be part of the Microids/Taito collaboration
announced yesterday. Celebrating the
release is
this trailer, which turns the weird up to 11. The announcement floats the
following details:
First launched in 1986, Bubble Bobble is an iconic
arcade classic in which twins Bub and Bob clear stages of bullies by blowing and
bursting bubbles. Bubble Bobble 4 Friends is the latest edition in the classic
Bubble Bobble series and the first new sequel in 24 years. Join Bub and Bob as
they journey with their friends Peb and Pab on a quest to defeat their old
enemies Bonner and Baron Von Blubba in 200 stages of platform puzzle
action.
