Super Bomberman R |OT| Buggler? I Hardly Know Her!
- Thread starter Camjo-Z
- Start date
Played the first 2 worlds with my brother, the control felt weird all along, even more on boss battles, I guess I'm too used to Super Bomberman SNES.
Let's talk about those boss battle, my god they are chaotic when playing with someone else, not saying it's bad and had some laughs, especially on the second boss.

I picked this up purely because people rave about Bomberman localplayer and I needed something I can play with friends for longer than Snipperclips. Assuming I'm not too fussed that I paid $50 for it, is consensus that just as a game its alright?

People seem to really like the multi but think for the price it isn't quite a complete enough package. Since my Wii U is getting packed up I'm hoping it and SnipperClips are good enough for a few game nights before MK8 Deluxe comes out.

How is the co-op campaign compared to, say, Super Bomberman 2?
As a single player experience the Bomberman series has always been "okay". If you can get 4 people together there are few experiences that are as chaotic and fun as Bomberman, and this game is no exception. It's not the best in the series but it's definitely a riot of a time if things get just right. Right now I'm spending most of my time online hoping for good lobbies and I've had decent luck so far. Whenever things get going it's great.

Is there a way to "center" the camera when playing single player like it is in the battle mode instead of it being offset?
Didn't bother with it yesterday since there were like two reviews in English, but I've now added all of the reviews from Metacritic so far.

They better patch this half second input delay when playing online. I didn't pay much for this game with trade credit flips but I'm really unhappy with how the online play feels.

Isn't there input delay in local mode too? I don't have my game yet but I'm worried about the shape of the overall package.

Good to see they've acknowledge the problem. I just played a few really good, lag free matches and it just didn't feel as tight as the single player does. Definitely playable, but could be more responsive. I've really enjoyed what I've played of the game so far and really hope this issue is fixed quickly.
Haven't played any local multiplayer yet, but single player feels just fine and I don't feel any input lag.
That's good to hear.
It's a fun game, but it definitely needs those issues fixed.

Cool, good to know. Hopefully they get that fix out quick. I'll be hopping on the bomberman train when I get my switch in the mail.

The delay is making it super tough to enjoy but I am charmed as fuck by those animated cutscenes. Utter nonsense, I love it.
I'll wait for the patch before putting any more time into it, though.

Curious, what is disappointing? Picked it up but haven't had a chance to play it yet.

They were getting roasted in the japan Amazon reviews. Leave some us negative reviews too, guys. Being a two star product on amazon is sure to give this attention.
That's good to hear.

Because it was a game made on a tight budget quickly using unity.
I did a little bit of local multiplayer and it didn't feel like there was lag.
After putting more time in it, it definitely shouldn't have been $50, but it's pretty fine as far as bomberman goes.
Something I hadn't really thought about but makes sense.
I have to say I really do enjoy the game so far. Story in a game like this isn't something I care about but the cut scenes are really well done. It's the only game I picked up so I'll probably get through it quickly and sell it before the price bottoms out and grab Zelda.
I played a good bit of co-op campaign with a friend today, no regret, the game is awesome so far.
I think it's one of the very rare games I'd recommend using TruMotion, depending on the TV (LG B6 OLED here), since it's locked at 30 it gives it a nice feeling of 60fps.
Didn't try multi yet as I'm deep into Zelda.

Feels great to play Bomberman again. Can't wait for the eventual multiplayer shenanigans to ensue.

Sorry to quote myself....can anyone help me out on this?
Was never confirmed for download play so I'd say you are out of luck. You can do 4 players on table top mode or 8 players on the TV though.Guys, can I play this game with a single cart on two Switches? ( like downloadplay ).

Bomberman on the GC was one of my favorite multiplayer games with my brother and sisters.. they're all getting the switch "for their kids" and made sure to get the game too
£39.99 at TheGameCllection or £35 at Argos if you buy bundled with a switch. It'll drop soon enough.
How are the bots in local multiplayer? Probably not buying a second pair of joycons until Mario kart

I'm having fun with this game. It does feel a little off though.
It feels cheap, the core game is as good as ever but it's not as satisfying as I hoped. Now I played 3P with my girls, I'll be more positive after an 8P session with my friends.
Fair enough, not exactly the greatest way to revive a classic franchise after a long hiatus either way. Bomberman deserves better is all I'm saying.
Those amazon reviews must've lit a fire under their asses.

I knew about all the problems before picking it up and figured it'd still be worth it to me because I love Bomberman and wanted some launch games that weren't Zelda, but I gotta say from the 10-15 minutes I spent with this game, feels like a total mess. Definitely a shame.
At first I was a bit confused that there was no infinite time limit option in multiplayer, but I've figured out why that is. There are some stages with multiple levels, and you need to hit switches to activate them. So if a couple of people get elevated to the higher level, and everyone on the lower level is dead (so the switches can't be activated to get the higher level back down), the people on the higher level are effectively stuck with no way to get down, and if they're separated from each other, a stalemate occurs. I've been in a couple of online matches where they get stuck and we've had to wait for the timer to run out/instadeath blocks to start falling. If there was no time limit, you'd be stuck forever.
