And since not too many people adapted the Xbox at launch

Star Wars: Obi Wan for the OG Xbox was :ahh:
I'm not a star wars geek by any stretch of the imagination, but that game was the shyt

Then there are all the clones that are just normal games on any cellphone TODAY

Every cellphone store will have a bubble bobble ripoff in its "top games"

HBO Boxing - Face Buttons were mapped out in where each one represented a different punch. A little too complicated for people, but I thought it was good..

Breh that game was dope. I remember going to school telling folks about it and them thanking I was lie-in cause I told them that Roy Jones was in it lol

that may be, i dont play mobile games so i wouldnt know.

on more traditional gaming platforms, bubble bobble's relevance seems to have died in the late 1990s with bad games and even abandoning the name and characters (rainbow islands).

I'm not claiming to be an expert on this game, but in the Wiki it says that the first sequel was titled...

Rainbow Island: The Bubble Bobble 2 Story (1987) :manny:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Islands:_The_Story_of_Bubble_Bobble_2

And I guess we all sort of didn't really care when the series was rereleased under the Bubble Bobble name for Xbox Live arcade, Bubble Bobble Neo :ufdup:

Would you like to buy it right now?

BUT, the game is STILL $10 which is probably why nobody is even remotely thinking about it in 2014

on handheld they switched exclusively to rainbow islands and changed the characters, no more dragons. that was the last actual new game (no remake)

this franchise has been a zombie for almost 20 years

the last non-remake/anthology game was a PSP game with sombrero wearing humans instead of dragons and no mention of bubble bobble on the box

Bubble Bobble Neo is not the same game as Bubble Bobble or Bubble Bobble 2
You know, just like how the movie Dredd isn't anything like the Sylvester Stallone version of Dredd
This dragons gone stuff. Didn't realize the dragons was such a big deal :manny:
