Gimmick! Special Edition Collector's Edition (PS4)

Yumetaro deserved better in 1992, and now, decades later, the little green blob is finally getting the star treatment. The Gimmick! Special Edition Collector's Edition for PlayStation 4 celebrates one of the most technically impressive and criminally underplayed Famicom gems ever made.

This was the game that pushed the NES hardware to places nobody thought it could go, and this collector's edition pushes the nostalgia factor just as hard. The Yumetaro plush is the centerpiece, a soft, huggable version of the bouncing protagonist that you never knew you needed until it's sitting on your desk. The retro cartridge keychain is a perfect tactile callback, the kind of thing you clip to your bag so other collectors can nod knowingly in your direction.

Two discs of soundtrack housed in a retro cart-styled CD case prove that the audio team understood the assignment on every level. An enamel pin and reversible cover round things out. For PS4 collectors who appreciate the mid-gen era's role in preserving retro history, Gimmick's collector's edition is a bridge between two worlds.

The game itself is a masterpiece of precision platforming. This edition makes sure it looks like one on your shelf.
