Biomotor Unitron

I had no idea what a big game this was to SNK and NGPC fans. After watching some game play, I almost completely skipped over this title. I happen to bring it up to a Neo fan and I might as well have asked if he'd ever heard of Mario. After that reaction, I've changed my mind and will be trying this out.

Anyone else heard of this game, I can't be the only person with my head in the sand!

Here's hoping its good

@targetrasp Biomotor Unitron... is a game that took a lot of my time in the past and it was a lot of fun. I'm surprised there haven't been more comments on it. I'm a bit surprised that @retro junkie didn't have a comment lol

It was definitely a unique take on crafting a "fighting Robot" with different materials...etc. It was somewhat like leveling up a Pokemon and fighting "trainers..." crossed with unique aspects in crafting and making more powerful arms and weapons.

I'm surprised more haven't commented on this one!

@BLUEVOODU this is one of the few games that I do not have for my Neo Geo pocket. There is the first and the second releases. The UK version would be the one to get. The game is very rare to find. But the Japanese version is readily available. I can only wish.

It might be one of those games in which I set with my phone in hand with a translator and play the Japanese version. I have done that before with the Wonderswan handheld and the Nintendo 64.

lol how did the translator work for you on those other games, @retro junkie ? You have patience for sure. Samurai Shodown RPG... was one game I wanted to play, but just didn't have the patience. I don't think they ever came out with a English translation... they might have by now though.

This game is definitely worth a play, I think you would like it @retro junkie Now that it's on the Switch... you can just do that

If you do... you need to post up your thoughts!

@BLUEVOODU i used the phone's camera and google translate to play Final Fantasy on my Wonderswan and compared it to the game on the Gameboy Advance FF. The Gameboy Advance game was missing some of the story. You just hold it over the dialogue and the phone translates. It worked for a N64 game I played one time too.

lol @retro junkie that's awesome.

@targetrasp - alright... did you try it? What are your thoughts?

It was a great game!

BLUEVOODU · November 19, 2023, 06:37:37 PM

@targetrasp - you're killing me here. Did you play it?

@retro junkie - will this game ever be on your list?

retro junkie · November 19, 2023, 08:09:44 PM

@BLUEVOODU to be honest, I have forgotten about this game. It is still a bit pricey even for the Japanese version, which is the best option. Not sure when, but maybe it will be in my sights some day.
(right now I am playing a bullet hell shooter on the NES)
