It’s one of the earliest Godzilla games, but it’s also one of the most popular: it’s Godzilla: Monsters of Monsters for the Nintendo Entertainment System. (Or, as the Japanese themselves called it, the Famicom.) Developed by Compile, better known today as Compile Heart, Monster of Monsters tells a sci-fi tale that’s out of this world.
Pluto and Neptune cross paths, prompting the mysterious Planet X to appear. A legion of space monsters suddenly appears, rampaging across the Earth, led by the inhabitants of Planet X. But humanity has one hope, the ever-enigmatic Godzilla. In a rare move, Godzilla actually fights alongside long-time nemesis Mothra. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my massive insectoid friend!
Have you ever noticed just how many Super Nintendo games started their titles with the word “Super”? It was the most in-vogue thing to do in those days, similar to how the N64 spawned so many games with “64” at the end. Are we going on a tangent here? Sure, but it’s relevant. 1993’s Super Godzilla stormed onto the scene with ample aplomb, living up to its superlative description and then some.
Curiously, Super Godzilla is not a pure action game. Instead, the player essentially acts as Godzilla’s pilot; you play the role of an intelligent (and arguably unlucky) human charged with luring Godzilla around vast maps like a shepherd to a sheep dog. Godzilla goes up against the nefarious King Ghidora in the first stage, but Ghidora’s corpse vanishes only to reemerge near the end of the game as Mecha-Ghidora.
Godzilla’s gargantuan, but he’s managed to fit into the smallest spaces when necessary. Small spaces like the Game Boy Color and Nintendo DS, that is. Godzilla the Series: Monster Wars follows the cast of 1998’s divisive Godzilla movie. But, much like the cartoon it’s based upon, Monster Wars was better-received than that big-budget feature film. It features plenty of infamous monsters for our antiheroic dinosaur to duel.
Lastly, the DS entry Godzilla Unleashed is a fun relic of the early dual screen days with lavish visuals not unlike New Super Mario Bros and intense platformer gameplay. Flying monsters appear on the top screen, whilst grounded ones pop up on the bottom screen. As with all other DS games, MyEmulator replicates the two-panel effect as best we can — which is to say, quite nicely, if we do say so ourselves!
Whether you’re hankering for a return trip to Nintendo-era giant monster mayhem or you’re a younger gamer curious to see what you’ve missed, you’re guaranteed to find something monstrously up your alley. Stay tuned for even more exciting Godzilla goodness in the months and years to come!
