Instead, you lose clothing each time you are hit. The game also removed the charge attacks and heart based life system. You only start the game with Little Ninja, Bomber Bob, and Rocky (You get the others as you progress through the game). You get different types of bombs depending on which partner you have at the time and you will lose that partner momentarily (so you can't just keep tossing them) after you have thrown them. You only really use "bombs" on bosses and to use them, you must throw your partner at the boss. You can't dash anymore and they changed the bomb system this time around. You still have Pocky and Rocky, but you also have Little Ninja, Bomber Bob, Tengy, Scarecrow, Digger, and Ottobot, and they all have different abilities. The game is still two players, but there are many differences between Pocky & Rocky 2 and Pocky & Rocky. I also think that it's pretty cute when Pocky says "Magic!" so the graphics and the sound are still top notch as far as SNES games go.

The previous game went up to 24 while P&R2 has 34.

The sound is still excellent and of high quality and now there are more BGMs. To balance this, the game has cooler special effects.huge flame pillars, green waves when using magic, a massive water geyser with fish flying into the air.great stuff! While I like the sound of the previous game more, Natsume still managed to provide me with excellent music.and more of it. Colors don't seem AS sharp and as a whole, the game still looks excellent, but there is a small but noticeable drop in the quality of the graphics as far as the backdrops. However, if you look closely, the graphics are actually less detailed than the first game.

The game is still rich and full of color, quirkiness, and excellent backdrops. If you played the first Pocky & Rocky game, then you know what to expect as far as graphics. They help to train Pocky and her friends and then you are sent on your way to rescue Luna. When Princess Luna steps out to make her appearance, she is then kidnapped by a girl named Impy by order of her master! Pocky and her friends then consult the "seven wise people". The entire village, including Pocky and her friends have also gathered in the festival square. This time around, the game starts during the harvest festival and Princess Luna is visiting from the moon to join the festivities. However, developers tend to learn from some of their mistakes and since the first game did not fare too well in the U.S., Natsume decided to release the game in limited quantities, making it sought after and rather expensive. While the first Pocky & Rocky game didn't see much success in the U.S., Natsume was kind enough to give the U.S. the best of the best, but in actuality, they do try. "Sayo" is the name of Pocky in Japan, while the name of Rocky was "Manuke".Ī lot of people think that the folks in Japan like to hold out on giving the U.S. There is supposed to be a "Nintendo Power" version in 1998. You can find out more about the game at this link. The game was going to have the name of Kiki Kai World, but that name was changed to avoid any complications.
#POCKY AND ROCKY 2 BETTER PS2#
The Japanese only received the game on the Wii, but the game was also ported on the PS2 in the U.S. However, sometime recently, The game was "redesigned" and released with the name of "Heavenly Guardian" in the U.S., "Legend of Saiyuki" in PAL territories, and "Yukinko Daisenpuu ~Sayuki to Koyuki no Hie- Hie Daisoudou~" in Japan. When the article was first written, the "rebirth" of Pocky & Rocky that was slated for the PS2 was canceled. For those of you who have previously read this article, you will notice that I made a few changes. It it also called "Kiki KaiKai: Kayako" too. This game is also known as "Kiki Kaikai Tsukiyozoushi" as well as "Kiki Kaikai: Tsukiyo Soushi". Wii Virtual Console Release: No Other Info: Information on PS2 Kiki Kaikai found at Game Watch.
