Title: "Ding Dong" what game? Old mag advertisment

Retro Game Club podcast mentioned an ad from "Game Shock" in the EGM 50th issue listing a game called "Ding Dong". I thought it'd be a fun thread to see what forum members guesses are of what it could be.

Based on the other games listed and the pricing, I'm assuming it's a HuCard released in '93. My guess it's a Momotarou game that the importers could not translate.

Why not Hani in the Sky or one of the other iterations of Hani?

LOL at the Hani guess.

Ding doko Dong, better known as Don Doko Don?

I'm more interested in seeing Super R-Type for PC Engine. :P

I'm sure that no one who ordered it from Game Shock was disappointed with their purchase.

I wonder if they advertised Kiki KaiKai as "Pocky and Rocky"?
