About this product

Product Information

Blaster Master for the NES is a classic tale about a boy and his pet frog. One day, your frog Fred falls into a hole in the backyard. He then becomes the property of the Plutonium Boss and his gang of villains. When Jason goes to rescue his pet, he stumbles upon a tank named Sophia. Jason also finds a gun that he can wield when outside of the tank. With his new equipment, Jason is ready to save Fred from the bowels of the underworld. Blaster Master for the NES was released in 1988. It was published by Sunsoft in the United States.The majority of Blaster Master uses a side-scrolling view. You control Sophia as you navigate the massive overworld. Sophia can shoot straight ahead and straight up. The tank can also jump, which you'll need to tackle the many platforming challenges. The map is massive, comprising over 200 screens. As you play, you'll encounter sections of the map you cannot access. Throughout the game, you'll upgrade your vehicle to reach these new areas. One upgrade will let your vehicle hover in the air. Another upgrade will let you drive underwater. Blaster Master has no in-game map. You'll need to remember the location of each area if you want to return to it later. At any point in your adventure, you can exit the vehicle and explore the world by foot as Jason. The objective of the game is to defeat the eight bosses hidden on the map. As you explore each area, you'll find doorways that lead to new locations. In each doorway is a maze of danger. These sections use an overhead gameplay view. You can walk and fire your gun in all eight directions. As you destroy enemies, you'll power up your weapon. You can also throw grenades at your foes. There are even some small puzzles to solve.In eight of these labyrinths, you'll encounter a boss. Each boss is huge and pushes the Nintendo hardware to its limits. These bosses resemble mutated animals. For example, one boss is a giant radioactive crab. Defeating these bosses is how you power-up both your tank and your handheld weapon. Blaster Master for the NES features an excellent array of music. The music features an upbeat tempo and will get you charged up for battle. The graphics in this NES game are just as impressive as the music. Each area in this NES game features its own song. Each area features a different color palette and design. At a glance, these colors let you know what area you are in and prevent you from getting lost. No matter how many enemies are on the screen in an area, this game does not lag. If you're looking for an intense action game, then you’ll enjoy this one. This Sunsoft video game combines exploration and fast-paced action into one package. This combination makes it stand out from other games on the platform.

    my favorite

    my favorite NES game. good thing I have a game genie.. this game is hard. it can't be saved so I have spent long nights of playing to get through it one boss at a time. once you figure a boss and level out then you can fly right through it the next time. some bosses have little spots where they can't hit you. figuring out those little details are key. I like to make it a game on how quick I can run through

    Great game, okay condition

    With a little tlc the game started working just fine which is what's most important. My only dissipointment is that there is a diagonal patch over the games artwork(unlike in the listing picture) . The end label is ruined because of this. My particular copy was also covered in what I guess was orange attic filth. Some rubbing alcohol and several cotton balls later the game is looking pretty alright.

  • BLASTER MASTER!!! CLASSIC!!!

    Blaster Master...ahhh, this game was quite awesome! Well, the game was awesome, the story was pretty lame though. Apparently your're a boy and you have this pet frog see... And he gets into some radioactive material or something and jumps into this giant hole in the ground and you jump in after him. Well once you get down the frog is nowhere to be found, however there is this massive tank with a huge turret on it. Apparently there is a suit and helmet there waiting for you as well for some odd reason. Instead of freaking out and trying to get out of the hole like you'd think, well no, you suit up and get into the tank and start riding around. Yeah, apparently whoever left this massive tank of a killing machine unattended left the keys to the ignition as well. Uh huh. Well you just ...

  • Way Ahead of it's Time

    Blaster Master is one of my favorite NES games, and was way ahead of its time. In Blaster Master you control an armored tank throughout a series of levels. The game is similar to Castlevania II and Metroid in that you can travel back to places that you were previously. In addition to the standard side scrolling action, Blaster Master also features a top-down, Zelda-like mode in which you control Jason instead of the tank. You can have Jason come out of the tank and walk up to doors which will allow you to explore areas that the tank cannot enter. In this mode you use Jason’s gun to kill enemies and eventually the boss. There are some areas you can enter that are riddled with enemies and power-ups however. There are also numerous weapons and upgrades that you can collect for your ...

  • It's like Metroid, with a TANK!

    This is yet another NES classic from some of the best days in gaming, sometimes described as "Metroid with a tank." Featuring side scrolling platforming action, combined with top-down shooting and exploring, Blaster Master is quite an adventure. Just prepare to be challenged by this fun, yet difficult game. I remember having much fun with this game as a kid, and was amazed that during the platforming sequences that the character isn't confined to the "Sophia" tank, and can jump out when needed. On top of that, the multitude of powerups, large colorful bosses, and the big "open" world (for its day) made this one I kept going back to and still do now today. Just beware of the lack of a save or password feature. This isn't a terribly short game, but don't worry - I can almost guarantee ...
