A 1994 Banpresto Super Famicom platformer, Japan-exclusive, based on Akira Toriyama's manga of the same name. The cart is culturally interesting as one of the rare direct adaptations of the Ackman manga in its contemporary Famicom context. Intact boxed CIB with cardboard sleeve and illustrated manual is valued by Toriyama collectors beyond Dragon Ball, and the cote climbs steadily, sustained by physical scarcity and by the Toriyama aura that transcends his minor works.
Is Go Go Ackman still worth playing in 2026?
Go Go Ackman, by Banpresto, is a Japanese platformer inspired by Akira Toriyama's manga, namely a cheeky demon hero crossing varied stages with proudly deadpan humor. The handling is precise, the difficulty progressive and the art close to the Toriyama style. The cartridge stayed Japanese but no notable language barrier hinders progress. Recommended to fans of overlooked 16 bit platformers and to anyone curious about a sharper Toriyama than the better known vein.
