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.
Pommy!

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.
good

I like bomberman the second attack because it's a challenging game but whenever an enemy knocks B.M off a cliff my brother says things like:stupid game!But another neat thing is while your playing (adventer mode) normal mode you can play as pommy! so it's a good game.
Best Game Ever!

Bomberman 64 The Second Attack, is the best game because it offers tons of new stratagies and weapons. Gravity bombs are the best. When I bought this game I was surprized at the gameplay and graphics! If you're gonna buy a N64 game, buy this one!
Simply Awesome

This game rocks! I am completely addicted. The multi-player option is a blast for parties or whenever a few friends are around. Great job on this masterpiece!

I really like this game. It is awesome, but I am still stuck at Zoniha's place. This is a good game, but very difficult to win if you only have a com Pommy. Also look on Bombermania.com to find what type of Pommys are good before evolving Pommy. MYU!
Bombs Away!

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.
