Bubble Bobble is one of my favorite arcade games for sure. It's one of the only games I ever played actively with my sister while we were growing up. We played it many, many nights on the Amiga 1000 - but never beat it. I did finally beat it with MAME, though, since you could just keep "inserting credits" and weren't limited like you were in the Amiga version. We tried so hard! If we lost a man before level 13 we'd start it over, for instance.
I never liked Rainbow Islands or whatever it was, and never really got into puzzle bobble. Only the original game really hooked me. What an original concept!
Not to be confused with "Bubble Ghost," a game I never cared for. Though I did love Wizball.
