Super Bomberman Collection Reviews
Super Bomberman Collection is almost the definitive compilation of the character. Undoubtedly, most of the best games in the series are present, and the visual adaptations and inclusion of modern features, such as saving and rewinding, make everything even more accessible and fun. However, these are still short and relatively simple games from a franchise that may not be as popular or appealing to those unfamiliar with the character back in the day. Each title should take between one or two hours to complete, but we're talking about a possible 5 to 10 hours of gameplay to beat everything, not counting the NES titles, the Boss Rush mode, and the multiplayer, which remains as fun as ever.

With modern features that respect the current player, but without altering the classic essence, the collection proves that Bomberman's simple, strategic, and chaotic formula remains extremely fun.

Super Bomberman Collection compiles an era that portrays the historical evolution of Bomberman and ultimately defined a gameplay style that would leave its mark: the battle royale. Although the graphical quality varies across the campaigns of the Super Bomberman iterations, we see how the multiplayer took shape until the final installment, incorporating each and every element introduced. We would have loved to see a general cross-platform lobby for the online experience with other users, but sadly, this isn't possible.

The extra content and historical touches are just as impressive. None of it feels tacked on, and every new addition feels like a core part of the overall experience. Konami bringing Super Bomberman back like this is a win, and it’s hard not to be happy about it, even as someone who wasn't very familiar with the series.
While it lacks multiplayer options and missed adding some core titles from the franchise that would’ve made it the perfect pickup for nostalgic fans, Super Bomberman Collection is still well worth checking out.
The Super Bomberman Collection is a wonderful bundle of games, whether you were a Bomberman kid or want to try something new.
Super Bomberman Collection is an all-around fantastic bundle of numerous classic Bomberman games. Fans and newcomers alike will find plenty to enjoy in this, and the series' evolution throughout the Super Nintendo era is something to behold. Hopefully, later Bomberman games receive similar treatment, as I’d love to give the 3D-era games a go.
The game Super Bomberman Collection does well because it knows what it's trying to do. This is not an attempt to bring Bomberman up to date or make it new. Instead, it honors, protects, and puts into context a key period in the franchise's history.
Super Bomberman Collection may only cover a very specific slice of the franchise’s more than forty-game history, but it works perfectly as a reminder of why Bomberman became such a beloved series in the first place. Every single title included here is a blast to play, no pun intended. The visuals are charming, the music os fantastic, and the core gameplay loop is just THAT good.
