Butasan (ぶたさん) (also known as Mr. Pig and Pig and Bombers) is a arcade video game developed by NMK and Jaleco and released in 1987. It was ported to the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, MSX, and Amstrad CPC by U.S. Gold as Psycho Pigs U.X.B.
Gameplay
The player controls a pig and the aim of the game is to blow up other pigs by throwing bombs at them. The bombs are randomly spawned across the map and can be picked up and thrown at the other pigs. The bombs are given a number between 5 and 30; when the bomb is thrown it takes that number of seconds to explode. Bombs which directly hit pigs explode on contact. Various power ups are available throughout the game such as gas that makes all other characters fall asleep.
A bonus sub-game involves random pigs popping out of holes, and the player must knock them back down the hole with their own pig, in a similar mode of gameplay to Whack-a-mole.
Ports
The game was released on the Nintendo Switch in the Nintendo eShop on 16 May 2019 by Hamster Corporation as part of their Arcade Archives series and also on the PlayStation 4 on 14 July 2015 as part of the same series.
Reception
There were several criticisms of sexism when an advert of the game showing a semi-naked model holding the video game case was published in some specialized magazines.
