Good morning Bubsy fans!! Here on April Fools Day we finally got a glimpse of the Jaguar Bubsy VidPro Card. NO FOOLIN'!
So VidPro cards were this piece of cardboard, about the size of a larger post card, that they would use to display available games, usually at Toys R' Us, but I believe this was also done at Kaybee Toy Stores and a few other places, and this was done in the 80s and into the 90s. Here we have the Bubsy 1 Postcard sitting among three VidPro cards as a way of
Yesterday Kris Randazzo on Twitter showed a nice collection which lot of us Bubsy Fan Server goers were encouraging and chiming in on:
I complimented on how the Gameboy 2 box, the one of the lower right, was one impressive box to find. I shared a picture of my collection, and got to thinking, what other variants are out there? This is has been something I have wondered for two decades since I got my first Bubsy game in 1999 for the Atari Jaguar.
Tonight,
Today is the day when the Nintendo Switch version of "Bubsy: Paws on Fire" will be released and there are many who couldn't be more excited.
Well, ok, dozens... just kidding. We know at least 1,000 people are excited for the new Bubsy release since the Limited Run release with the one thousand available copies sold out the first day! Congrats to all who managed to get a copy!
Over on the Officious Bubsy Fan Group the fans are looking forward to the official
So this morning a shout out was going out to Awesomehaig and Mayan People who have been two people who have put some love into the Bubsy Bobcat Wiki. This is an ongoing labor of love of many Bubsy fans. Today's article was inspired by them.
Over on the Officious Bubsy Fan Group on Discord there has been wonderful showing of things that Honza 55 44 has discovered on the latest Bubsy game "Paws on Fire". While there has been much uncovered, such as the fact shown from earlier gam

@everyone It is here! Welcome to the REAL 23rd Anniversary of Bubsy 3D! And also to the release of the fan made Bubsy comic, Bubsy: Cat-astrophic Capers! Featuring the works of Spongefox, Campa, GastroReid, woolietrash and myself, to name a few, it is a 16 page fun bit of work that took a few months before it's grand release! Just want to thank everyone who joined in on this. All of you are awesome, especially those who couldn't make it on
So SpongeFox, another admin of the Bubsy Bobcat Fan Blog, came up with this great art recently... More art from other artists to come. But the submission from SpongeFox reminds me of this great video from the Nostalgia Critic. Rob Paulsen as some may recall did the voice for Bubsy in the animated pilot. Not something he is reported to be crazy about, but we like him anyway. (and I think he did an excellent Bubsy, only recently surpassed by the Woolies Strike Back Bubsy voice.) E

The Bubsy Plush Sightings
(Started July 5, 2019, updated July 15, 2023)
Currently we know through the interwebs there are a grand total of ten known Bubsy plushes from back in Bubsy 1 and Bubsy 2 development days that still exist. We're sure there are more. JennyN (mentioned later in this article) and her father, who worked for Accolade during the Bubsy 2 development, mentioned there was once a drawer full of Bubsy plushies at Accolade. These plushes were handed out to devel

So this was originally written in the "Why the hell did I not buy this?!" thread here on AtariAge.
"a thread for items that you thought you would never need/want but looking back, you think you should have gotten it. "
Got many collections but Bubsy Bobcat is one of the few that I've tried to hunt down everything possible for and try to buy it. Must admit, I like Bubsy collecting because I can afford the occasional thing tha

Hey fans of the Bubster, thanks to MKdoes711 we now have a nice manual for this game. I've updated the first message of this thread with it. Or you can click here to download the manual.
I've added pictures showing the development progression of the sprites through the alpha and release revisions, and pictures and links of this game on other platforms.
We've had some Bubsy fans on the Bubsy Officious Dischord server recently find
Got a new version of Kitt'N Kaboodle for the Atari 2600/VCS
This one has:
* Improved sprites (Jumping, running, and climbing.)
* Change of the logo from "Bubsy 0" to "Kitt'N Kaboodle"
* New final level with item (one of Virgil's atoms) from "Paws on Fire" to celebrate that game release.
Download latest version.
The latest revision was prompted when Welfz Twingo Furs ran some ideas by me for a version of the game he had in mind. I created
** IMPORTANT UPDATE JULY 8, 2019 **
I believe it was in the aftermath of the release of Woolies Strike Back that I saw a cool picture of a Bubsy statue floating around on twitter...
It was pretty cool. For whatever reason I didn't track it. But I have found out the (possible) rest of the story in recent times. First off the was donated to a charity event called "Games Done Quick"
For some reason Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap by AC/DC comes to m

As previously mentioned, we took questions for Faran Thomason (Producer of the Atari Jaguar game of Bubsy) for an interview, and FINALLY we have the interview on Youtube! He was a lot of fun to talk to and hopefully we'll cover other Atari Jaguar games in the future.
Here is the complete picture that SpongeFox drew while we were interviewing him.
Coming up, the interview with Michael Berlyn. Stay tuned!
This was such cool news I had to post it now. Bubsy has been hacked into Sonic 2.
This is too funny. Check it out on this You Tube video:
And more discussion of it here:

Looks like they exaggerate the falling damage and just let him die a lot. But still want to see if I can play this. I have often thought hacking Bubsy into Zool on the Jaguar would also be fun.
If you try this hack let us k
I was cruiz'in Youtube today and found an interview with Bubsy Bobcat which was actually informative and funny. Enjoy!!

In the month of July there was a review made of my favorite Bubsy game, Fractured Furry Tales for the Atari Jaguar. It is a hard game, and basically all reviews I have seen for it for those playing for the first time generally hate it.
So the game reviewer "Games I F*cking Hate" was going to town on the Fractured Furry Tales, and some points were good, and others I was watching and thinking "Yeh I remember when that was a problem", "I remember when that confused me", etc. Ahh m
First off, hope you had a great Christmas and Happy New Year.
I can think of no better present than playing a game of Bubsy with a Lara Croft version of Bubsy. A friend of mine when playing Legacy said he liked to play female characters. The reason why was if he had to play the game for hours on end he wanted to look at the back of a woman rather than a dude. I totally get that.
So here we get to see the scenery of Bubsy 3D improved greatly with the Bubsy going from a Bobcat to a hot
Well Hi everyone! Hope you had a great valentine's day And if not, stay strong... Thanks for that SpongeFox! We got some great news and some good laughs in this February edition of the Bubsy blog. I liked this video released a month ago. Bubsy HD, not much to speak of, but good to see someone giving a crack at making a Bubsy game so who knows what it might eventually develop into!
HOLD THE PHONE!!! I was going to post some ho-hum videos about Bubsy Two-Fur videos but
Here at the Bubsy Fan Blog we are liking the positives of Bubsy more or less going forward. I will admit, I was actually glad to see a review that highlights some of the positive aspects of the game.
Yes. There are are actually positive aspects. And I have to especially agree with number four below:
1) Comments Bubsy makes.
2) Swimming Stages
3) Bubsy 3D references Bubsy 1 and Bubsy 2.
4) Great animations.
Check out the review here...
Hope you are having a great h
Evening Bubsy fans! So this is where I stop into YouTube to see what new stuff is going on with Bubsy this month. Years from now it will be probably videos that used to be there. First off wasn't the New Horizons past Pluto a blast last month? Loved it. Ok, so what kinda of activities are we seeing with Bubsy this month? Well a lot of reviews, which are basically people
Yawn. But according to Vinesauce Vinny who was extra busy making reviews both the Bubsy 3D and the Bubsy 3D
Ok one Youtube link published in April of the history of Bubsy in seven minutes this is a really good article made in the perspective of those that actually like Bubsy, which makes this unique. And towards the end of the video you see why the perspective was so different than most reviews out there.
Wasn't that fun?
Here is another fun gem I found which is actually an old entry: What if Bubsy was put into a new(er) more modern game?
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
WELCOME TO THE *100th* ENTRY OF THE BUBSY FAN BLOG!!!
So what I like to do is Cruise Google and YouTube every so often to see if new things are being done with or to the Bubster. And I found some things. First off thanks to faithful fan SpongeFox for the entry image! She has a lot of great art so check it out and like it every chance you get.
