Bubble Bobble is a game I have a lot of pleasant memories of and nostalgia for. I never got the chance to play it on an arcade machine or even on the NES as a kid, but luckily it was ported to almost every system under the sun, including the PS1 which is where I first got my hands on it. Despite being minimal in terms of graphics, story and gameplay, it has a certain charm that I think still hasn't faded to this day which makes it extremely addicting even for people who aren't interested in retro gaming.
It's a single screen platformer which has a large emphasis on 2-player co-op play where you control a green dinosaur called Bub (and the second player controls a blue dinosaur called Bob). Your objective is to go through 100 levels to stop an evil wizard and rescue your girlfriends, to do this you must trap a variety of enemies in bubbles (using your bubble blowing abilities) and pop them in order to destroy them before moving on to the next stage.
