This is the last Bomberman with a square head for the PS1 just to note the newbies
Anyway I rather like it as short and almost plotless as it is

But..
Who's this Mach person? Why does he only appear here? What has he got to do with Bagura?

There are 8 tracks if I'm right (Bomber circuit, Bomber Coast Lake, Bakuzan Ski Course, (uurrgg hard to control especially if you are using Mach on ice) Waku Beachside, Sky Express, Dyna Mountains, Bomber Castle (It looks just like the one in Bomberman Land 2, at least the exterior) and Highway Star Road)

Tiny little note... Why does Bomber Coast Lake resembles Bomberman Land (It's even mentioned in the title) is it the prequel to Bomberman Land?

About the Japanese version everything is in Japanese except for the credits and the word Bomberman

But whatever version it is the voices are never dubbed

Anyway who is your favourite Racer? Mine are Mach>Kuro>Shiro>Hige Hige> Square Pink>Bagura

I can't really choose a favorite racer... I switched between Shiro, Mach and the hige hige bandit back when I played it. I think I used the other characters too sometimes, I can't remember actually. heh heh.

I do remember what a pain it was to unlock everything. I think I spent the greater part of a weekend doing it. I'll have to play that game again sometime. I remember enjoying it.

I think I was all Hige Hige when I played this game.

Course, I haven't played this in a long time so I don't even remember who the other characters are outside of White Bomber, Black Bomber, and Racer (or whatever his name is).

*face palm* His name is Mach. Racer is a different person from Bomberman Land 2

This is Mach (The guy in red). Mach is an antagonist

This is Racer. Racer is a protagonist. Formally known as Green Bomber

lol. I like how you're acting all uppity now. Seeing as how we just taught you Mach was an antagonist yesterday.

Reminds me of Tsukasa and her cell phone....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5beqlZLSwY

Some people haven''t played the Land games and have probably never even heard of Racer and upon reading multiple discussions perhaps figured Mach was Racer based on his appearance. So you could have went about that post a bit nicer. I don't recall them giving you a hard time about the Racer villain issue.

Though i have to say I'm a bit surprised you forgot he was Mach Soniti. You kind of let yourself get the rug pulled out beneath you on that one.

Oh well, at least you're making use of your new knowledge. I suppose it's a bit better then never learning.

Ayrton Senna



They've changed the helmet a little bit to avoid any problems, but its him all right, in his McLaren overalls.

Its an odd choice, counting Senna's fatal crash was 5 years before the game was released but he was very popular in Japan. The character must have been a tribute

Hah.. if he was they should have included Mach in more game... (Bomberman Kart has huge potentials but no... they gave us a baby in red, some chubbo in gold and Round Pink while making Shiro into a wibbling idiot and Kuro in Mr MacCool dude cliche)

Woo Tsukasa Hiiragi is a cell phone addict and yippee! Kona is playing adult games (I once did when I was 13, not those for guys. The ones for MEN)

PS Personaly if I were in Hudson I would include Mach and Racer far more often

PSS Anyone ever have a DS/PSP or Wii? Cause if you do then you might have run into the first three land series on Wikipedia and visit the official Land site through Wikipedia

PSSS .. I have my jerk moments ya know

I was partly kidding regarding the Racer name, so I'm not really offended or anything.

Like I said, I haven't touched Fantasy Race in a loooong time. Plus Mach looks like a generic racer character and we know how most Bomberman characters get their names. Give me a break.

Hooray for stripey helmets. My kid sister can't differentiate from Racer and Mach at all

PS I thought the red suit was a jump suit

You oughta get Firefox. Tells you what typos you made before you even finish a sentence. It's quite simply the best browser ever. :peace:

I'm no grammar Nazi or anything guys but that wouldn't do you much good. "Formally" is a real word so it's already spelled correctly.

Like let's say Bob was going to a fancy dance. He'd want to dress formally. Unlike how he dressed formerly, where he embarrassed himself wearing shorts and a t-shirt.

Something like that maybe... Though I'd probably use "previously" or "before" instead of formerly since they roll off the tongue easier for me.

Yeah but given the context I'm pretty sure the word that was meant to be there is formerly.

Yeah, but a spell-checker wouldn't know which word was correct in the sentence.

Yeah yeah.. anyway is Racer based on any real life Racers if Mach is based on Senna?

PS Kinda freaky how anyone can remember the infant in red that appeared in the second game but not Racer (Racer appeared on more game than Baby Red by one and had a much bigger role)
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4093827/1/The_Bomberman_SAGA_Light_Bomber_Stories Talking about this story here. Baby Red also appeared in chapter 2

Unlikely, he has a head as opposed to a helmet and the chequered flag down the side, he seems to be pretty generic
