Released in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the hugely influential Nintendo Entertainment System console (which first appeared in Japan as the Famicom, in 1984), the "Classic NES Series" of Game Boy Advance cartridges present accurate versions of original NES games, for play on the handheld.
The first title in the popular series, Bomberman puts players in control of the title character as he walks around a playfield, bombing enemies while trying to find the level exit. Each exit is hidden under one of 40 blocks. As the game progresses, enemies become more challenging, but bombs are unlimited and power-ups, such as timed bombs, a fireproof vest, and the ability to walk through blocks, begin appearing to help even the odds.
