An overhead view military shoot em up ported to the Turbografx 16/PCE by NEC, originally, it's by Data East, the same people who brought us Karate Champ, Karnov, Heavy Barrel, Bad Dudes vs. Dragon Ninja, and Fighters History (which got them in legal hot water with Capcom over half a decade ago)
Enter "Snake" and "Eagle", two commandos engaging in guerilla warfare to rescue the President who's been kidnapped and held hostage by an insane dictator.
Another game I did'nt have and wanted for my TG-16.

I had a TurboGrafx as a kid (... yeah... I was the only one) and loved it.
Bloody Wolf though.. man I spent hours playing this game. Don't forget about Bloody Wolf 2 and 3 ;-) (Codes you get after beating the game that add extra stuff like hovering in 3)

great game back in the day. i wish the turbo grafx had more support from developers. it was a good system with a good library of games at the start.

Mercs came out in 1990. This was released in 1989.

And Mercs, if it was already out at that time. Or maybe that game was inspired by the submarine boss.
