TwinBee!!!
03. May 2007 at 04:59
 
...

I've been on a BIG Twinbee kick over the last several weeks, and have gotten lots of japanese Twinbee games, and I'm enjoying them so much! And I got two more on the way! Twinbee (blue ship) and his companions Winbee (pink ship) and Gwinbee (green ship) are so FRIGGIN' CUTE! XD And Winbee's pilot "Pastel" and Gwinbee's pilot "Mint" are also very kawaii. You could probably tell which pilot is which in the picture. Anyway, basically, right now, anything Twinbee is the [bubble lead] for me. And I love Twinbee's voice!!!! Even though I can't understand ANYTHING that comes out of his mouth. America's first introduction to Twinbee was in 1987 when the second Twinbee game was released in North America under the name "Stinger", and the second (and most recent) exposure to North America the series has gotten was where the game was included on the Konami Arcade Classics Collection for the Nintendo DS, where it was called Rainbow Bell (I don't know why they just couldn't call it Twinbee). Anyway, these are the Twinbee games I currently own!:

Twinbee (Famicom)*
Stinger (NES)
Twinbee 3 (Famicom)
Twinbee Da!! (Game Boy)
Pop'n Twinbee (Super Famicom)
Twinbee Rainbow Bell Adventure (Super Famicom)
Twinbee Taisen Puzzle Dama (PlayStation One)*
Twinbee Deluxe Pack (Sega Saturn)
Mini Famicom No. 19 - Twinbee (Game Boy Advance)
Twinbee Portable (PSP)

The ones with the asterik are ones I haven't recieved yet. Anyway, if you see Twinbee Portable for PSP anywhere on ebay, I highly recommend it! Plus you don't need to buy any extra [bubble lead] to play it, because the PSP isn't region protected. Cheesy

A Twinbee anime OVA called "Twinbee Paradise" was also made, and the theme song to it kicks so much ass. I'm surprised there was never any Twinbee toyline (Or at least none I know of!)

MR113, if you enjoy DDR check out Extreme 2 for the PS2, or Extreme in the arcade. there's a remix track on there. At least download the song for your mp3 player, it's a great thumpin' remix. It's called "TwinBee (Generation X)" by Final Offset/Hideaki Sugaya

There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea is asleep and the rivers dream; people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, and somewhere else the tea is getting cold. Come on, Ace, we've got work to do.

Yeah, I played the first DDR Extreme at an arcade a couple weeks back. I was surprised to see it on there, and when I saw it, I went into "Super Over The Top" excited mode. But I didn't recognize it, because I don't remember hearing it in a Twinbee game.
