After the failure of the Bomberman: Act Zero on the Xbox 360, Konami are attempting to redeem themselves. They’ve announced that the PSP will be graced with the original Bomberman game. Not only that, it’ll be hitting store selves in less than a week. Konami gave a list of features gamers should expect to see in title:
Normal mode is the latest single player Bomberman adventure, complete with a new story and 100 levels, while classic mode is based on original Bomberman gameplay and features over 50 different levels for players to experience. Bomberman offers a multiplayer battle mode, which allows up to four players to fight for survival in a variety of highly customizable game types across 20 different stages via wireless ad hoc play. Lastly game sharing lets up to 4 players battle together in timeless multiplayer party modes with just one UMD.
It’s good to see Konami are accepting that Bomberman: Zero was a failure, and trying to fix any broken hearts they have caused with its release. But is the PSP really the best platform to release it on? Would any of you think about picking a copy up when it hit store shelves?
I think they new Zero was a bomb. Probably just a spare time project with the way it’s put together
oh yea give it to sony, the only thing nintendo did was begin the franchise but no bomberman you go ahead and whore yourself :
Make a new bomberman, like the old one, on the DS, but make it WiFi. That would so own. Bomberman over the net.
First of all there already is a Bomberman for the DS. It’s not to great though, I think its kinda slow paced. But they are working on another Bomberman for the DS and this one will have WiFi multiplayer, so all is right in the world

Remove that comma before “On the DS”. My bad. Looks awesome, WiFi games are so much fun.
Now, if the 360 Bomberman was a XBLA title, it would have done better, you can’t expect people to pay that much for Bomberman.
I dunno, many people seem to be more towards the DS getting the port of bomberman, but the PSP is probably closer in terms of display and stuff to the original.
