Well, more like a pop as Bubble Bobble for the NES (500 points) finally makes its way onto the Nintendo Wii. This classic puzzle-action game jump started my love-affair with the dinosaurs Bub and Bob, eventually leading to my one of favorite puzzle game series of all time, Bust-A-Move. f puzzles aren’t your cup of tea, then perhaps the action RPG Light Crusader for the Genesis (800 points) is more up your alley.
