Genres:Adventure, Platform
Themes:Action, Fantasy, Historical, Comedy
Game modes:Single player
Story:The story follows Goemon's struggles to prevent the Peach Mountain Shoguns gang from turning Japan into a Westernized fine arts theater. The plot calls for three cinematic musical features and battles between giant robots; like other Ganbare Goemon games, it is peppered with surrealist humor and anachronisms.
The protagonist of Mystical Ninja is Goemon, a hot-blooded, kiseru-wielding ninja with blue, bushy hair based loosely on the legendary thief Ishikawa Goemon. The lord of Oedo asks him to find those who maimed Oedo Castle. Goemon lives in Oedo Town and is friends with Ebisumaru, a strange, gluttonous fat man who wears a blue bandana. Ebisumaru is defined as lazy and perverted. Their kunai-throwing friend Sasuke is a mechanical ninja (made by the Wise Man of Iga) who enjoys hot baths and Japanese tea. Rounding out the heroes is Yae, a fierce sword-wielding kunoichi, who happens upon Goemon's band in Zazen Town. The villains of the game hail from the organization Peach Mountain Shoguns and include a gang of four "weirdos" led by Spring Breeze Dancin' (Danshin Harukaze) and Kitty Lily (Margaret Ranko). They intend to transform Japan into a stage for their talents.Show more

This game has been a favorite of mine since the day I first played it when I was a kid. It's an N64 title that is often overlooked when compared to its high profile competition, but thankfully it left an impression on many people who still remember it. It is an early 3D title and accomplished the format quite well, all things considered; it doesn't have quite the same masterful design as Zelda, or Mario, but it has a certain panache that makes it very endearing, and highly playable. It's also unabashedly Japanese, funny, and has a stellar soundtrack.
This game deserves to be on GOG because it's not available anywhere else. Even in its native home of Japan, Ganbare Goemon is not exactly relevant anymore. The N64 emulation is shoddy which makes it not ideal, and Nintendo never made a newer port of it. This game is way too good to be left in obscurity, and it could really use a once-over for controller support and OS compatibility. GOG is the perfect home for it.

Gex: Enter the Gecko"Is it just me, or am I engulfed in flames?" is one of the many one-liners uttered by Gex, a wise cracking gecko who should check himself into television rehab; he's addicted to it. After saving the Television Realm from the evil Rez in his first adventure, the gecko was ready to kick back, relax, and watch a little television. Little did he know his adventure was just beginning.
One day, two secret agent goons showed up at Gex's doorstep. They inform him that Rez is back and looking for vengeance; the evil monster is planning to destroy the Television Realm once more...and possibly the world. When Gex tells them that he's retired and doesn't care, one of the goons hits the gecko on the head and takes him to a secluded place.
When Gex comes to, the mystery men plead with the gecko to take the cash and help destroy Rez for good...or at least make him disappear. With that incentive (the cash), the wise cracking lizard slips into his special agent suit and plunges headfirst into the Television Realm. Watch out, Rez -- Gex is back!Action Comedy
