Rocko Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Anyone like these games? How many games were there? I can count 4 Bonk (PCE) Bonk 2 (PCE) Bonk 3 (PCE) Super Bonk (SNES) What other games are there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 There were some GameBoy adaptations of Bonk. There was also a CD version of Bonk 3 which was essentially the same game except with a CD soundtrack and a volleyball minigame. There may have been an arcade version, but I can't remember.

joeybastard Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 I have Bonk 1 &2 on the TG16. They are really fun games. The second one really shows off how nice the TG's graphics could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bratwurst Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 The arcade version was just Bonk's Adventure playing on TG-16 hardware in an arcade cab. Around 1989 NEC had a setup similar to Nintendo's Playchoice machines. There was a Super Bonk 2 for the Super Famicom, it never came over to the US but I heard it was even crazier than the first one. There are ports of Bonk's Adventure for both the NES and Gameboy, Bonk's Revenge was also ported for the classic handheld. They're worth playing through because I remember differences between them and the TG-16 titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Bonk was on the Commodore Amiga, under the name BC Kid, since the name Bonk was apparently already copyrighted by someone else in Britain. I don't know if other Bonk games were ported to the Amiga, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocko Posted April 29, 2004 Author Share Posted April 29, 2004 I hate to ask this, but where can I get a Super bonk 2 rom? I have one, but it is an IPS file and ZSNESW wont read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it sounds (and looks) neat. Forget I said anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgler Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Anyone like these games? Super Bonk (SNES) Indeed I do! Not sure how rare this is or any of that tripe, but I found this little baby for almost nothing a few weekends back. Lots of variety / insanity. Little tough to figure out sans book though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigma Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Bonk's Adventure on NES = teh suck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 I have the first two Bonk games for TG-16 and love them, but due to the high cost of the other two I will probably not own them for a looooooooooooooong time. TG-16 collecting is expensive in general - almost NOTHING goes for under $10 if it comes in the shell with manual! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talking about the hucard and CD versions of Bonk 3? I'd just settle for the hucard, the disc version has been going for crazy triple digits lately.

Susuwatari Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 What about Air Zonk? Technically it has Bonk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze_ro Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 I loved the Bonk game... it's too bad that he's gradually faded into video gaming history with characters like Wonder Boy, Wart and Donkey Kong Jr. --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8101987720 Yup, $103 just to get a Bonk 3, and that's a loose card. I actually want one in the case with the instructions (I won't even DREAM about the box). And it has to be the HuCard, since I don't have a Duo.

It was at $75 when I linked to it... 15 minutes before it ended. It still isn't that bad.. the other 2 games are fairly rare as well.. I know for a fact that the guy who bought it will resell that stuff. The 2 other games will sell for about $40 combined and the system could be sold for around $35 - $50 on its own...

Albert Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 I know I played the original two games on the TG-16, but I'm not sure about the third one, and I definitely never played the SNES game. I had a blast playing the first two, I know that! I'm not sure if I have them now, my TG16 games are all in a box at the moment. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bratwurst Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 The SNES Bonk is a little uncommon, just the way I like 'em. Not always on Ebay but you rarely pay more than 10-20 bucks when they do show up. Music's great! Some of the sprites were recycled from the TG-16 Bonk 3 but the powerups and levels are pretty far out for a Super Mario Bros. clone (as Nintendo Power criticized it as such). My favorite is the one where Bonk turns into a giant chicken and lays egg bombs. There's also a stage where the guy gets so big he floats around the solar system. Enough spoilers though.

Just like the original Playstation is usually referred to as the PSX (no X in Playstation!), the name of the original peripheral Sony was working with Nintendo on. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
