was a small British studio that become popular thanks to the Commodore 64 version of Bubble Bobble, a conversion which won critical acclaim and commercial success.
Bubble Bobble supports 2 players in co-op and if a single player finishes the 100th level, he is asked to come back with a friend to complete the game and see the real "happy ending", with the 2 brothers Bub and Bob transformed to humans and reunited with their girlfriends.
