i love Bomberman…!!! a couple years ago i played through a bunch of Bombermans i’ll be cheap and just relink/reuse/recycle the post i made about them cuz it covers a lot of my essential Bombermanlove
im right there with u Persona on drawing lots of Bombermans next to my Sonics as a kid, and appreciating how much simpler a design Bomberman is for kid-drawing
Im also glad Mozhra brought up that Bomberman 64 has a comparably great soundtrack to Bomberman Hero it is not quite as unique as BH’s funky breakbeat but it’s still low-key one of the richest and catchiest N64 soundtracks. this one always gets me, just listen to the fuckin dynamics building it up at the beginning there
BM64 has to be the strongest single player Bomberman campaign (with unfortunately a kinda commensurately weak multiplayer for a B-man game, though i still had a blast hahahha playing it with my brother & friends as a kid. cuz Nintendo 64 didn’t need no fuckin multitap)
