3D Classics: TwinBee™ – A hit sensation back in the day, this vertical-scrolling arcade game only made its release on the Famicom. Now, for the first time ever in North America, 3D Classics: TwinBee presents the old shooter along with a new 3D look for your enjoyment!
Guide the spacecraft, TwinBee, as you dodge and destory waves of aerial and ground enemies. If you get hit and lose both of your ship's arms, find an ambulance for repairs quickly! Shoot through the clouds to uncover bells. Collect these for extra points, or continue to shoot at them to gain different upgrades for your ship! Additional power-ups can also be collected from the ground!
Fly high in the sky with your anthropomorphic spacecraft in this new release of a classic!

Aya and the Cubes of Light – Keep on the Light! Solve the cubic mazes and rekindle the stars! Exceptional hybrid of puzzle, platform game and 3D action!
What's gotten into Cseom!? Instead of keeping the Cubes running, he's taking the Energy Packs out of the terminals! The Cubes are the power sources of the stars, and if they stop working it gets dark!
Play Aya, the daughter of the Cube Corporation. Teleport onto the Cubes to collect the Energy Packs to get the Cube engines working again. But it's not that easy to find your way around; you'll have to think around outside the box and mustn't get disorientated, even when you're upside down!
