The Japanese version of Super Magnetic Neo, identical to the original cartoon charm. The magnetic concept stays brilliant, controls instinctive and humor bubbly. A Sega gem.

Is Super Magnetic Niuniu still worth playing in 2026?
The Japanese version of Cave's platformer, Super Magnetic Niuniu shares the core with Super Magnetic Neo: a clever magnetization mechanic, colorful levels and a difficulty that pulls no punches. Playing with polarities stays fresh and leads to ingenious passages. Like its Western counterpart, it suffers from a camera and controls that have aged. For lovers of original 3D platformers and collectors of the Japanese release, it is an endearing curiosity well worth lingering over.
