Enjoyed your writeup, I have played Bubble Bobble as much as the next person but never realised it was that deep, or that it had a ridiculous story.

Your deep dive into Panel De Pon is exactly my jam, thank you! Really interesting despite only having played Tetris Attack before.

New retrospective on why I consider Tomb Raider a meditation on third-person adventure games.

In my opinion it's the gold standard for arcade game design; super easy to understand and pick up and play, with the replay value being not just because of difficulty, but also because of the underlying depth and complexity and secrets to uncover which can result in even replaying early levels being a different experience now that you can utilise those hidden mechanics. It's why i'm very fond of shoot-em-ups too!
P.S. the story gets even goofier with revelations introduced in Rainbow Islands
Easy to play, hard to master! Insane to me that Bubble Bobble was hiding such complexity all these years (from me, at least!)
