Review - Medabots RPG - Metabee & Rokusho (GBA)
There's a game from my early teen that I always wanted to cover: Medabots RPG. Medabots was a short-lived series created amid the "Pokemon craze" of the late-90s, with many of its games on Nintendo's Gameboy exclusive to Japan under the name "Medarot". Unlike the more Pokémon knockoff, Digimon; Medabots put to death the "creature" aspect of the series, toward collecting "medaparts" and "Tinpet" to build robotic fighters and become a "medafighter": [...] "a human who controls a Medabot through a Medawatch, engaging in Robattles."

Williams Entertainment Inc. made Sinistar with its signature erratic, turbulent gameplay also found in Defender and Robotron 1984. It's main antagonist - Sinistar seems seems to be a sentient spacecraft bent on destruction and consumption, easily recognizable by his demonic cat face and demonic voice.
