Item Description

A perfect re-creation of Bubble Bobble's frantic platforming gameplay, complete with all the secrets and fun that made the original such a classic. Compact levels are spread across the two DS screens, complete with charmingly detailed versions of the series' signature enemies. Rendered in keeping with the original's retro aesthetic, both the level layout and the characters fit the Bubble Bobble style perfectly.

Bub and Bob are now joined by newcomer Bubu, as each shoot bubbles in different hues, and can be switched in the blink of an eye with a tap of a shoulder button. A new star bubble has also been introduced which allows the player to change the color of all enemies when burst, with an ability to choose the enemies' color by shooting the star bubble with the player's selected character.

Also new is an entirely new method of obtaining a chance to continue once all lives are lost. In addition, several touch screen-based mini-games including bubblebased puzzles and simultaneous three-player platforming make Bubble Bobble Double Shot a must for any DS owner!

Can't say I'm a fan
I bought the game used at the very excited urging of two of my friends, brought it home, and was sorely disappointed. Aside from the obnoxious music, lack of save points, and confusing instructions on how to beat the bosses I'm sure that it would be a cute little puzzle game. Unfortunately as the music drove me up a wall, the premise wasn't all that interesting to me, and I didn't feel like spending hours beating all the levels in one go, I think Gamestop will be buying it back from me sometime soon.

Taito sorta gets it right again!
This one's not too bad compared to the horrors of Revolution on DS and Evolution on PSP. It's classic Bubble Bobble with a new unexciting colour changing addition, so if there's a bunch of green enemies, you'll need to swap to the green dinosaur to kill them and all that.

Graphics are decent, music's nice. There's also no save function, HARDCORE TO DA MAX.
