TKrazyO Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Was looking for the video that was in one of those tweets and found this one that details what is added. This one is presented in a story mode style cutscene. I like the Castlevania music that started playing partway through. We'll have to see what the pets are all about. purple_beard 1 Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 Not bad matches.... I guess... Just wasn't focused enough or either I was too tired to make good decisions.... I need to play more to get my rhythm back for Bomberman... But I loved the new stage additions and characters for sure. Dracula and Top Hat is just soooooooooooo cool. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted September 19, 2018 Author Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Super Bomberman R got a big update tonight with shiny treatment for normal colors of Bombermen along with Alucard and few other new Bombermen to play with. https://www.konami.com/games/bomberman/r/us/en/news/ Pretty cool stuff to get.

Kezay Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Krazy and I have to get back to playing this at some point. I don't think I've played it since the first round of DLC characters I think so I've missed out on a lot including maps, game modes, etc. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) Apparently Google Stadia had a Battle Royale game of this and its coming to Switch https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/03/super_bomberman_r_online_is_ditching_its_stadia_exclusivity_to_launch_on_switch_and_other_consoles **** Anyone messed with this version on Stadia? How did it run compared to the original? The 64 person play Battle Royale style is very tempting.... The articles are kind of muddy on how it handled all those DLC characters and stages that came to the core title for this version though... Edited March 16, 2021 by purple_beard Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) I was unaware that Super Bomerman R Online was F2P. I guess I missed that info when it hit Stadia (I didn't really follow Stadia news. Though, did anyone? ) Anyway, I might have to check this out, though I'm not the best a Bomberman. I played Super Bomberman R's multiplayer at a couple of Nintendo events (one before the Switch launched and the other in the Summer of 2017) and despite not being that good, I still had fun. Speaking of Stadia exclusive games coming to Switch, I really hope Pac-Man: Mega Tunnel Battle comes as well (iirc, this is F2P right?).

So, basically this is just Bomberman 99, or should I say Bomberman 64? ...OH WAIT! That was already a thing. Well...You know what I mean. I guess Konmai saw the popularity of Tetris 99 and decided to adapt that concept to Bomberman, but with 64 players. Anyway...This looks like it could be pretty fun, even though I'm not the best a Bomberman. Now if only that Pac-Man BR game "Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle" from Stadia would come to other platforms. I know the Switch already has Pac-Man 99, but I feel this could be fun in its own way and exist nicely alongside Pac-Man 99. If it ever does leave Stadia, like Super Bomberman R Online, hopefully NIntendo and Bandai Namco will allow it on Switch Edited May 19, 2021 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) Some info coming from the official Super Bomberman R Online site that wasn't mentioned in the Nintendo Life article... The Double Platinum Cake outfit will be given out for free to all players for Super Bomberman R recently reaching over 2 million copies sold. 🔗https://www.konami.com/games/bomberman/online/us/en/news/ -------------------------------------------------------------- EDIT: @purple_beard I made a banner for the thread that you can use if you want. Spoiler Also, here's the trailer for the the Online BR game if you want to add it as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMuRtNADbpA 🔗https://i.imgur.com/8gPbQ7a.png Edited May 27, 2021 by alienboyva purple_beard 1 Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) Just a heads... If anyone wants to try out SBRO before it goes multiplatform, all you need is Chrome and a Google account. It's totally FREE! Just note that the player base is pretty much dead on Stadia, so you'll most likely be playing against bots. 🔗https://stadia.google.com/games/super-bomberman-r-online Also, I'm not sure if there is going to be cross-progression (I assume not until it hits consoles and season 1 with the battle pass launches), but there will cross-play. On that note... Like with Pac-Man 99, Private Matches are locked behind DLC. The Premium Pack, which includes 14 characters (see link below for included characters) and the ability to create Private Matches, will be available for $9.99. Hopefully this isn't the only way to play with friends and you can just join a friend's match like in Splatoon, but I doubt it. 🔗https://www.konami.com/games/bomberman/online/us/en/about/ Edited May 21, 2021 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment

So, we get a free character along with a free outfit? NICE! 😎 I'm actually surprised they aren't charging for this character. BTW, the Bomberman skin in Fall Guys is kinda weird... It makes Bomberman look like he's been packing on the pounds. Edited May 27, 2021 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Played two matches. It's an interesting concept using the standard Battle Royale fixtures. If you want to read the rule set, feel free to click the spoiler tag unless you want to experience it first hand. I'll just say that it ran pretty well in comparison to the original Super Bomberman R. Spoiler You start in a room with 3 other Bombers with a total of 16 rooms. Each Battle Phase is a minute long. In between phases doorways open up to the other rooms and you can move between them (not sure of the time limit on that). After the movement phase, blocks drop into the room to start the next battle phase. Each Bomber starts with an extra life so you can take a hit. There is also a Heart item which gives you a life if you had lost one before. As you go through the phases, rooms start to close off (like the circle in other Battle Royale games) and if you're stuck in a closed room you're done. It keeps going until 1 room is remaining and the last Bomber wins. Before the blocks drop in the movement phase, you can see which blocks will have power-ups. Feel free to add anything that may help explain. I did get 2nd place in my 2nd match. Only 14th in my first. I did see that the Premium Pack is $9.99 which is needed to host private lobbies. I'm interested but we'll see what happens first. alienboyva and purple_beard 1 1 Quote Link to comment
