Switch
Shoot Em Up
Mech robots scrapping it out in this conversion of the rare Saturn shooter Wolf Fang. Seemingly inspired by Cybernator on the Super Famicom with the of the era obligatory FMV to establish its 32bit pedigree. The Assault Suits Valken influence can be seen in the tiny humans on screen such as when you have to hit the ejector seat from the mech but still battle bravely on. The mech attributes can be set which makes a big difference to your in-game powers. Skull Fang is an old school vertical scrolling shoot ’em up with arcade roots in its Data East heritage. All very nicely presented as you’d expect from a Japanese title. Tough, but not too unforgiving for grizzled shooter heads.

Zunou Senkan Galg (Cart Only)

Famicom Cart
Shoot Em Up
Vertical shooting action as players ships zip along up the screen with the secret to fast progress being to nip enemy ships in the bud nice and early before the screen can get too full of bullets and bombs. As an extra strand, players must collect spare parts in order to clear the stage. The chip tunes effects and old school gameplay are the likes of which Genki pines for in the face of bullet hell, bullet storms and bullet waves of the modern STG. Keeping it simple is no criticism.
