CS Product Synopsis
Update: August 02, 2006
«©NCSX»
Twenty one years ago, Capcom
rehashed the age old yarn about
a damsel in distress. Instead of
sending a plumber to do a man's
job however, a more traditional
hero archetype was summoned to
perform the rescue. Jumping and
throwing weapons like a banshee,
a knight in shining armor went
on a mission to save his
betrothed from a demonic
kidnapper.
The PSP version of Goku Makaimura recreates the original adventure
but with rich and vibrant
visuals along with a revamped
game engine that runs in 2D but
also features 3D sequences as
well. In the first level of the
game, the action is reminiscent
of the classic Makaimura where
the knight battles a crowd of
enemies that approach on the
ground and from the air. A
spitting Venus flytrap sends
deadly kisses through the air
and a gruesome mid-level boss
shoots squishy eye creatures.
Arthur only has a single jump at
the outset of the game but
defeating the first boss grants
him a pair of winged shoes which
add the double jump to his
repertoire. Arthur lofts even
higher when he picks up a
special power-up later in the
game...
Three game modes are playable:
Beginner, Original, and Arcade.
In Beginner and Original modes,
armor stock may be stored where
Arthur can take multiple blows
before losing his protective
suit. He starts off with two
armor stocks and can take two
hits before he's in his underoos.
Additional armors can be picked
up to upgrade his power level as
well as his level of protection.
In the Arcade Mode, one hit
demolishes his suit of armor
regardless of its power level.
Capcom Bonus D-Pad
Every copy of the Asian version of Goku Makaimura includes a bonus
D-pad which sticks over the PSP
rift-pad. The bonus pad is
packaged inside the game case.
NCS staffers have been playing
the game with the analog nub
without any problems but the
bonus d-pad is a nice little
gift for use with fighting
games.
Orders ship same-day
(M-F) if placed before 4PM EST.
