  • Excellent collection of 7 classic Bomberman games including two never before localized titles with official English translations.
  • High-quality presentation with digitized manuals, box art, music player, art galleries, and 3D cartridge and box models.
  • Features like rewind, save states, customizable region versions, and a new Boss Rush mode add value and enhance gameplay.
  • Audio issues and game speed bugs occur with VSync enabled on high refresh rate monitors, requiring manual disabling for proper play.
  • Lack of native online multiplayer; although Remote Play Together was added later, online matchmaking or integrated multiplayer is absent.
  • Some emulation inaccuracies and input lag reported, along with missing content such as certain beloved Bomberman entries and less polished gallery navigation.
  • music
    27 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in this Bomberman collection is generally praised for its quality and the inclusion of a comprehensive music player featuring soundtracks from all five main games, along with additional bonuses like original box arts and manuals. However, some users report audio issues such as sound effects missing on certain platforms, music not syncing correctly with gameplay, and problems when vsync is enabled. Overall, the soundtrack and presentation receive high marks for nostalgia and thorough archival effort, despite minor technical flaws.

    • “Besides, you get a bunch of other goodies along with the games, like scans of the manuals and even a music player!”
    • “From the menus, to the art gallery and music, this is a fantastic collection and I can't thank Konami enough for giving Bomberman another chance, from a Bomberman fan like myself who has loved the franchise for a long time, especially his 90's era.”
    • “There is a gallery with high-resolution concept art, organized per game - and also a music player complete with a dancing Bomberman, everything about the presentation is very polished and well done.”
    • “For me, no sound effects at all (Windows - Steam), not the original music.”
    • “Upon booting up Super Bomberman, you can hear the start screen song bleed into the game, not playing any of the songs for the appropriate stages.”
    • “Second is audio sync issues when vsync is on. I don’t know if it’s the emulators or what, but for some reason when you reverse these games, audio completely messes up for the NES 'bonus' games where sounds and music bug out weirdly, and the SNES games have delayed audio.”
  • story
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story varies by region, with the Japanese manual providing a more detailed narrative and enemy names, while the US manual offers a truncated version; the European manual closely matches the Japanese text. The game features a cooperative story mode supporting couch co-op play, making it a strong choice for party gaming. Additionally, the storyline extends through multiple entries into the 90s before a reboot on GameCube.

    • “The Japanese manual has a longer story for at least SB1, along with details like enemy names. The US manual truncates the plotline a bit, though interestingly, the European manual's storyline is an accurate, line-by-line translation.”
    • “The story is co-op (player 1 + player 2), making this an excellent couch co-op title as well as a great party game.”
    • “There is a surprising amount of story that continues through the 90s until the GameCube reboots.”
    • “The Japanese manual has a longer story for at least SB1 along with things like enemy names, and the US manual truncates the plotline a bit (though interestingly the European manual's storyline is an accurate, line-by-line translation).”
    • “The Japanese manual has a longer story for at least SB1 along with things like enemy names, and the US manual truncates the plotline a bit (though interestingly the European manual's storyline is an accurate, line-by-line translation).”
    • “I think that's a weird thing to point out but there is a surprising amount of story that continues up through the 90s until, I believe, the GameCube reboots.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics across the classic and newer Bomberman titles are enjoyable and true to their original styles, with some visually distinct versions adding variety. While the emulation initially suffers from audio-visual desync issues, disabling v-sync resolves this, enabling a smooth visual experience. Overall, the collection offers a nostalgic yet polished presentation with added content like box art and new modes enhancing visual appeal.

    • “I am not just happy to play these games again, but also the stuff that we never got in the West: the music, the sound, the graphics, all good fun.”
    • “It is stylistically different from Super Bomberman, so maybe that's part of why, but then you have the Neo Geo Bomberman which is an amazing cut that is aesthetically quite similar to Super Bomberman, but amped up on the art.”
    • “The emulation had a significant desync between audio and visuals initially, but turning off v-sync fixed it, resulting in a great visual experience.”
    • “The emulation is a touch off, most notably the "out of the box" experience has a significant desync between the audio and visuals. Turning off v-sync seems to fix that issue, but it requires manual adjustment until an official fix is implemented.”
    • “The graphics suffer from synchronization issues initially, causing a disjointed experience before tweaking settings such as v-sync.”
    • “The visual and audio elements are not properly synchronized at launch, leading to a poor initial impression until settings are modified.”

Fans appreciate the retro style and lasting appeal, especially given the excellent value of the collection.

    • “We've seen many newer Bomberman games and other games trying to replicate the gameplay but they never managed to create the same great look and feel as these classics.”
    • “The games are action-packed and there's a puzzle element in the gameplay.”
    • “I think the way the collection is priced is excellent when you look at the amount of Super Bomberman games you get and the fact that these are retro games with such solid feel-good gameplay, that you'll probably boot it up many times.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report that optimization is generally smooth, with no noticeable performance issues such as slowdowns or audio problems, despite some community concerns.

    • “I didn't notice the performance issues like speed ups or audio problems that other people mentioned.”
