Yu Yu Hakusho: Horobishi Mono no Gyakushu is a side-scrolling beat-em up game for the Sega Gamegear handheld, based on Yoshihiro Togashi’s classic shonen anime about spirit detective Yuusuke Urameshi and the colorful cast of demons, humans, and otherworldly beings that make up his list of friends and enemies.
Now, it’s all about context with retro games: it looks like crap now, but during the time when it was released, Yu Yu Hakusho: Horobishi Mono no Gyakushu was a good looking game that took advantage of the limited hardware that was available. Compared to other games released on the Sega Gamegear, Yu Yu Hakusho: Horobishi Mono no Gyakushu was colorful, well-animated, and had enough variety in the settings and enemies to keep you playing all the way to the end.
The mechanics for the game is simple. You choose one of the four main characters (either Yuusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama, or Hiei) and have them travel from left to right of the screen, beating enemies along the way. Each of the characters have different attributes (speed, attack, etc.) rated from A to D, which affect how they handle. They also have unique mob-clearing special attacks, which come in the form of a cutscene.

Official Trailer for Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4
Bamco Games has just released the first official trailer for CyberConnect2's Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 during Jump Festa. The trailer is more cinematic than gameplay footage-y, but considering that the game is known for gameplay that looks like anime scenes, it can be hard to tell. All you should know is that it focuses mainly on the fight between Hashirama and Madara, and judging by their looks and dialogue - it is set during their final duel when they were still alive.
You can check out the trailer after the cut:
