    In my years of gaming, never have I seen such a perfect, polished classic as the Bust-A-Move series.

    This game is alright. I guess I prefer the old version one better. This new one's color and graphics look too colorful, especially when the firework jump out... OMG... I couldn't see the those bubbles at all!

    It has the classic Bubble Bobble game play and the new edit feature is nice. I give it an 8 because its pretty much the same as Super Bust-a-Move.

    If you happen to be a huge fan of the series, I'm certain you'll appreciate the small additions and changes. [Dec 2002, p.123]

    With graphics and a soundtrack that are identical to SBaM, and the eight returning characters unchanged by even a hair, this game is more like a re-release of SBaM than its own unique title.
  3. There are enough new features to ensure that the game is more than just a stagnant rehash, and the sheer depth of options is enough to keep the experience fresh for a long time - certainly long enough to get your money's worth and more.
