I don't know the full history of bubble bobble, but I know it was the
generation of games along with super mario which had a rather cutesy theme,
but rock solid design and gameplay.
Rainbow islands was probably my least favourite of the original games, but
parasol stars I had great fun with, particularly double player.
Indeed playing original bubble bobble now on the gba, a version which also
includes the ability to go to the last level you've got up to and thus
continue a saved game, I'm rather shocked at the uba difficulty of the
thing! I can make it to level 12 or so in one sitting, and playing from
restart points I've got to about stage 70 (the game does have a hundred
levels), but Good god! it's hard!
I'm only sorry they never re released parasol stars for any of the consoles
I currently own, sinse that was an awsome game indeed!
Beware the grue!
Dark.
