Bubble Bobble X Fueccoco

I wanted to make this for awhile. I think Fueccoco looks like a long lost player 3 of Bubble Bobble.  I really like this but I think i could totally do another one with these guys lol.

Perhaps a Draco x Hufflepuff Reader?

Hufflepuffs are known for their kindness, so what happens when during a DADA class about Boggarts has Draco using the counterattack on the reader's boggart while reader is frozen with fear?

The reader's deepest fear is of themselves, a dark mark upon their arm, and their wand raised with the red glow of "Crucio"

Mirrored Wardrobe

Draco x Male Reader

Context: It's mostly based on the movie scene, and for this story the reader is stood in line between Parvati and Harry.

Summary: You've been dreading the boggart lesson since you heard through the grapevine it was on the curriculum. Here, in Lupin's classroom, you're not so sure if it was really as bad as you'd feared.

Word Count: 1,106

Lupin sent the lot of the class to sort themselves into line, and you briefly locked eyes with Draco as he shoved past Neville.

Shoes tapped against the floor, echoing in the air of the large classroom. You settled into place. Observing, you felt anxiety pulse in your chest. The sound of the boggart changing forms replaced the sound of chatter as first Ron, then Parvati Patil approached it. 

At the front of the line, you fiddled with the sleeves of your robe at the crack of the monster’s transformation. There it stood: a tall snake that couldn’t have been shorter than twenty feet. 

It bobbed menacingly, baring its fangs and its flickering tongue. It slithered, chest puffed out and head dipping down from where it nearly touched the ceiling to hiss at Parvati. Gasps rang out through the room, just as horrified as they’d been when Ron had the thing turn to a massive spider.

Parvati’s hand tightened at her side around her wand, and she bravely raised it to the reptile, yelping the counter charm. Another pop whipped through the air. 

A clown, just as big as the snake had been, sprang upwards in its place. It bounced and bobbled and the spring that held it in its box creaked with every motion. A jack-in-the-box. 

Lupin praised Parvati’s success and motioned for you to step up.

The clown teetered, tipping back and forth, looming over you. In its eyes you could see your own as the clap sounded out. Its form morphed and contorted until your own wand was pointed at you. 

You stared, wide-eyed at your doppelganger. Its appearance was disheveled, outer robe shed leaving only your vest and shirt with the sleeves rucked up around the elbows.

The brand etched into its left arm was all too quick to catch your eye. The skull taunted you, snake tongue twisted in knots. The last of your breath left your aching lungs and you swore you could see it writhe under the false you’s skin, bubbling like it boiled. 

Terror swelled in the back of your mouth. You swallowed around rising bile. Ice rushed through your veins as the boggart smirked. The goofy music Lupin had put on fell quiet, drowned out by the static in your ears. 

Red sparked at the tip of fake you’s wand, and you watched your own face warp into a sinister expression. Your grip on your real wand loosened.

Waving through the air, a hideous buzz filed through the thundering cloud of red. Your doppelganger’s mouth opened. Your hands trembled. The counter charm clawed at the back of your throat, but sweat pooled at your brow and your fingers failed you. 

Your wand tumbled to the floor with a clatter. 

“Cruci-”

“Riddikulus!” 

Before the boggart could finish the curse, Draco’s wand was pushing into your vision. He barked the charm, stepping in front of you protectively and shoving you backwards with a hand to your chest. 

The boggart crackled, mutating in a cloud of dark and spitting itself back out with a last snap. Your own face still peered back at you. Its clothes had shifted from your regular uniform into an ill-fitting yellow dress. 

A blue robe draped over your doppelganger's shoulders, its hair longer and tied into chunky braids that cascaded down its front. In place of your wand, the boggart now held a golden cup. Helga Hufflepuff, really?

After a moment of tense silence, giggles began to fill the room. Low laughter turned to broad cackling until even you were letting out a dry chuckle at the boggart’s embarrassment through the fading haze of fear. 

The ringing in your ears gave way, and you could hear Lupin’s music again. The tingling in your spine subsided.

"Thank you, Draco." You breathed.

Draco whipped around to face you. Unlike the rest of the class, he was not amused. He bent down to swipe your wand off the ground. He knocked into your space. A firm hand circled your upper arm, and with an almost bruising grip he pulled you to the back of the line. 

Lupin’s startled commentary fell into the background chatter. Harry Potter approached the boggart.

“What was that?” Draco hissed. He gripped onto your shoulders, shoving your wand back into your hands.

“What was what?”

"The boggart, you oaf, the thing I just saved you from."

"You didn't have to save me!" You argued, a twinge of shame prickling behind your ribs. Crabbe, Goyle, and Pansy condescendingly side-eyed you.

Draco scoffed, sneering at his friends and turning so he blocked them from your view. “Like hell I didn’t! Why was it a death eat-” 

He was cut off by the insipid, rattling wheeze of the cloaked figure the boggart had wrenched into. All at once, a heavy pressure of despair drowned the air.

You both craned your necks around the rest of the line to see it better, the parody dementor lunging towards Harry in a freakish, unnatural motion. You held your breath. Lupin stepped in front of him. 

The boggart once more crackled and distorted, settling into the dusty image of clouds revealing a full moon. With another utterance of the counter charm, a beige balloon was soaring across the room with a humorous whir. 

It flew back into the mirrored wardrobe it belonged in. The doors swung shut behind it. 

The room fell into a deeper, unbroken quiet. “Sorry about that, er- That’s enough for today.” Lupin rushed out. “If you’d all like to collect your books at the back of the class, that’s the end of this lesson, thank you!”

The swarm of your classmates groaned, and Lupin’s apology fell on deaf ears. Draco turned back to you. Concern flickered in his eyes for just a moment. Tension lingered between you.

Crowd moving, students cleared out one by one. Goyle’s hand came to tug at Draco’s shoulder. Crabbe and Pansy weren’t far behind. He glared at Draco expectantly, and you could hear the sharp intake of the blonde’s breath. 

Draco looked you up and down one more time before scoffing again. He rolled his eyes.

Smoothing down the front of his robes, he rolled Goyle’s hand off him and swayed away. His shoulder rammed into yours as he passed, purposefully weaker than usual. His friends trailed behind him. You watched him go. 

For a few seconds, you let yourself sit in the emotions that surged through you. The last wave of your fear dwindled. What on earth just happened with Draco?

Shaking your head, you let out a confused sigh, before finally moving to grab your books and leave the classroom.

The way I got this request and said out loud to myself "Wait that actually goes so hard". Whoever is anon, your brain is working wonders to have thought of this and I'm here for it. That concept is so incredibly gangnam style I'm HONORED you've selected my inbox of all places to submit it. <3

Also peep me answering the ask with the fic. 🤭 I hope it is a welcome advancement, I was scrolling through other fics and just randomly realized I, too, could do that like everyone else in the tags does.

I'm sorry this took so long, I have 246 missing assignments.

I'm back with the next alien redesign, Upchuck! I based the design off of the characters Bub and Bob from the Bubble Bobble series. Meanwhile, the overalls are modeled after the ones they wear in human form in Rainbow Islands, the sequel to Bubble Bobble. :) Look for more redesigns from me in the future :O

SNK Neo Geo CD - Puzzle Bobble

Title: Puzzle Bobble / パズルボブル

Developer/Publisher: SNK / Taito

Release date: 2 May 1995

Catalogue No.: NGCD - 083

Genre: Bubble Match Puzzle

Bub and Bob make their first debut puzzle game on the Neo Geo in the name of Puzzle Bobble (Bust-a-Move for its western title). It was also released on the Neo Geo, this Neo Geo CD version, the Super Famicom, Game Gear and 3DO, and as you know all versions are basically the same apart from a few little twists in, say, the audio and graphical department. The Game Gear version is a great version to play on the go, the Super Famicom version is pretty good, the 3DO is basically the Super Famicom game but with CD music, and this Neo Geo CD version is basically the Neo Geo AES game on a CD. Still, a great puzzle game that’s well worth getting if you don’t own Puzzle Bobble 2X, Puzzle Bobble 3 or Puzzle Bobble 4.

The Latest Arcade Archives Sale Includes A Whopping 20 Games From Taito and Hamster

It's a big one this time, retro arcade game fans. Hamster's doing another sale on some of its Arcade Archives titles on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4/5, and instead of the usual ten games on sale we've got twenty to consider. Ten of the games are Taito titles, while the other ten come from the various bits and bobs that Hamster has bought over the years. All of them are 30% off, and the sale runs until February 26th.

I'll mention as always that it's rare for any given Arcade Archives game to go on sale more than once, so if you're interested in something here then you should buy it soon. Oh, and if you don't see the sale yet, just give it a little time to propagate to your region's store. Let's go through those games, one by one.

Arcade Archives Taito Games (30% Off)

Kiki Kaikai (Also Seen In Taito Milestones 2)

The series this game kicked off is generally known in the West as Pocky & Rocky. It's a multi-directional top-down shooter with a Japanese Youkai theme. Tons of fun, exceedingly charming, and a game I would easily recommend to anyone who likes old arcade games enough to be reading an article like this.

The Ninja Warriors (Also Seen In Taito Milestones)

The Ninja Warriors is best remembered for two things: its incredible Zuntata soundtrack, and the far better reimagining/sequel done by Natsume on the Super NES. This is a very simple side-scrolling action game in the vein of things like Vigilante or Spartan X. It's not terrible, but it gets repetitive in a hurry.

Solitary Fighter (Also Seen In Taito Milestones 2)

The 1991 follow-up to Violence Fight, it's a pre-Street Fighter 2 fighting game with all that implies. It's a clumsy game to be sure and not very good compared to the modern conception of this genre, but you get to fight a bear and when you hit things a big DOGOOOOOON sometimes gets thrown onto the screen. Ten out of ten, no notes.

Elevator Action (Also Seen In Taito Milestones)

Elevator Action is a great game. You start at the top of a building and need to make your way to the ground floor, grabbing all the secret documents along the way. You'll be hounded by enemy agents, but you have a firearm of your own to protect yourself with. Per the title, you'll be using a lot of elevators. You can squash enemies with them. There's a lot of depth in this humble little game. Highly recommended.

Chack'n Pop (Also Seen In Taito Milestones)

The protagonist of this game is sometimes used as a mascot by Taito, and many of the visual elements were recycled for the far more famous Bubble Bobble. It's a single-screen action game where, as Chack, you have to free all the trapped hearts on each stage and then make your way to the exit. Enemies will dog you along the way, and your only means of defense are some very treacherous bombs. You also have stick 'em powers. Like many early Taito games it's a bit too complicated for its own good, but that also gives it a certain appeal.

Front Line (Also Seen In Taito Milestones)

If you want to know the origins of games like Ikari Warriors or Commando, you'll want to check out Front Line. It's a top-down military shooter, and it's drenched in that early arcade awkwardness that makes it hard to hate. It's enjoyable as a score attacker, so if that's your thing then you might want to dig into this.

Pirate Pete

This is a reskin of Jungle Hunt, which itself was a reskin of a Tarzan game. Swing along the ropes, then take a little swim, then jump your way to rescue your pirate girlfriend. A simple loop to be sure, but it's a solid one. While people likely have more nostalgia for the Jungle Hunt version, I think the pirate theme works just as well.

Flipull

Sometimes known as Plotting, this is a puzzle game where you have to throw marked blocks at a pile to remove a certain quota. You have a limited number of blocks and a timer to push against in each stage, and the challenge heats up in a hurry. I like this one a lot. It's a good pick-up for fans of arcade puzzlers.

Raimais

This one's more than it initially seems to be. It's similar to Head On, where you're driving a high-speed vehicle through mazes collecting dots. You need to avoid crashing into your opponents while you're at it. The thing about this game is that there are a ton of secrets to uncover and a lot of different paths to the ending. It's not going to be for everyone, but for some it's going to be a complete obsession.

Time Tunnel

Time Tunnel hails from 1982, and you know that means it's going to be either a shooter or weird. This one is the latter. You control a train and need to move around in mazes performing a variety of objectives. A quirky little game that is kind of fun to chew on if you come into it with the right mindset.

Arcade Archives Hamster Games (30% Off)

Turbo Force

A vertical shoot 'em up originally published by Video System. You play as a flying car with laser beams. I mean, that's a selling point. You can power up your attack, but its strength will wear down the longer you hold down the fire button. You'll need to balance between laying down fire and letting it rest. Not an amazing game, but not a bad one either.

Rezon

Another shooter, this one of the horizontal variety. It was originally released in 1991 by Allumer, and it's more than a little inspired by R-Type. Like most games you can say that for, it's nowhere near as good as what it's biting from. The gimmick here is a pair of extra guns that give you added firepower and can be locked into place to use as a shield. You can't shoot while using them as a guard, though. It's kind of trashy, but that's the sort of game you want to grab on sale.

Strike Gunner

A vertical shooter, this one originally released by Athena. It had a Super NES port that seemed to be hanging around the racks of every rental shop, but this arcade version is a little different. You can choose a weapon for each stage, but you can only use each one once so you have to think carefully about which one to use when. You can also do a fusion move, but only when playing with another person. A little bland, but there's some comfort in its meat-and-potatoes action.

Itazura Tenshi

Here's a Nichibutsu game where you play as an angel trying to connect the stars of various constellations. Sometimes you can pick up a bow to fend off the enemies that hassle you in this endeavor, but you'll have to rely on dodging most of the time. A very unique game that is satisfying to run score attacks on.

Magical Speed

Speaking of unique games, this is a take on the card game Speed. You can play against the CPU or another player locally, and… it's Speed. It's also completely in Japanese, so keep that in mind if you're going to pick this up. It's amusing enough, but not one I would be in a big rush to pick up.

Omega Fighter

I hope you like vertical shoot 'em ups, because we've got one more here. More to come, too. This one was originally released by UPL, and it's not too shabby. You get extra points for destroying enemies close-up, there are items you can pick up and use, and your shot is quite devastating. The scoring opportunities make this quite well-suited to the timed Caravan mode included in all of these releases.

Radical Radial

Radical Radial is a vertically scrolling shooting game from 1982, and it's surprisingly good. You play as a tire, and you'll need to avoid and jump over obstacles as you deal with foes. Lots of Nichibutsu energy flowing through this, and a game I've enjoyed quite a bit since picking it up in a sale a few years back. I'd recommend it.

Penguin-Kun Wars

Oh yes, this is a charmer. You and another animal sit at opposite sides of a table. Your goal is to throw all of the balls to the other side, while your opponent does the same. If you hit them with a ball, they'll be temporarily stunned. The same goes for you, of course. This is the key to winning. Fast and just a good time all around.

Thunder Dragon

Were you looking for another vertical shoot 'em up? Okay, but in this one you're a battle helicopter and it plays a lot like Raiden. Like, an awful lot like Raiden. I've played far worse takes on Raiden, however. The scoring system has a good punch to it, which is always a plus for Arcade Archives releases. Get on those leaderboards!

Saboten Bombers

This is not a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up! No, it's one of those elimination platformers in the vein of Bubble Bobble, and it's decent. You're a living cactus, and you blow things up with bombs. Lots of bonus items to pick up and weird enemies to battle. It's far from the best example of this sub-genre, but if you like this sort of thing then I think you'll get your money's worth out of it at this discounted price.
