Bomberman Jetters Intro 2 (2004, Majesco/Hudson Soft)
35Bomberman Jetters (ボンバーマン ジェッターズ Bonbāman Jettāzu) is a video game for the Nintendo GameCube and PlayStation 2 systems, though only the GameCube version was released in North America. It is an adaptation of the anime series Bomberman Jetters which was based on the Bomberman game series. This is the second Bomberman title licensed under Majesco Games. It was released in Japan in 2002 and in North America in 2004. The PS2 version does not use cel-shaded graphics, while the NA GameCube version continues to use cel-shading, just like the previous game in the series, Bomberman Generation.
The opening theme to the game uses footage from the Japanese opening to the Jetters anime series, but the Japanese theme song "Boku wa Gakeppuchi" was replaced with a rock instrumental in the north-american version.
Mujoe and The Hige Hige Bandits, sick and tired of Bomberman repeatedly stopping their plans at galactic conquest, enact a plan to do away with him and his kind forever; Dark Star, Mujoe's artificial comet, would be used and hurled straight into Bomberman's home world, Planet Bomber. The resulting collision would completely obliterate the planet and all who were still on it. Dark Star will hit the planet in under 24 hours, so Bomberman and Max are sent out to deactivate the huge engines propelling the comet through space, thereby disabling its flight-plan and again thwarting the Hige Hige Bandits.
Though based on the anime series of the same name, the "Jetters" game is more along the lines of a sequel to 2002's Bomberman Generation as a result of the similar gameplay, graphics, and characters (Bomberman and Max versus Mujoe and the Hige Hige Bandits).
Bomberman is only referred to as "Bomberman" once in the game (during the opening anime sequence); throughout the rest of the game he is referred to as "White Bomber" and is never called "Shirobon".
