carl smith Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 (edited) Blast from the past. There were cheats on the original arcade bubble bobble version. Something like left, jump, left fire. Gives permanent speed and fast bubbles. The problem with 8 and 16 bit consoles. The lag in some of these games due to the controllers having plastic buttons where i can hear you click the crap out if it to get it to move, joysticks, game controllers, 6 button ones, even the guitar for guitar hero had it. Used to put a thin bit of cardboard between the plastic buttons and direction between the rubber to reduce travelling as the phrase was at the time. Not that i'm saying take your controller apart unless you loads. Just at the time, controllers were easy to get hold of when the consoles were selling. Not sure how hard and expensive certain ones could be now. Edited January 27 by carl smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played and watched it being played for hours on end as a kid. Had the NES port and spent even more hours clocking it again and again and again. Fantastic game.
