Wow, didn't think I'd run into this game again. I only ever rented this game, as it came out way towards the end of the N64 era of video gaming. Nevertheless, it was always an extremely fun game to me and I recently revisited it at a friend's house. Boy, did playing it again bring back memories!
Once upon a time, I would rent this game and play it nonstop. The gameplay is simple yet challenging at the same time, especially once you make it to the optional worlds. Not to mention trying to get the rare pieces of armor in each level is also a fun challenge.
The story: you possess the elemental stone of fire and are on your way home from a long vacation to a hot springs planets where you found a curious looking egg. Suddenly, a black hole sucks you in and you wake up in a jail cell. The egg hatches to introduce Pommy, who evolves throughout the game based on the food you obtain by killing enemies and destroying boxes. You begin to meet various Elemental Knights (one of which is VERY familiar to fans of the first BM64 game, but I won't spoil it) and a mysterious woman named Lillith. Together with Lillith you attempt to stop an insidious plot to revive a god and, at the same time, destroy the black hole and get home.
The story is excellent, but what was the one problem with the game? It's way too easy to die, especially when you reach the amusement park world and encounter a puzzle with spikes that are incredibly easy to touch and will kill you on impact. And also, unlike many games, the final boss is incredibly difficult. This may give kids who thinks "It's an E game, so it's easy" a rough time. The last uber annoyance may be the save feature. You need to beat a level to save. Otherwise you must restart the level, which can be an absolute pain on the last three levels especially.
Final word: All in all I must say that this is one of my favorite games of all time and I spent hours and hours of game time (and then some). Therefore, I am proud to give this game a 4.75 star rating in the fun factor. However, due to the problems that may give players a bit of difficulty, overall, I give it 3.5 stars.
Fun enough if you can make it to the save point.

Man, Bomberman Attack just wasn't that fun for me, at the end of the day. You had to finish the entire world before saving. I realized, as I was rather dreading to start it up again, that I just did not have to. I have enough games that if that particular game is not my thing I can just not play it. I love Mario, and Pac-Man along with Bomberman but I have a limit. Sometimes my fingers just cannot move fast enough to stop dieing. So when I started Bomberman Attack I realized early on that I could only go to a certain point without getting any better; that point didn't have a save area.
I really enjoyed what I could play, so it made me rather sad to have to put it away for good.
Very good

I love this game. Problem is there aren't many stages in it. But still I would say this game has about 16 hours in it. If you like to hunt for body parts it'll be longer tho so... that's a good thing. There's also a lot of different type of bombs in this game like the shadow bomb which you'll get at the semi final worlds. Just like the other Bomberman games there is a wide variety of enemies which I like about it... Despite it's shortness this game is still worth it, trust me cause I am not a fan of short games myself either.
Bigest fan

The sequel to my most Favorite N64 game improves on its' positives and makes an even more enjoyable game to play. Bigger, better bombs, and arenas make this one a winner. If you like Bomberman, or just want a good Multiplayer game to play with your friends, pick this one up...you'll be glad you did.
The Best Game Ever Made For N64

It's the new and improved Bomberman. It has all new levels and bombs.The new bombs are what make this game so fun. Each consist of it's own power. All these bombs will help you with your quest. The levels are very challenging. You not only need defeat the boss on each planet, you have to destroy the genarator as well. Don't rent this game, BUY IT!
EXPLOSIVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This whole game is great! The first one was good, but this is way better. The levels are complex, the story line is excellent(especially the cut scenes) the bosses are incredibly hard and you get bombs from beating them. The hidden Guardian armor look very cool and help you out. Pommy can help you as a computer, but you can also have a 2-player cooaperative mode. There's even an RPG element, because as you colect different food, pommy grows over time. The custom bomber option is cool, as are the 5 multi-player modes. What's not to like? Another awsome thing is the different endings, which are effected depending how you beat the bosses. You can't argue with quality. It looks,feels,and plays great. If you like suspense,humor, great graphics,great story and a party, don't hesitate. GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great sequel!!!!

I think the best thing about this game is having Pommy(your sidekick) be second player. This game is vere challenging and has very mysterious charecters(like Lilith). It has 12 bosses and nine absolutely huge levels ( especially level 9). the second level was a real tougie but the boss was easy. The last boss the Angel(Creator of the Universe) is very very hard. (An easier way to beat the game is to die while battling Lilith, and there will be a sad ending and an easier boss.)If you do the easy boss Lilith dies(goodbye Bomberman's future marrige).Bombermans bombs are very cool especially the shadow bomb. Regulus the snow level boss from Bomberman 64 is back and he wants revenge as a strong fighter, Bulzeeb. The multi player is the best and becomes the bestest if you have a memory card. I recommand it to everyone.
