Why was this never ported?

>Widely considered the best in the series
>Releases Bomberman World, Bomberman Hero, Bomberman Party Edition and Bomberman Online in rapid succession instead
If there's one thing Hudson did horribly wrong, it was milking this franchise dry and ensuring their developers got burned out of it by the end. You could literally erase half of these games from existence and nothing of value would be lost. They really needed to focus on a few titles per generation, or even one game per-console, but make them all higher quality and more consistent.

    Bomberman 64 is the only good Bomberman and I'm not even a tendie. I'd even go further and say they could nuke every other Bomberman. I have no idea why this is even series

      This. The N64 games were the most interesting bomberman games everything else is just the same exact game.

      the funny thing is most hardcore bomberman fans consider the N64 games the weakest in the series. 3d adds nothing to gameplay except tedium. saturn bomberman, super 2 4 5 and '94 pc engine are the holy grail. have you played these? if not youre opinion isnt exactly worth listening to.

      Bomberman is fricking boring and every game is the same thing. It’s cute or whatever but Bomberman wasn’t going to save Saturn.

      Wrong one, Bomberman Hero on N64 is the only good Bomberman game by virtue of not being an Bomberman game and it has an amazing DnB soundtrack that’s better than the game itself. It’s so good Konami officially pressed it to vinyl (then again they fricking press anything to vinyl now).

        Take your nostalgia for 5th gen and shove it. Early 3D games are all objectively terrible, but the peak of 2D was great.

        Also electronic music sucks it's gay club music.

          If you played one Bomberman you played them all. At least Bomberman Hero tried to evolve the character.

          >i like music not games
          why should anyone give a shit about your opinion.

          I do like games, I just said I like Bomberman Hero.

            It's not about characters. It's about strategic movement and bombing. Literally who other than the biggest autist in the world would care about story or "character" in a Bomberman game?

              If you played one Puyo you played them all.
              If you played one Columns you played them all.

              There were a billion versions of Bomberman people could play, this didn’t get ported to the dying Saturn because it wouldn’t have sold. Bomberman Hero barely has a story too, but at least it wasn’t just Bomberman again.

                There's more value in being the best version of a tried and true formula than being "the spesthul one cuz N64 nostalgia muh early 3d gimmickry"

                Every argument you make just reeks of "i'm a casual"

                You were definitely born after the year 2000. Also, you can make the EXACT same arguement for almost any video game ever made. Including Dark Souls (OMG), Call of Duty (NO WAY), and even Metroidvanias (NOOOOOO!!)

                Problem with these games is that in order to keep them interesting they have to ramp up the gimmicks, which are inevitably not fun. Looking at Bust-a-Move specifically. Bomberman gets away with it because it’s more action based.

    bomberman and momotaro printed easy money. there was no other reason. the games had huge sales on sfc and ps1. this would supplant the company to create higher density projects like tengai makyou and contract out games like bulk slash and galaxy yuna.

      Nah, it's the weakest thing about the game. Generic elevator music.

        This is what happens to zoomers who get their brains fried after listening to Billie Eilish and Ed Sheeran. They no longer recognize real music.

    The most fun thing about Bomberman is the item that actually lets you throw them. Watching the bombs bounce off of a line of blocks all the way to the other side of the arena to catch an opponent is enjoyable.
    That said, once you play one game you're played them all so just pick the one you grew up with and move on. Fantasy Race is also based.

    Sure, whatever, but the platformer style Pocket Bomberman on Game Boy Color is an absolute overlooked gem. I wish they made more 2D platformers within the series.
