Bubble Bobble on the Atari ST was the first game I've ever played, so of course it's Bubble Bobble.

Kinda tragic that this series spawned two fun arcade sequels that everyone forgot about so they were doomed to just rehash worse version of the original for every other sequel since the two original sequels failed. literally every "new" bubble bobble game is either a remake that is not as good or a new original game that sucks that includes the arcade game for good measure since they knew the original parts of the game are just like bad DLC of the arcade game. Rainbow Island and Parasol stars are legit fire tho

>>12140838
>Ocean
I remember their games being pretty bad, most licensed ones. Guess they had some bangers huh

>and Parasol Stars never having an arcade release was another curious thing
One of my earliest memories from the early 90s was reading in a magazine about how there was a sequel to rainbow islands called parasol stars and then not long later being in an arcade, seeing a new cabinet and immediately thinking "oh look, parasol stars." But I was young and more attracted to the street fighter cabs so I never gave it a second look.
Except of course everyone knows that there never was a parasol stars arcade, so it bugs me to this day nearly 35 years later what on earth I saw that was neither bubble bobble, nor rainbow islands and yet made me think of both...
Where I lived arcades were often full of bootlegs and I also wonder how many undumped bootlegs I played and forgot that MAME maintainers would sell their own mothers to get.
>>
I still dont understand how to actually play rainbow islands

like should I spam rainbows? make a beeline for the top of the screen? kill enemies?

Ocean like so many publishers in the 90s were just money men. They'd contract out everything to a coder, artist and musician and project manage it to completion for release, quality be damned. But every now and then that 18-21 year old self taught programmer turned out to be a legend in the making and even the artist and musician were too qualified to be taking short contract jobs for a publishing slop house.
It unfortunately meant the Ocean label didn't really count for much. It could be anything from top notch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ3ziXDDOUk
through mediocre https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8e1InZvOF8I
and down to right broken. https://youtu.be/BbMfCpD8gk4?si=SUyTbkxvq21rJVwE&t=418

but they did bring us ocean loader #4: https://youtu.be/mGerVgXNDrg?si=BbxY-BxagG0wZl_n&t=1001

I don’t believe you are this dumb.
So don’t post again or you might change that belief.

>>12150256
Race to the top to get through the levels fast, but you'll be locked into the "bad" ending.
To get the good ending you need to collect the colored gems in the right order. To spawn gems you need to drop rainbows on the enemies, not just hit them. Do it right and you'll get the bonus treasure room after the world boss. Do all the bonus rooms and you'll get to the secret worlds.
Lastly placing rainbows in special locations spawns collectibles which you'll need to do for high score runs.

>>12141018
it's awesome

>>12141078
cd32 failed because it was using the exact same hardware as an amiga 1200. with an expansion you could turn it into a proper computer. it's fuckin great but as a games console it was embarrassing.

>>12141093
amiga was awesome. remember when people rushed to buy apple macs and pcs during the 1980s for video graphics and 3d rendering? yeah, i don't remember that either.
