About this product

Product Information

The world government is greatly in need of your help! An evil empire has hatched a nefarious plan to attack the earth, and the only man (or woman) who can stop it is you! Climb into your R-Type fighter and destroy the alien hun in R-Type DX!<br><br>If you've ever played the classic R-Type on the Amiga or in the arcades, you know what you're in-for: a fast-paced side-scrolling shoot-em-up, with plenty of bizarre, squishy aliens to defeat. Multiple powerups like Fire Chains and Bubble Beams can be acquired, but watch your back -- one hit from an enemy and you're done for.<br><br>R-Type is essentially R-Type I and II combined onto one cartridge, with black-and-white and color versions of each (owners of older Game Boy systems won't be left out). The "DX" version is just the two games crammed together for a longer gameplay experience.<br><br>Though there's technically nothing new in this package, R-Type DX looks like it could satisfy a new genereation of hard-core shooter fans.

  • irem's finest

    Not as good as the master system version, but what do you expect this is gameboy. I've played this on game boy, gba, and retron5, I don;t have a gameboy color. this plays identical to r-type on gameboy (don't have r-type II to compare). I have a few versions of this game on other consoles and I am surprised the game boy pulled it off as well as it did.

  • Excellent.

    A timeless classic and hidden gem. The R-Type for the Gameboy is absolutely one of the best Shoot em ups for the handheld. Sound track is amazing. This one stays inside my gameboy.

  • Great game for the money

    Absolutely fantastic port of a classic, plays almost exactly as well as the Turbo Grafx 16 version. Very nice that this can be played on original and color gameboy.
