3	''Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa'' (''Bio Miracle - I'm Upa'') is a PlatformGame made by Creator/{{Konami}} in 1988 for the Famicom Disk System. It was never physically released in North America, but was available on the UsefulNotes/{{Wii}}'s Virtual Console before being delisted following the termination of the Wii Shop Channel.

5	The story follows Prince Upa, who comes from a long line of brave fighters. One day he accidentally breaks an urn, [[SealedEvilInACan releasing the evil spirit Zai]] upon the world. Zai uses his evil magic to steal all the babies in the kingdom, and knocks out all the adults by stealing their dreams. Now, it's up to him to [[SaveTheWorld save his kingdom]] and rescue the babies Zai captured.

7	!! This game provides examples of:
8	* AdultsAreUseless: Zai's spell steals all the dreams of the adults in the kingdom, rendering them lethargic and apathetic to the situation.
9	* BigEater: Upa, all thanks to the two "digging" levels where he literally eats his way through a giant cake and a labyrinth of cheese respectively.
10	* EdibleAmmunition: Flying elephants called Zoaras drop explosive onigiri.
11	* FastTunnelling: In Worlds 1-2 and 6-2, where Upa must eat through cake and cheese.
12	* ImprobableWeapon: A magic rattle, a gift from the fairy that was sealed in the same urn Zai was.
13	* InflatingBodyGag: Your rattle is capable of puffing up enemies. Inflated enemies can be rode on, and used to attack enemies simply by bumping into them.
14	* LevelAte: World 1 is themed around sweets, World 2 is fruits and vegetables themed, and World 6 is dairy themed. Fittingly, they're each named Sweet World, Vegetable World, and Milky World respectively.
15	* MonstrousSeal: Downplayed with Azarashin, a top hat-wearing seal who is a boss in the Ice World (World 3). He's a dangerous foe, but he isn't grotesque or scary-looking like most examples of the trope, instead looking rather dapper.
16	* {{Portmanteau}}: One of the enemies in the I.C. World is a snake with a plug for a head named Snakun[[note]]すねーくん[[/note]], a which is a combination of ''snake'' and the Japanese honorific ''kun''.
17	* RecurringBoss: Katoribu, a large pig-like creature with an open mouth is fought at the end of nearly every platformer stage. It continues to appear to fight Upa until the penultimate level of the game (World 7-2).
18	* SpikesOfDoom: Later levels feature protruding pencil points of pain.
19	* SpringsSpringsEverywhere: Spiral notebook bindings.
20	* ToyTime: World 7.
