A masterful fusion of the maze game and the single-screen platformer genres. Underrated.
>>11516089>Underratedanon it's one of the most well known games from that era
>>11516089its good but flicky and donkey kong/jr are better.

Why's he called Mappy?
>>11516109Based on slang for pigger in Japanese.
>>11516089Is Mappy-Land better? Not a huge fan of the first game>>11516103Agree with this
>>11516109He's a huge fan of kids.
Pretty amazed they pulled this off on the Atari 2600. Granted this was done with 4 decades of programming knowledge and a ROM 8 times the size of a typical Atari game back then.
This game's better.
>>11516089>excellent art direction>excellent use of color\soundi still dont like the gameplay and just cant get into it
>>11516117> Is Mappy-Land better?I feel like they were kinda stuck with a simplicity of original game's formula and didn't know where to go from there. Tried to expand it but it didn't stick. Mappy Kids is full-on platforming game, with gaijin filter included by default on top of that. You literally can't win it without english patch and there are no good ones
>>11516109>>11516152One time I watched Home Movies (the one where McGurik buys swords off TV) and one of the bit characters was named Mappy for some reason
>>11516260Oh man, imagine gutting that cocktail table to make a sick MAME cabinet
For me? It's Flicky.
>>11516089game gear port has a new mode thats toughyou time travel through new vertical levels and theres a final boss
>>11516089sex with mappy
>>11517046the fuck?
>>11516103Nope
>>11516158This is a fantastic port. Champ Games weren't screwing around when they put this one together.
>>11516216I haven't played this one in years. I'm gonna have to look this one up and play it.
>>11516109>>11516113>>11517346> マッポ> (slang, derogatory) cop (police officer)> Etymology Unknown. Attested in reference to police in criminal cant from the early 20th century, with the possibly related sense “anus” from the late 19th century.
>>11517591whatever, dude, you just wanted to post anus
>>11516089Fuck 12. Cat gang.

Short-lived game but it was fun seeing cute girl versions of the Mappy mouse and cat.
>>11517726> police loudspeakers as mouse earsI kneel before Japanese's genius.
>>11516109Because back then before they were called levels or stages individual sections of a game were called maps. So SHE had to conqueror all the maps.
>>11516527>imagine gutting this beautiful piece of history and one of the greatest arcade games ever to make it a generic emulation boxId rather not
