Diet Go Go (Arcade)















Diet Go Go is an arcade game by Data East which was released in 1992, it's a single screen platform game in the vein of the Bubble Bobble series and it's actually pretty decent.

I'd never actually heard of this game until last weekend when i was browsing ebay for any Jamma PCB bargains and came across this gem for under £20, the minute i googled it and then looked on Klov i knew i had to have it at that price!
















The board arrived today and i stuck it straight in my cab, booted up first time with no problems which amazed me considering the price.

The game itself is pretty bonkers, the enemies are such things as chef's, cakes & gingerbread men who throw food at your character, taking a hit off said food makes your character become fatter until after being hit by a bit of food twice they die!!
However the enemies can be taken out in a very similar way to Bubble Bobble as they inflate when hit with your weapon and then burst when you jump into them.

Video here if that makes less sense to you than it does me!
