Doraemon 4: Nobita to Tsuki no Oukoku

Published by Epoch in 1995, this SNES side-scrolling action game features an original story in which Nobita and friends are invited to explore a secret kingdom on the Moon. Players rotate control across all five characters — Doraemon, Nobita, Shizuka, Gian, and Suneo — each equipped with unique gadgets: the Take-copter for flight, the Air Cannon for ranged attacks, and a baseball bat for close combat, among others. Stages span forests, caves, and lunar palaces, each capped with a large boss fight. Charming pixel art paired with the anime's iconic theme music gives the game broad appeal, and the variety of character abilities makes it one of the more replayable entries in the Doraemon SNES series.
