Nostalgia is a powerful force, especially in the world of video games. The announcement of a new Bomberman collection on Switch has rekindled the flame for countless players who grew up with Konami's explosive labyrinths. However, not all retro game collections on Switch are created equal. Between lazy ports and digital-only editions that leave collectors feeling empty-handed, disappointment can quickly set in.
As the head of product selection at Joybuy, my role is to help you sort through the noise. Let's break down what the Super Bomberman Collection on Switch has in store and how to avoid the common pitfalls of re-releases to make an informed purchase. With a release date set for August 28, 2026, the Super Bomberman Collection pre-order is looking especially tempting.
While the market for re-releases is booming, it's also filled with potential letdowns. Here are three things to check before giving in to the call of nostalgia.
To judge the quality of a Bomberman game on Switch, you have to look beyond the name on the box. Here’s what separates a rushed port from a true tribute to a legendary franchise.
The first criterion is simple: how many games are included, and more importantly, which ones? A good compilation should offer an excellent quantity-to-quality ratio. Be sure to check the full list of titles to ensure your favourite entries are part of the package. The Super Bomberman Collection shines here, offering 7 classic titles in 12 different versions (Japanese, American, and European), providing a complete overview of the series' golden age. The inclusion of Super Bomberman 4 on Switch and its sequel, both previously unreleased outside of Japan, is a major selling point.
Replaying games designed 30 years ago can be... rough. Quality-of-life features are therefore essential. Check for options like:
Backup/Load): To save your progress at any moment, without pulling your hair out over old-school password systems.Backward function): Misplaced a bomb? This option lets you rewind the action a few seconds to correct your mistake.For many, a video game is also a beautiful object. A physical edition is a prerequisite, but the details make all the difference. The presence of a printed game manual is a delightful nod to the editions of yesteryear. Likewise, a digital gallery containing development documents, sketches, and illustrations offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the creative process, enriching the experience far beyond the game itself.
Every player has different expectations. Here are a few recommendations tailored to specific needs, always with the joy of shared gaming in mind.
Why we recommend it: The ultimate nostalgia trip for anyone who wore out their Super Nintendo and wants to relive the pure thrill of local multiplayer, but with the comfort of a modern console. The perfect opportunity to share a piece of your gaming history.
This compilation checks all the boxes: a physical edition with a manual, modern features (save, rewind), and the inclusion of titles never before released in Europe, like Super Bomberman 4 and 5.
7 classic games (a total of 12 versions) on a single cartridge. The inclusion of the original soundtracks and a gallery of over 200 images makes it the ultimate collector's item.
Why we recommend it: For those who love the friendly chaos of a Bomberman match and are looking for a non-digital alternative to liven up evenings with family or friends. A game that blends luck, strategy, and sudden turnarounds.
The pitfall with some board games is overly complex rules that discourage casual players. UNO Quatro uses the ultra-simple rules of UNO that everyone knows, adding a strategic twist reminiscent of Connect 4 that completely revitalizes the game.
Easy to learn, quick to play. The plastic tiles and rack are built to last, making it a perfect game for travel and repeated play sessions.
Why we recommend it: For those looking for a fast-paced, high-energy party game where quick thinking makes all the difference. The frantic pace of the rounds is reminiscent of an intense Bomberman match where every second counts.
Unlike some word games that can be a bit slow, Tapple forces a brisk pace with its timer and letter-pressing system. Constant tension and guaranteed laughs, even for those who aren't dictionary experts.
A fast-paced word game with a unique electronic wheel. Its compact and portable design means you can take the fun with you anywhere.

Can you play multiplayer on the Super Bomberman Collection on the same console? Absolutely, local multiplayer is the DNA of Bomberman. Most titles in the collection allow for multiple players on a single Nintendo Switch, either by sharing Joy-Con controllers or using extra gamepads. This makes it the perfect choice for fun game nights.
Is an internet connection required to play? No, an internet connection is not required to play the titles included on the cartridge. The experience is 100% playable offline, whether in single-player or local multiplayer. A connection may only be necessary for potential software updates.

If the item's price drops between the time you place your order and its shipping date, you will pay the lowest price displayed on Joybuy.fr during that period. It's the assurance of getting the best deal without having to watch for price drops.
