November 1988 NES Update

2 decent games emerged from November '88:  Blaster Master and Bubble Bobble.  While Bubble Bobble was the clear recognizable game, I felt Blaster Master was the better game.  However, I think gaming markets were starting to try to reach out to a female audience with simple games that they could enjoy, where it wasn't just shooting at everything, and besides Mario, Bubble Bobble was the first game I remember my sisters legitimately playing while having fun.  Bubble Bobble is more of a quick fix, while Blaster Master is a game you'll need a little more time for.  Either are good choices though.
