Arkanoid (Nintendo, 1987)

First off, the guy above me who can't spell boredom obviously isn't intelligent enough to appreciate the fun factor of this game! The NES take on the Atari game Breakout is an absolute blast! Throw in the original Arkanoid controller and you've got hours of fun. Great game, A+

1 oustanding game. I played this for hours as a kid. The object of the game is simple but very fun.Knock out the blocks with your ball and move on to the next level. Do not let the ball get by you or you die! There are also capsules that fall for you to collect. They will help by turning your player into a laser or extending your players length or slowing the ball down or making you able to catch the ball, ETC. One of my favorite games for the NES.

We have always loved this game. We sold our game set and all the games many years ago and recently found the game system and decided to buy it. We need to find all the games that we enjoyed playing so much back then. Arkanoid was one of our fav's! Thanks!

Great game, clean game, classic game. Arkanoid for the NES is a must have for anyone who played this game in the arcades along with frogger. If you know what I am talking about there is an endless amount of nostalgic entertainment to wrought.

Great game. If you are a fan of classic Nintendo games, then you will certainly like this one.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I owned this NES cartridge back in the eighties, but had it stolen from me, along with the all-important dial controller. When I say "all-important", I mean it. Even though this game can be played with the standard Nintendo game pad, I do not recommend it if you want to enjoy it and actually progress to higher levels. The dial controller (sometimes referred to as "Vaus controller") I speak of is somewhat rare and can commonly be found on separate Ebay auctions for under $30. It plugs into the second controller port on the NES console. Buy it, buy it, buy it! You will only have $40-$50 invested total. This is still cheaper than the $54.99 I remember paying retail for the complete package back in the 1980's. One more thing about the Arkanoid Vaus controller: I am told it will also function great with another Taito NES game called "Chase HQ" to allow you to steer the car. NES Arkanoid is everything Atari's Break Out should have been. My only qualm is that it progresses from easy to difficult levels relatively quickly. By level four or five of this game the pace can become frenetic fast. My memories from the eighties are that I probably never got past level seven. Even with that, this game is well worth the price. The power-up pills, changing block layouts, and occasional teleport doors keep Arkanoid both interesting and challenging. If you can get a copy for under $15, by all means do so. It is one of the better titles ever released for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

This is a great controller to have if you like the game. Otherwise it is no good as it dose not work with any other game. ( That I have found anyways) This is a must have item for any nintendo collector.

The purchased game worked and I did not have any problems. I am pleased with the good business I got from you. Thank you

the product received looks and functions great!! i had a good experience with the purchase and arrival for this item.
