is a video game console-only sequel to the 1983 Namco/Midway arcade game Mappy. The game was developed by TOSE and published by Namco in Japan and Taxan in North America for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was later released by Bandai Namco Entertainment for the Wii U Virtual Console worldwide in February 2015, and on the Nintendo Switch Online Service in March 2022. Storyline Mappy must travel through various themed areas, collecting six target items in each one, while attempting to avoid Goro and his gang of Meowkies. The target items differ depending on the story: Story 1: It is Mapico's birthday, and the task is to collect cheese as her present. Story 2: Mappy wishes to marry Mapico, and must collect wedding rings. Story 3: Mappy and Mapico are having a Christmas party, and Christmas trees must be collected. Story 4: It is Mappy Jr.'s birthday, and the task is to collect baseballs for his present. After completing Story 4, it loops back to the first story. There are eight areas with various unique features, and Goro wears costumes corresponding to each theme: Railroad Town Western World Tropical World Jungle World Pirate World Ghost Town Seventh Avenue Milky Town Gameplay The gameplay is similar to the original Mappy, where the player must collect items and avoid enemies with the assistance of trampolines that will break if jumped on too many times before landing (Jungle World being the one exception to this). Unlike the original, the doors and Microwave Doors are not present, and instead stage specific counterattack items can be used. Mappy can perform a short jump to trigger these items as well as collect the target items; he can also jump over the Meowkies if timed well. In addition, Mappy can carry a number of distraction items (up to 15) to temporarily stop enemies from pursuing: Cat Toys - Meowkies will dance around these, and the players can harmlessly pass them by. Goro will not be affected. Gold Coin - Goro will dance around this and not harm Mappy. Meowkies will not be affected. Silver Vine Pots - Meowkies will lose consciousness. Goro will not be affected. Fish - This will bounce forward in the direction Mappy's face. Both Goro and the Meowkies will chase it. In the Ghost Town, Mappy will use a flashlight to ward off the ghosts, and can travel the stage with a balloon.
