When noted 21st-century scientist Doc Yoshiyama fell in love with one of his creations, a "C-Life" artificial intelligence, he uploaded himself into his computer to be with her. Her program core and his DNA fused to create an entirely new entity. And so, Doc Yoshiyama's "son", Pulseman - half-human, half C-Life - was born. Unfortunately, Doc Yoshiyama's mind was twisted as he emerged back into real life, and he became the evil Doc Waruyama.
As Pulseman, you'll have to fight your way through 7 crazy stages and stop Doc Waruyama and his villainous Galaxy Gang! Pulseman has the ability to harness electricity as a weapon, which can even be used in the form of a rapid transport Voltecker attack.
Take Pulseman on his epic mission and find out why this classic title was regarded as a masterpiece of Sega Mega Drive game design!
In-game text will include some Japanese.

Ah Pulseman. Similar to Gunstar Heroes if I am mistaken? Been waiting for this game to be announced since it came out in Japan ages ago.

This looks pretty decent. This might be the next import I buy.

Such a shame that it will probably be downgraded to 50hz like Segas other Hanabi titles. What a joke.

Looks neat and you can never have too many action platformers anyway.

Galaxy gang here meanwhile in Pokémon diamond & peal there's Team Galatic which is one of the connections between these Game Freak games.

Is it me or does he sound like he's uttering an expletive when he fires his gun?

It's supposed to be "Flash Arrow" but the quality is kind of poor.

Woot! ESRB rating!

It sounded like Flash Arrow to me.

@Betagam. Sounds to me like he's saying "fudge arrow".

How excited am I about the impending rerelease of Pulseman? Well, I'll just say that it'll really make my videogaming year. No joke - I'm mad for 2D platformers, and this is one of the few high-profile ones that I've never had the chance to play. This is what the VC is all about!

I've actually been interested in this since Japan got it. A pre-Pokemon made game by GAME FREAK? Sounds interesting.
@roo Me too! I like most platformers (except Mega Man, something puts me off completing Mega man 2)

DEFINITE buy for me. Will be my first time playing!

You PAL guys get this game tomorrow, ya lucky dogs.

RadioShadow said:
Wow, Pulseman runs in 50Hz (no surprise) and doesn't run using a component lead (WTF?). It runs fine if played on a US Wii.
EDIT: Doh! I forget about activating the Component PAL Fix on my brother's Wii (press Z + A + 2 in the Operational Manual). ^^'
So it does work on a component cable fine on a PAL console.

Love that Mega Drive music

slangman said:
It's nice to see Sega are still downgrading their imports for europe.
#28
Betagam7 said:
Another game for Pal users to avoid

linrek-1 said:
Graphics 10
music 8 ( -2 for voices)
controlls 9 (-1 for bad controlls under water)
durability (8) (-2 for short length)
A challenge for anyone who thinks sonic was to fast and megaman to slow! 8.5 / 10

J-Man said:
Well.... When will we get it? At least Nintendo of Europe has the decency of telling their people when VC games come out.

Fuzzy said:
Pretty fun game. A little short, but fun while it lasts, and i will be sure to play through it every now and again. There were no problems with the lack of translation. There are still bits of english text, and the voice acting pretty much tells the in-game story (and some of it is pretty funny, even though I'm not sure if that is intentional or not!)

Is he saying something he shouldn't?

Does he relate to the mega man games? Cause he looks like he does.
