Bubble Bobble
In Japan, "Game Machine" listed "Bubble Bobble" on their November 1, 1986 issue as the second most successful table arcade cabinet of the month, after Taito's "Arkanoid". In the United Kingdom, "Bubble Bobble" was the top-grossing arcade game for three months in 1987, from April to June. The home conversions were also successful in the United Kingdom, where the game appeared on the sales charts for several years. The ZX Spectrum budget re-release topped the UK charts in July 1991.
