Retro Gamer Issue 95

Magazine editor Darran Jones' vlog: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HH6b8rSKaI
The main feature this month has a huge feature on Bubble Bobble, talking about the game, its conversions, sequels, the creator, the high score champion.... lots and lots of stuff in there that'll make a fan very happy.

I am most interested in the Frank N Stein game for the ZX Spectrum. It's a single screen platformer and it has a lovely noisy arcade game feel. Featured in the magazine is an interview with the author Colin Stewart which talks about him making an update to the game.

Another thing I found interesting was the review of the homebrew Atari 2600 game Bellhopper, which is a port of an extremely addictive flash game called Winterbells. As far as I can see it's a very decent port.
