Super Bomberman is a series of Bomberman games released in the early-to-mid 90s for the Super Famicom/NES. The first two games were released internationally, the third was released in Japan and Europe, and the fourth and fifth games were Japan-exclusive.The games make use of the classic gameplay formula: the stages are laid out in a grid pattern with enemies and destructible blocks. When all of the enemies have been defeated, the exit will open and the player can progress to the next stage. Some games instead require you to activate/destroy switches to open the exit. Super Bomberman 5 also gives several branching paths, and it is possible to reach the (good) ending without seeing 3/4s of the game.The first Super Bomberman was one of the first SNES games to allow four-player multiplayer, which required the use of a Multitap device. It was largely through these games that Bomberman became synonymous with frenetic multiplayer. The third through fifth games upped this to five players.In 2017, the series finally saw its first new entry in two decades, Super Bomberman R for the Nintendo Switch. The following year, the game was ported to Steam, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Super Bomberman R Online, a free-to-play rerelease with a revamped Battle Royale Game-esque online mode and new characters and outfits, was released on September 2020 as a timed exclusive for Google Stadia and shut down on December 2022.In June 27, 2022, a sequel to Super Bomberman R was announced. Super Bomberman R2 expands the classic Bomberman-style gameplay with new additions like "Castle" mode, where one player defends their castle from 16 other players, and a new exploration mode and the return of the Battle Royale mode from Super Bomberman R Online. It was officially released on September 13, 2023.Games in this series are: Super Bomberman (1993) Super Bomberman 2 (1994) Super Bomberman 3 (1995) - No US release Super Bomberman 4 (1996) - Japan only Super Bomberman 5 (1997) - Japan only Super Bomberman R (2017) Super Bomberman R Online (2020) Super Bomberman R 2 (2023) | |

Law of Chromatic Superiority | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_1f7b2d59 | comment |
Law of Chromatic Superiority: The opponents in the arena stage of 1 all look identical other than their color, though they get progressively tougher. The first four take just one hit to defeat. The next three take two hits and have better AI. The golden-colored boss comes with many more power-ups, including maximum range and bomb kick, and takes five hits. | |

No Plot? No Problem! | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_1fffccf7 | comment |
No Plot? No Problem!: The first five SNES and Super Famicom titles had a "gameplay first, story last" mindset to them as in most cases, the story is either locked away in a physical instruction manual or is only seen as 2 cutscenes, one at the start, and the other at the end of the game. It took until Super Bomberman R, a game that released a whole 21 years after Super Bomberman 5, for the series to finally subvert this in-game and start treating worldbuilding and characterization as a major part of the game. | |

Mythology Gag: Super Bomberman R's unlockable cross-over characters have specific quirks to them that reference their own series, but Vic Viper Bomber's rocket helmet makes him out to be a Good Counterpart to Sirius, who had armor that let him turn into a jet. Natives of Planet Castlevania have a specific vocal filter that emulates the "empty hall" echoing effect of spoken dialogue in Symphony of the Night | |

| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_295087bf | comment |
Non-Indicative Name: Emperor Terrorin, the villain of Super Bomberman 5, who is the leader for no empire to speak of, save for the Criminal Bombers that he breaks out. One can only assume that he seeks to establish an empire, or his empire is time itself (at least in his own mind). Super Bomberman R Online is not an Updated Re-release of Super Bomberman R despite having "Super Bomberman R" in the name. It's a standalone free-to-play online game that uses the gameplay and (most of the) characters from Super Bomberman R. | |

Cursed with Awesome | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_309b8806 | comment |
Cursed with Awesome: The 2nd phase of the final boss in Super Bomberman has the two villains in a hovering vehicle tossing out Skull items all over the stage. Their intent is for you to accidentally collect them and kill yourself because the Skulls' effects caused you to mess up while fighting the boss. However, getting a Skull does give you a hefty amount of points, so if you can deal with their effects, you can collect them to gain enough points for some extra lives. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: White Bomber in Online. He is essentially the "vanilla" character, with no special abilities and all abilities starting at Lv. 1. However, he is the only character who is capable of reaching the full maximum level of Lv. 8 for Flame, Bomb and Skates, and access to every power-up lets him be flexible. This essentially means he has Magikarp Power, as he starts out fairly mediocre but if he survives long enough to hoard a bunch of power-ups, he becomes one of the most powerful characters in the endgame. | |

Recycled Soundtrack | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_405f6f52 | comment |
Recycled Soundtrack: Super Bomberman 4 reuses a few songs from Super Bomberman 3 (like the multiplayer battle, regular boss, and final boss themes). Super Bomberman 1 re-uses the title theme, battle theme, and all three stage themes from the 1990 TurboGrafx-16 Bomberman game. 3 and 4 borrow many tunes from Bomberman '93 and Bomberman '94. They basically are the same songs but with the SNES sound font. For instance, 3 lifts its title theme, intro theme, and map screen themes, among others, from '93. | |

New Work, Recycled Graphics | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_4d20a148 | comment |
New Work, Recycled Graphics: Super Bomberman 3 and (to a lesser extent) Super Bomberman 4 reuse assets from the TurboGrafx-16 games. Super Bomberman 5 also reuses a lot of graphics from all four previous Super Bomberman games. In an instance of New Work Recycled Song, Super Bomberman 4 reuses the regular boss theme from Super Bomberman 3 for the Four Bomber King battles... and reuses the final boss theme for the large boss battles. The latter feels somewhat out of place as a result. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: The series isn't internally consistent with its primary setting. In particular, Super Bomberman 3 is the first named appearance of Bomber Nebula, yet it still depicts Earth (despite the game it was based on debuting Planet Bomber). By Super Bomberman 5, Planet Bomber was given a new appearance and suddenly replaced Earth as Bomberman's home. 2 is a bit of an oddball in ways too, perhaps due to the fact that it was a completely different team than the first game, and not even sharing the same composer as all the other games. One major difference from the other games is that it has scrolling levelsnote Not entirely new to the series, but it's the only Super subseries game that has them, and thus does not allow multiplayer at all in its story mode. | |

The Smurfette Principle: The only female humanoid characters in the Super Bomberman series consist of Pretty Bomber, Lady Bomber, and Honey. Pretty Bomber would go on in the Bomberman Land series as the only main female. The Dastardly Bomber and the Four Bomber Kings (plus Great Bomber) are the main villain groups in the series. Each consists of four males and one female (Pretty Bomber and Lady Bomber, respectively). Averted in 5 with the Criminal Bombers, who were all male. | |

Unusual Chapter Numbers | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_61321e1 | comment |
Unusual Chapter Numbers: The story mode of 5 numbers the stages in each world, but due to the branching paths, the player will not go through them in a predictable, incrementing order. For instance, after zone 1-01, the player can go to 1-02, 1-05, or 1-07. The stage numbers will generally go in ascending order, but not always; for instance, on zone 1-02, the player can actually go back to zone 1-01 (or to 1-03). The player might not even necessarily start in zone X-01 of a world depending on which boss stage they went through in the previous world (some of the boss stages appearing identical, other than which zones their exit(s) will lead to). For instance, the player can start at zone 2-12 out of 15. | |

In Super Bomberman 2, Plasma Bomber's doomsday device fulfills this role quite surprisingly by killing Plasma Bomber just before he could complete a Heel–Face Turn, then it attacks Bomberman. It has to be defeated in the same way you defeat the final boss in Super Bomberman. | |

Inconsistent Spelling | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_66c725b6 | comment |
Inconsistent Spelling: The recurring Big Bad was originally romanized as Buglear in Bomberman '94. In the Super Bomberman 3 PAL manual, he's now referred to as Professor Bugler, and then Professor Buglar in the very next sentence (which happens twice). | |

Living Dinosaurs: Different dinosaurs show up early on in Super Bomberman 4 as generic enemies... until you blow them up and they turn back into eggs. The first one you walk over hatches back into the same dinosaur and gives you a ride, while any extra ones follow you around like Yoshi eggs. | |

Marathon Level | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_6dc206c9 | comment |
Marathon Level: The final world of Super Bomberman 3 consists of just one stage, but it is eight screens long, with the final screen naturally being the Final Boss fight. The arena world in the first game may also count, as the fights go one after another with no break (though technically each fight is one stage — this can be seen by using passwords). Running out of time can be a very real problem if one does not get a clock item, which unfortunately pseudo-Randomly Drops. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Getting 100% Completion, or even just the Good Ending in Super Bomberman 5 can be tough without a guide that tells which exits lead to which stages. Though the game is at least nice enough to color-code the exits: Ones that go to new levels are colored yellow, and ones that go to previously-visited levels are a dark purple. | |

100% Completion: Super Bomberman 5 features 100 levels, and each unique level cleared contributes 1% to the completion rate. The player will only be able to visit a small fraction of them on each playthrough due to this game's story mode's non-linearity. Getting 100% allows the player to start a New Game Plus where power-ups get shuffled around and they can go for 200%. | |

Mercy Invincibility | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_825f60fa | comment |
Mercy Invincibility: A very generous amount is given to you at the beginning of every stage in the first Super Bomberman game, so much that a trick could be used to take advantage of it. Lay a bomb, and wait for it to explode, then keep tapping the A button to lay more bombs, which will immediately explode because they are within an explosion. Walk around the stage while doing this and you can get a very nice head start. Just make sure you stop before your invincibility wears off, or, well… Super Bomberman 5 also starts you with invincibility, although a much smaller amount. The other three games don't start you with invincibility. | |

Puzzle Boss: The 2nd phase of the final boss of Super Bomberman has the two villains in a hovering vehicle well above any bomb explosions you try to send their way. To defeat them, you need to use the Punch Glove to lob bombs directly at the vehicle. If you don't have the Punch Glove, the game will give you one if you wait long enough. | |

Joke Character | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_8f1ec2c5 | comment |
Joke Character: Green Bomber in Online, who is the worst character in the game by a fair margin. He starts with Punch, Kick, and Power Glove, but he has miserable stats, with maximum Lv. 1 Flame, Lv. 1 Bomb, and no Skates and cannot pick up Piercing or Rubber Bombs, and unlike characters with similar stats like Pyramid Head Bomber, Green doesn't have a special ability to balance it out. Green's game plan essentially revolves around trying to kill opponents with their own bombs, as he is so terribly weak otherwise that it'd be a miracle to actually net a kill on his own. | |

My Rules Are Not Your Rules | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_b3b1115f | comment |
My Rules Are Not Your Rules: The final bosses of 1 and 2 are hated for this. Like some enemies in the game, they float to avoid bomb explosions; unlike other enemies in the game, they never come back down. The only way to damage them is to use the Bomb Punch/Glove power-up to hit or throw them over the head... which is implying that you, you know, have it and didn't LOSE it from dying. It becomes less of a battle against the boss and more of a battle against the RNG to try and dig up a Bomb Punch/Glove from under a destroyable block; the game becomes Unwinnable otherwise. Thankfully, all the later Bomberman games didn't use bosses like this. | |

Wutai: Edojidai in Super Bomberman 4. Planet Timbertree in R also has very Japanese (or at least "Eastern")-esque music and architecture. | |

| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_cb5cf4a5 | comment |
Poison Mushroom: The geta (wooden sandals) in later games reduces speed by one level, cancelling out one roller-skate power-up. May be good if if Bomberman has gotten too fast to control well, though. | |

Easy Levels, Hard Bosses | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_d4fa75fc | comment |
Easy Levels, Hard Bosses: While the later stages in the game can throw you a few curveballs, regular maps are mostly meant as an opportunity to gather power-ups. The bosses, by contrast, do not mess around: even ignoring the cases of Fake Difficulty (of which there are a few, the Final Boss of 1 and 2 are especially guilty), they take multiple hits compared to your measly one and can flood the arena with hazards on a whim. Bosses that follow PvP rules can be even worse if you're not good at the multiplayer. | |

Guest Fighter | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_d687ba2a | comment |
Guest Fighter: Super R invites Vic Viper, Simon Belmont, and Pyramid Head as DLC. A later patch introduced Jehuty and Anubis, a Bubblehead Nurse, Reiko, Goemon, Dracula, an Option, Shiori Fujisaki, and Princess Tomato. Another later patch introduced Solid Snake, Naked Snake, and Raiden, Ebisumaru, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean, Vic Viper Zero, Ayako Katagari, and Xavier Woods. The PS4, Xbox One, and PC releases of Super R adds Ratchet & Clank, Master Chief, and P-body, respectively. Ver 2.2 adds bombers based on Alucard, Mimi and Nyami, and Upa to every version. Version-exclusive characters include Caesar for the Switch release, Pipo Monkey and Toro from Doko Demo Issyo for the PS4 release, an Arbiter and a Grunt for the Xbox One release, and Atlas for the PC release. Super Bomberman R Online adds Richter Belmont Bomber and Robbie the Rabbit Bomber. Once R Online went multiplatform, the game added Bombers based on Old Snake and a Bean from Fall Guys. R Online Season 2 adds Soma Cruz Bomber, and Season 3 adds Suikoden 2 Hero Bomber. | |

Action Bomb | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_dae3999d | comment |
Action Bomb: In many of the games, there are enemies that are essentially hovering bombs with eyes. Occasionally, they would plop themselves onto the ground and shoot out fire in four directions to emulate an explosion without destroying themselves. Other enemies (including other bomb monsters) aren't immune to their flames, so they might end up accidentally killing enemies for you, though you aren't awarded any points for the kill(s). They can also destroy power-ups or release monsters from the exit, so you have to make sure to deal with them swiftly. | |

Delayed Explosion | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_df3b7b8 | comment |
Delayed Explosion: The "dud" bombs in Super Bomberman. Rarely, bombs would fizzle out partway through their fuses and not explode when they were supposed to. If they weren't set off by something else, the bombs would eventually reset themselves with a longer fuse before finally exploding. | |

Fake Difficulty | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_e4e86215 | comment |
Fake Difficulty: World 5 in the first game. A chain of fights against Mecha Bombers, with each fight counting as one stage, it will probably kill you at least once. Not by anything the bombers do, necessarily, but by virtue of running out of time without any time pickups to be had, since the time does not reset between fights. Kiss your Remote Bombs goodbye, and it's not even your fault. Probably. | |

Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups | |
| Super Bomberman (Video Game) / int_f53dd5eb | comment |
Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups: The piercing bombs and the manually thrown bombs. Super Bomberman 5 also has Land Mines and Pursuing Bombs. Even though Pro Action Replay codes could let you combine Piercing and Remote, those other two still won't stack with Remote. Also, if a game has both Bomb Kick and Bomb Walk abilities (again, SB5), they may not be able to overlap either. The first Super Bomberman averts this by letting you have both piercing (colored red instead of having spikes like in later games) and remote bombs at the same time without cheats. They'll just be red remote bombs, and have both powers at once. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: The Bomber Shitennou (plus Great Bomber) to the Five Dastardly Bombers in Super Bomberman 4. In Super Bomberman 2, Plasma Bomber's doomsday device fulfills this role quite surprisingly by killing Plasma Bomber just before he could complete a Heel–Face Turn, then it attacks Bomberman. It has to be defeated in the same way you defeat the final boss in Super Bomberman. | |
