Super Multitap
Super Bomberman was originally bundled with a multitap device to allow more than 2 players to play simultaneously. The Super Multitap was long and grey with four controller ports in a row on one side. It plugged into either of the controller ports on the SNES deck. This meant a total of 5 controllers could be plugged in with the fifth controller plugged into 2nd port on the SNES. Although Super Bomberman, as well as Super Bomberman 2, only allowed the use of the first 4 controllers to play the game, other Bomberman games: 3, 4 and 5 allowed to use three to five controllers and the 5th controller would allow a sound test to be accessed by pressing the R shoulder button on the option screen.
Hudson later released a second multitap (the Super Multitap 2) on its own for people that had purchased Super Bomberman unbundled, or one of the other multitap enabled games. This second version was designed in the shape of a Bomberman's head and had the two controller ports on the front and one on each side. It was also designed to be used with future games. Eventually there were 54 Super NES games that utilised the multitap. However, they were predominately sports games.
