SNES U.N. Squadron (Area 88)

[ChaosZero]

I never owned an SNES in my life but a cousin of mine did. Nintendo, why in hell don't you port this into the Wii Virtual Console.

[ShiryuGL]

@ChaosZero Sadly because the game is from CAPCOM and it's a licensed one. I doubt Capcom still has the rights to distribute a Area 88 game, which is this games original name, a popular series of manga/anime in Japan.

...Chocolate Plane

[Corruptor366]

can anybody tell me why My plane stops shooting when I keep holding it

[SweetKooshy]

this game was my childhood. has to be one of the best games for super nintendo

[Morendo13]

Does anyone else notice the character select/stage select music sounds suspiciously like "Chocolate Rain"? Go ahead and look it up. I'll wait...

[CaptainGaruda]

Hmmmm, this game is made by Capcom, right? I wonder if they put Shin Kazama a playable character in Marvel vs. Capcom...

[akfg4life]

Why the hell does it say "Extinct" when recovering?

[ShiryuGL]

@akfg4life It's refering to the onboard fire. =)

[akfg4life]

@ShiryuGL Hm..shouldn't it say Extinguished or something then? Must be bad translation.

[ShiryuGL]

@akfg4life Maybe out of letter space... =P

[Leomerya12]

@ShiryuGL I just told her/him that extinct is a synonym for extinguished. You're right though, they used it because of letter space. Learn something new everyday.

[Leomerya12]

@akfg4life Extinct means Extinguished. I had to look it up myself as well.

[Sa1KoRo]

[Chernobog2]

yeah, cuz it's totally illegal to play games on anything but the hardest difficulty, even if you're just doing some exhibition gameplay.

[Denta92]

I'VE GOTTA HAVE THIS GAME!

Thank god we still have our Snes! ^^

[VirtualBilly]

what the fuck dude, seriously? i used to have a crush on shin! fuck! dammit! shit!! i'm a latent homosexual!!!

[WeissMond]

Sorry to break your hearts guys, but Shin is not a cute girl, but a cute...guy. I made that mistake too, but I was only a kid. I learned that he's a guy around 10 years after this game was released? Right around there.

[Scike]

@WeissMond

That's so funny, because I and all my friends made that mistake when I first got the game back in 92 or whenever it was released. I used to take a lot of flack from my friends because I always chose Shin.

"You're using a girl!? You're a homo!" was the typical response.

It wasn't until I picked up an issue of Area 88 a few years later that I learned the truth.

[WeissMond]

I wonder what your friends have to say now.

[xXEdXx17]

I thought Shin was a girl?

[ShiryuGL]

I assure you, he is not. xP

[Groongers]

What? After all this years! oh the treachery

[ProphetRay]

@xXEdXx17 thats what i thought too

[MattTheSpratt]

I never really liked this version.

Actually, I guess I'm not really a fan of the SNES, it just felt sluggish compared with the Mega Drive.

It's a good console, I won't deny it, but I don't play it at the best of times.

[TAz69x]

The golden age of gaming ^_^

[ZIoN9o]

i looooove this game <3

[iiiiSergiiii]

I miss this game in my snes, mine got stolen along with the console :'(

[nicesweater]

Capcom games always had awesome music.

[ArchonXR3]

great music for it's time

[FireNationDeathWish]

Let's see you play it and do better!

[mignonhenne]

[fodao42]

My God - I haven't seen this game in years. I must have beaten it, quite literally, hundreds of times as a teenager.

The music was so awesome!

Thanks for the post!

[williamboi1]

[machriderx]

Whoa, Tay Zonday stole from Area 88?

[figment1988]

that's what i heard, but the arcade version's plane selection music apparently sounds a lot more like Chocolate Rain

[Matakaz]

This game is the best snes game, without doubt

[PresidentBagel]

Holy crap, that really does sound like chocolate rain.

[bluerx7]

[Aquaslasher]

Wow. It feels so long since I last played this game. Thank you for bringing back some memories.

[Nuh]

This game was just too incredible to forget.

When there are any shooters released, I think of three games instantly.

1) U.N Squadron (Area 88).

2) Radiant Silvergun.

3) Ikaruga.

[evilwarcow]
