Just for nostalgic reasons I bought the new Bubble Bobble Revolution. An excellent day, because maybe I could play it with a friend.
What a big ledown, you needed two cartridges for multiplayer mode.

In the science that you only need one casette to play Mario Kart DS eight-way multiplayer while racing in detailled 3D circuits, it really is a shame that the 2D-Flat textures from Bubble Bobble needed two casettes.
And for the rediculous new-age design and the hideous artwork you don't have to buy this game either.

The only reason you would want to buy this is to play bubble bobble on you handheld, a retrofan. I'm disappointed in the publisher for ruining the name of a pretty nice and nostalgic name!
