Anyone ever played this cute platformer from Konami? It was released for the Famicom Disk System in 1988, and on Famicom cartridge format 5 years later.

I've played it, and I must say that's quite a novel concept of a game that is enough to make the kids happy and stay busy. How can anyone not love the concept of a newborn baby using a rattle to inflate enemies, and then use them to get past some tricky obstacles?

Also, if I'm right, I believe that it was the first video game ever made where a newborn baby was the protagonist.

If you ask me it is among the best platformers ever. Awesome game.

No, not yet but I loved the cameo and the cake stage based on it in Konami World 2 (Which is amongst my favorite games ever).

So you're the Rob from OFCPG the predcessor of HG101, huh?

The version of this game that I played was the original FDS version, and I have to say that I agree with you on the comment about how the FDS version had better music.

Yeah, that's me. I don't know if I'd call the OPCFG the predecessor to HG101, though... yes, Kurt ran the OPCFG during the first few years because I was unable to, but the sites are quite different from each other (and they were both running at the same time for a while too).

I don't know, what do the rest of you think?
